2000AD Prog 968 - 1st December, 1995 delivers another outstanding instalment in the legacy of Britain’s most enduring science fiction anthology. Brimming with cerebral paranoia, brutal conflict, and outlaw action, this prog reflects the depth and creativity that define 2000AD’s bold mid-90s output. Topped with a striking Vector 13 cover by Cliff Robinson, it is a must-have for collectors and fans alike.

Leading the charge is Judge Dredd: The Man Who Broke the Law, part one of a two-episode story by Mark Millar, with sharp, clean artwork by Steve Yeowell. This tale challenges the very foundation of Mega-City One’s draconian justice system, as Dredd faces an ideological crisis unlike any other. First appearing here in Prog 968, the story was later reprinted in Rebellion’s Judge Dredd: The Complete Case Files 24 and also featured in Hachette’s Judge Dredd The Mega Collection: Target - Judge Dredd, affirming its narrative weight in the Dredd canon.

The war continues to rage in Rogue Trooper (Friday): Combat Rocks, written by Steve White and brought vividly to life by Steve Tappin. This action-heavy segment is part three of a four-part arc, blending military tactics with bioengineered warfare and intense character introspection. It’s one of the more grounded and gritty storylines for the Rogue Trooper reboot.

Long-time fans of A.B.C. Warriors will relish the continuation of Hellbringer Part 2, an eight-part epic crafted by Pat Mills and Tony Skinner, with the brooding, hyper-detailed artwork of Kevin Walker. These pages blend war-driven mechanical anarchy with philosophical and mythological undertones. It’s no surprise this arc has been collected in both Hamlyn’s Khronicles of Khaos & Hell Bringer and Rebellion’s A.B.C. Warriors Hellbringer, marking it as one of the definitive late-era A.B.C. tales.

Equally rebellious is Chopper: Supersurf 13, which continues to blaze across the skies in part five of its eight-part run. Scripted by Alan McKenzie and illustrated with electric energy by John Higgins, this storyline captures the essence of defiance and underground heroism that made Marlon Shakespeare a cult favourite. The art bursts with colour and motion, reflecting the high-speed tension and subversive undertones of Chopper’s dangerous return to skysurfing.

In this prog, Vector 13: Case Four - Operation Mordred delves into mythic conspiracy and government secrecy. Penned by Peter Hogan, with intricate artwork by Lee Sullivan and colour work by Gina Hart, the story blurs the lines between Arthurian legend and clandestine modern warfare. Vector 13 continues to thrive as a venue for compact, mind-bending narratives that channel the spirit of speculative fiction.

Rounding off the issue is Wireheads: paraSITES - Future King, an expansive cyberpunk saga by Mark Eyles, with dense, experimental art by Mike Hadley. This long-form story spans from Prog 964 to 974 and dives headlong into questions of digital identity, corruption, and human-machine symbiosis. With episode 10 running at double length, this narrative pulls no punches in delivering heavy philosophical payloads alongside jarring cybernetic visuals.

2000AD Prog 968 is a powerful representation of the anthology's rich variety - from hard-edged action and thought-provoking sci-fi to conspiracy thrillers and visual experimentation.
