Comic Book Review – 2000 AD Prog #2000
Mark Allen reviews 2000 AD Prog #2000… It’s a miracle for any publication to reach its 2,000th issue, let alone a cult British sci-fi anthology known for its weird sense of humour and pulpy six-pager Future Shocks. Most superhero comics undergo dozens of reboots, renumberings and reproduction of new fans just to keep up interest in […]
