Week 3 of Round 3 is 'One and Done' week with no fewer than 3 of the surviving Future Shockesque stories appearing. They all have very interesting ties and ... well we'll see. In my mind though, intriguing as those clashes are, is a modern masters face-off that is one of the ties of the Round for me, not everyone I imagine, but for me...
Are the two female protagonists here really comparable? One a rather cliche thief with a heart. Who so far has bested Roadkill and Finn (good result that!) the other a dark and twisted war veteran. Damaged as much by her brutal father as the war on NuEarth. A full, rounded and fascinating character, victor over Soul Sisters... can you tell I'm leaning one way on this one....

It's the best thing to come out of the Rogue Trooper universe and a modern classic.

Poor Rose. She was fine, but Jaegir is a modern 2000 AD classic, so: Jaegir.
No commentary needed, really - Jaegir is a better story, with better writing and art.
Jaegir. Probably my favourite of all Rennie's strips.

Really is nothing to say here to justify a vote for Jaegir
My only complaint about Jaegir is that I want to see it in the Prog more frequently.

Jaegir. So good! Just waiting for a second TPB.

Well there's a day to go, but not much competition left here, unsurprisingly. Last day votes won't affect things but will still celebrate things, so get um in.

Bit of an unfair match this one.... Jaegir please boss!
VOTING CLOSED
We're not going to get many of these anymore as the competition gets harder and harder but Jaegir just stormed this one and got the first (and possibly only?) shut out of Round 3. Poor Rose O'Rion was simply blown away and
Jaegir
didn't need to clone votes to get to Round 4.
