WELCOME TO THE AUGUST ISSUE OF THE MIGHTY MEGAZINE!

We’ve got more Dreddworld action for you in the latest instalments of Anderson, Psi-Division, The Returners, Diamond Dogs, DeMarco, P.I., and, of course, the Big Chin himself.

Also inside, Stephen Jewell chats with former 2000 AD sub-editor turned Forbidden Planet and Titan head honcho Nick Landau about championing Brian Bolland to work for the Galaxy’s Greatest, running into trouble with The Cursed Earth, and spearheading the Dredd reprint album initiative.

Elsewhere, Karl Stock talks to in-demand UK artist Doug Braithwaite and Simon Furman, writer on Brit superhero team book The Vigilant, the second issue of which is out now, featuring the art of Simon Coleby, Jake Lynch and Will Sliney!

Another character returning next month in 2000 AD is 17-century zombie-hunter Defoe, so the mini-trade reprints a previous series that didn’t make it into a GN, The Damned – plus, for the completists among you, a one-off Mind Wars story from the 1981 Starlord annual!

Judge Dredd Megazine #411 is now available from all good comic book shops and newsagents – as well as 2000 AD‘s webshop and apps. It can be ordered from comic book stores via Diamond Distribution using code JAN192059.

Don’t forget that if you buy this issue in print direct from our webshop within the next month you’ll not pay a penny in postage fees in the UK! And if you subscribe to the Megazine you’ll get a FREE print of each month’s cover with each issue!
