2000 AD Prog 1383 – 31st March 2004 continues the gripping run of one of Britain’s longest-running and most beloved sci-fi anthologies. This issue delivers a powerful combination of dystopian law enforcement, mythical barbarism, and occult horror—everything readers have come to expect from 2000 AD, delivered with polish and punch.

Taking centre stage is the legendary Judge Dredd, whose role as the final word in justice across Mega-City One never fails to compel. In this instalment, Dredd is pulled into yet another complex conflict within the city’s decaying infrastructure. Expect taut action, loaded dialogue, and societal commentary—brought vividly to life by expressive, high-contrast artwork that captures the grit and menace of his brutal world.

Elsewhere in the prog, the savage, blood-soaked journey of Slaine presses forward, rich in Celtic myth and primal violence. These pages are layered with raw energy and sweeping visuals that honour the epic tone of the saga. At the same time, Caballistics, Inc. maintains the anthology’s dark edge with a tale steeped in secret histories, black ops, and paranormal entities—offering a chilling, slow-burn story for fans of the occult.

The creative quality in Prog 1383 is, as always, top tier. From sharply plotted scripts to varied artistic styles—from gritty urban landscapes to eerie, otherworldly designs—this issue reflects the diversity and depth of the 2000 AD creative teams. The contrast between the strips adds to the reading experience, making each story pop without losing the magazine’s overall tone and identity.

Whether you're a seasoned reader of 2000 AD or a collector hunting down individual progs from the early 2000s, Prog 1383 stands as a strong example of the comic’s power to combine thrilling narratives with daring artwork.
