2000AD Prog 967 - 24th November, 1995 offers a compelling slice of classic British science fiction and comic storytelling, featuring some of the most recognisable names and recurring themes in the history of 2000AD. With a bold and gritty cover by Steve Tappin showcasing Rogue Trooper (Friday), this issue strikes a strong visual presence before the first page is even turned.

Inside, Judge Dredd: C-H-A-M-P! delivers a sharp and fast-paced one-off. Written by Dan Abnett and illustrated by Anthony Williams, it captures the iconic lawman's signature blend of hard-nosed satire and authoritarian commentary. First published here in Prog 967, it was later reprinted in Rebellion’s Judge Dredd: The Complete Case Files 24, marking it as a notable chapter in the Dredd mythos.

The war-torn dystopia continues with Rogue Trooper (Friday): Combat Rocks, the beginning of a four-part arc that spans Progs 967 to 970. With writing from Steve White and intense visuals by Steve Tappin, this storyline explores deeper psychological themes and battlefield trauma, blending action and introspection in a toxic futuristic landscape. The cover ties beautifully into the narrative, offering visual continuity that fans of the character will appreciate.

The mayhem doesn't end there - A.B.C. Warriors: Hellbringer Part 2 continues its electrifying run, crafted by Pat Mills and Tony Skinner, with striking painted art by Kevin Walker. This storyline blends post-apocalyptic action with philosophical undertones, featuring war machines with complex personalities and twisted pasts. Reprinted in Hamlyn’s Khronicles of Khaos & Hell Bringer and Rebellion’s A.B.C. Warriors: Hellbringer, it's considered essential reading for long-time fans.

Meanwhile, Chopper: Supersurf 13 continues its kinetic run through Progs 964 to 971, offering one of the most visually dynamic and thematically rebellious arcs in this era of 2000AD. Scripted by Alan McKenzie and illustrated by John Higgins, it follows Marlon Shakespeare as he returns to the skysurfing circuit. The storytelling here taps into the anti-establishment spirit that helped define the comic’s golden age.

Adding a mysterious twist, Vector 13: Case Three - Heatwave explores sci-fi paranoia and conspiracy in one sharp episode, written by Kevin Gill, with art from Dave D’Antiquis and colour by Junior Tomlin. The secretive tone and cryptic format of the Vector 13 series give this one-off a haunting presence that lingers well beyond its six pages.

Rounding out the prog is Wireheads: paraSITES - Future King, a sprawling techno-thriller by Mark Eyles, with artwork from Mike Hadley. Part of an ambitious 11-episode arc that spans Progs 964 to 974, the story dives deep into digital consciousness and AI ethics. With episode 10 being double-length, it creates momentum and depth as the narrative moves towards its climax.

This prog exemplifies 2000AD's commitment to sharp writing, bold themes, and unforgettable art - a powerful mix of satire, science fiction, and social commentary.
