Not a bad prog. Thistlebone wrapped up nicely, even if nothing spectacular happened - The whole story was more a series of connected creepy events than a cohesive plot, but it worked for me.
I liked Dredd, though was also a bit confused by Dredd's decision at the end. Nice art but there was something very strange about it - it was kind of like the artist had never seen a Dredd strip before but someone read a few of them out to him. The Lawmaster's skinny wheels were particularly weird; it gave it the look of my very unimpressive 125cc Suzuki.
Rogue was a decent little tale but I like my Rogue strips morally ambiguous, rather than a white hats / black hats dynamic like this. The whole idea that Southers never commit atrocities sounded like Rogue was drinking the Milli-com Kool-Aid. Bagman had a pretty brave stab at it at the end of Cinnabar, though maybe that hadn't happened yet in the timeline. I like Paul Marshall but I don't think he's ever bettered Firekind, and Rogue's torso and arms fit together a bit oddly.
I'll get back to the rest of the prog soon.
