2000AD Prog 2112 (Rebellion)
The latest issue of 2000AD hits the newsagents nationwide today with a cover that will bring back memories for comic readers of a certain age. Black Max is back. I hinted at this in my review of the Christmas special but didn't want to spoil the surprise.
Black Max of course originated in the short lived but excellent Thunder comic and carried on when the comic merged with the Lion until it's subsequent demise. A great story set in World War One with flying machines and giant bats.

Max has been woven into the continuity of Fiends on the Eastern Front, a group of vampires from Roumania. Max has a plan and needs the Fiends help whether they want to or not.
Judge Dredd appears in a self contained story The Eternity Hotel where citizens go to live out their fantasies. There's a problem and Joe has to investigate whilst hunting for a murderer trying to hide in this dream world.
Brink and Skip Tracer continue with both ending in rather shocking cliffhangers.
Thargs 3rillers ends the comic with part one of The Scorched Zone set in a dystopian future where the tropics have become too hot for human or other life. The UN has developed methods of combating the Sun's heat but there's a problem and it needs investigating doesn't it?
