Judge Dredd: An Honest Man by Kenneth Niemand (w) Tom Foster (a) Chris Blythe (c) Annie Parkhouse
We’re coming to the end of this arc, and there is a fair amount of action in the issue. I like the thinking going on here, and Dredd coming in just ruins it! Next issue will be interesting.
Terror Tales: Wunza by John Tomlinson (w) Eion Coveney, Alessandro Vitti (a) Simon Bowland (l)
A classic-feeling Terror Tales, with some excellent puns going on! I like the way it’s told and it’s pretty frantic!
Hope: In The Shadows by Guy Adams (w) Jimmy Broxton (a) Jim Campbell (l)
An interesting issue, and some old, dark magic in there too. It’s a break away from the film studio, but no less dark. I like the way this was laid out, in that final panel.
Brink: Mercury Retrograde by Dan Abnett (w) INJ Culbard (a) Simon Bowland
A lot of talking heads in this issue, but it is very compelling in a journalistic way. like the way it was told and the potential implications. The questions is – where next?
Fiends of the Eastern Front: 1963 by Ian Edginton (w) Tiernen Trevallion (a) Annie Parkhouse (l)
A satisfying completion to the arc, and something to look forward to going forward. I like the way it was told and revealed. There is something for the bleak future too. The final panels were well told and shown.
