I read a lot of comics. 2000AD is still the one to beat. Read Full Review
Strontium DogandDreddkept up their usual level of excellence this week and in addition to the regular titles we got a one-off episode ofTerror Talescalled “Phase Shift.” The gag here is pretty dumb, but I don't really care at all because of Hitchcock's pencils. If you aren't head-over-heels in love with the first page of this comic, independent of anything that is said or any plot machinations, then you and I cannot be friends. I believe Hitchcock penciled a story in the Christmas Special issue of the Progs at the turn of the year, and I remember being similarly impressed, even though that story was also lackluster. Anyway, my point here is that if you see the name “David Hitchcock” on something, assuming it's not a name also shared by some Winnebago insurance salesman from Duluth, you should check the comic out.

-- JUDGE DREDD // BREAKING BUD: I'm loving this, Wagner always writes good Dredd, even when the focus is on a character we've never heard of. -- TERROR TALES // PHASE SHIFT: Weird, but not bad for such a short story -- SLĂINE // PRIMORDIAL: This one is just Slaine hacking up dudes... So it is one of the better installments. -- GREY AREA // LOCKED IN: Another great entry, nice character development. -- STRONTIUM DOG // THE STIX FIX: Strontium Dog is just a walking target, lol. -- OVERALL: Much stronger issue now that Orlok is finished.
