BORAG THUNGG, EARTHLETS! Call me The Mighty Tharg, the ebullient emerald editor of this awe-inspiring anthology!
We blast into February with a couple of new stories — Judge Dredd deals with the continuing fallout from the Atlantis attack in ‘The Hagger They Fall’ by Rob Williams, Arthur Wyatt and Paul Marshall, and we return to the edge of time for the final arc of Kek-W and John Burns’ historyspanning series The Order.
We last left Anna Kohl and co being attacked by the shadowcreatures that have been infiltrating the fractured chronology — now, in ‘Heart of Darkness’, see whether she can be reunited with her lost love Ritterstahl as her compatriots battle the forces of the evil Francis Bacon!
