Enjoyed this and happy to see more, the additional episodes were nice too.

Never read the original comics for some of the same reasons stated above, after flicking through TPB of this at the time.

Just back my holidays but I see Dr X endured the wrath of the letters community in the latest Input page - I hope you can leave the house without police protection from the baying mob!

And no plate pics?

Done!

Not at all sure about that. It's terribly fucking po-faced — it wouldn't have killed them to put a joke in it. The dialogue creaks with faux-Tolkien riffs and the whole thing plays like LotR with added tits and gore.

Thanks Jim, I will avoid that. Doesn't sound like my cuppa at all.

This^^^ but I couldn't be ersed googling it

Tough choice, sooo much nostalgia for both but from different periods, still Zenith wins for sheer pizzazz!!

First and formost... and I hate to start on a whine - but who slapped that tagline onto the cover like that. Placement is horrible. Its really kills the image for me - yuck.

Inside... well things don't start great to be honest - but luckly things do get better.

Cadet Dredd - I dunno some stuff happens, its action packed, should be exciting but its all a bit empty. Also at times the art is poor. I'm all for interesting and dynamic takes but that image of Joe leaping page 10 panel 5 is just plain confusing and there are other examples - the crashing through the glass on the next page a prime example. So this is one of the weakest Cadet Dredds I can remember.

Renk - well the art is better but its a giant shoulder shrug of a story for me. I'm not engaged by Renk as a character and that's pretty much a fatal flaw for a strip they pretty much have to carry. I have to be honest I didn't even notice they only had one arm when its explicity stated so that's embarrassing for me. Alas it just goes to show how little I was drawn in!

Future Shocks arh we're finally on a upswing. Loved this one. Steve Roberts art is fun and energetic. The story is a nice playful parable. Nice one - almost the best thing in the Prog...

Which I was expecting to be Department K cos I chuffin' love this thrill but this outing was a little rushed and could have been served with more room to play with the fun idea. The art by Nick Dyer was fantastic however. In moment reminded me of Ian Kennedy a bit. Good but not great.

Unlike 'Splorers which is just perfect Regened. Fun, playful and entertaining. Fantastic yucky story. Loved in and the art was to die for.

So yeah the Prog was a bit hit and miss but over all just about more hit than miss so we'll give it a pass.

This^^^ says it all, but my additional whine is that font on the cover and final page.

Journals of Luke Kirby take that twinkletoes!

Endtimes more like!

maybe its just me, but given Megacity's ethnic make up isn't that Sausage fest very very white/pink?

Hope it eases off and you get relief, just about to send the next thrillpack!
