2000 AD Prog 1449 – 27th July 2005 delivers another thrilling instalment from the pages of the UK’s most influential and enduring weekly comic anthology. This issue captures everything that makes 2000 AD a genre-defining force—razor-sharp storytelling, dark humour, and artwork that’s as dynamic as it is daring.

Leading the charge is Judge Dredd, the iconic lawman of Mega-City One, facing yet another challenge that tests the limits of his authority in a city teetering between chaos and control. The narrative dives deep into the complexities of justice and fear, wrapped in gritty visuals and densely constructed panels that bring the concrete jungle of Dredd’s world to life.

Also continuing strong is the saga of Slaine, the legendary warrior drawn from Celtic myth, whose journey through a magical and blood-soaked landscape is rendered in lush, textured art. This chapter continues to explore themes of fate, strength, and the eternal battle between light and shadow. Each frame bursts with visceral energy, underpinned by poetic narration and mythic grandeur.

Rounding out the issue are additional high-concept tales that exemplify 2000 AD’s fearless approach to sci-fi and fantasy storytelling. From speculative futures to morally charged drama, each strip adds a fresh dimension to the prog, showcasing the publication’s unmatched versatility.

A standout issue from the 2005 run, Prog 1449 will appeal to collectors, completists, and readers who appreciate complex characters, socially relevant narratives, and striking artwork, all housed in a neatly curated anthology format.
