RSS Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 Greetings Earthlets, and welcome to the first bumper-sized edition of Shot Glass of Rocket Fuel, my new <i>2000 AD</i> review series. For those of you who aren't familiar with 2000 AD, it's a sci-fi anthology title created in 1977, back when the year 2000 seemed like a long way off and a children's anthology title wasn't expected to last quite that long.

Shining knight Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 It is always nice to see more 2000ad related stuff here... A little thing I loved about 1807 was the rather surprising way Dredd, Simping detective and Low life suddenly turned into one long 18 page story. judge dredds investigation into the murder of a wally squad judge spirals into simping when we find out not only did Jack point kill the judge but he may have had his mind altered by someone within the judge system. Meanwhil on luna 1 professional alan moore impersonator and wally squad member dirty frank has had his mind altered by the same mystery person who did the same to point. A genuinly cool moment in a comic series which continues to surprise even after 30 odd years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenny Evil Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Yeah. Incredibly impressed by the massive amount of co-ordination that must have been involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 Great stuff dude, to the point that I actually decided to read along and get digital copies of the issues you covered. The Dan-E Cannon stuff alone makes it worthwhile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenny Evil Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 Hooray, another convert! Yeah, the current run is tremendous. A lot of people are claiming that it's probably one of the strongest runs ever, and I'm one of them. I usually look forward to getting the prog each week, but this is the first time I've ever felt impatient waiting for a week to get it. The ending of prog 1811 was spectacular and I can't wait to see what happens in 1812. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted November 26, 2012 Report Share Posted November 26, 2012 Only got progs 1800 through 1810 on my Nexus 7, hopefully it catches my interest enough to go for the lastest issues. Take note Marvel, cheaper digital copies create a potential new subscriber for 2000AD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
