INTRODUCTION BORAG THUNGG, EARTHLETS! I am The Mighty Tharg, alien editor of the award-winning SF anthology 2000 AD, and I welcome you to this special downloadonly edition of the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic, featuring a selection of the first appearances of some of my most iconic characters! With 2000 AD’s thirty-two-year history, I know how daunting it can be for the new reader trying to get up to speed on my scrotnig strips with such a weight of backstory behind them. But this handy sampler allows you jump in right at the beginning of such series as Judge Dredd, Rogue Trooper, Strontium Dog, Nikolai Dante, A.B.C. Warriors and more – and if you want to follow their adventures further, you can pick up the collected trade paperbacks available from my Future Shop, or join me every week in 2000 AD for brand-new tales. Enjoy!
