Previews

[Rio De Fideldo]

The latest Previews has this to say about things to come.

2000 AD PROGS #1388-1391
Britain's award-winning, highly influential weekly sci-fi anthology comic continues to stand at the cutting edge of graphic entertainment after twenty-seven years of continuous publication! The Spring line-up continues in style, with skysurfer Chopper brought back to Mega-City One on a mission of mercy, courtesy of John Wagner, Patrick Goddard and Dylan Teague; undercover Judge Aimee Nixon discovers a conspiracy in ?Low Life? by Rob Williams (Cla$$ War) and Henry Flint (Judge Dredd vs Aliens); there?s deep space drama in A.H.A.B. by Nigel Kitching and Richard Elson; and Cockney street warrior Savage leads the revolution against the invading Volgans, by Pat Mills and Charlie Adlard (The Establishment). Plus: future lawman Judge Dredd investigates some of his most bizarre cases yet, from flesh-hungry Kleggs to Liverpudlian zombies, courtesy of Alan Grant (Lobo), David Roach and Ian Gibson (Boba Fett)!


JUDGE DREDD MEGAZINE #219
Five all-new strip adventures from the worlds of Judge Dredd and beyond! Judge Dredd begins his crusade against the New Mutant Army in ?Damned Ranger? (2 of 3: John Wagner & John Ridgway); Mean Machine?s in love in ?Angel Heart? (2 of 3: John Wagner & David Millgate); witness the fall and fall of the Big Meg?s Greatest Living Actor in ?Whatever Happened To ... Conrad Conn?? (Gordon Rennie & Carlos Trigo); Young Middenface meets a cannibal clan in ?Brigadoom!? (2 of 3: Alan Grant & Patrick Goddard/Dylan Teague); and the Debaucherie Club opens its doors in ?Black Siddha: Kali Yuga? (2 of 6: Pat Mills & Simon Davis). Plus: news, features, interviews and classic British comic thrills, including Charley's War (Pat Mills & Joe Colquhoun).

I'm just glad Savage is fighting Volgans and not the EEC as suggested on this board following EE3.

Hope Lowlife is good. I kind of get sick of Conspiracies in stories.

Cheers Mate,
Scouse zombies...Hooray!

[Pete Wells]

Sounds canny enough, can anyone tell me who Conrad Conn is though?

Cheers,

Pete.

[Rio De Fideldo]

He was the actor who Cal asked to play Judge Dredd in the story of his life.

I think he turned up on a Mega City version of the Word in the Muzik Killer.

Just thinking the other day about how we're due the return of Middenface. Glad to see he's back.

And the Mean Machine and Chopper tales mean I get points in the league.

Thanks for posting those Rio, much appreciated as I can never find the listings in preview.

[Smiley]

Hey, David Roach and Trigo? Nostalgia.

[Rio De Fideldo]

What has Carlos Trigo done before? I don't recognise the name.

[DavidXBrunt]

Nothings listed on the site but Carlos Pino used to do things circa Invasion.

[philt]

Middenface is BACK! - oh joy.....

[Thread Zero]

What has Carlos Trigo done before? I don't recognise the name.

'Trigo' was the artist on the first episode of 'The Visible Man' - don't know if the same one, though.

[Byron Virgo]

Yay! I read about the David Roach Dredd thing in Previews last week and have been bouncing with excitement ever since.

Just a slight correction, but Cal asked Conrad Conn to play himself, not Dredd (who was being played by a chubby dwarf).

Carlos Trigo: any relation to the bloke what started the Trigan Empire on the planet Elekton?

[Smiley]

My mistake. Apparently Carlos is some bloke who drew something called Superhero High.

I was thinking of (Augsuto?) Trigo who worked on 2000AD at the embryonic stage, drawing the first couple of episodes of The Visible Man and the original artist for Harlem Heroes before Dave Gibbons got the gig (the back page of Prog 1 was the only one of Trigo's to see print).

[Devons Daddy]

sounds like the line-up is a solid one.

with some great classic dredd tales of mega city nutty crimes. and some Kleggs. what more could we ask for.

[The Monarch]

 I know who Carlos Trigo is, you are right... he is not the Carlos Trigo who did the visible man, he's just done this thing!
