Episodes include:
Year of the Tsar 2675 AD, and bastard son of the Romanovs NIKOLAI DANTE has bonded with a cyberorganic Weapons Crest, an alien combat computer, which allows his to extrude lethal bio-blades. Tsar Vladimir the Conqueror has made Dante his troubleshooter, and now he has been sent with Jena Makarov to Imperial Russia-occupied Amerika...
The swollen city of Downlode lies sprawled across the heart of future Europe like a hit-and-run victim. Here, life is cheap - if you want someone whacked, you can't buy better bullet monkeys than Finnigan SINISTER and Ramone DEXTER, the city's primo hitmen.
Inspired by John Travolta and Samuel L. Jackson in Pulp Fiction.
Artist Jason Brashill declined the chance to co-create Sinister Dexter but he did paint the cover image to promote the characters' first appearance in Prog 981.
Sinister is Latin for left, while Dexter is Latin for right.
Mega-City One, 2130 AD. This vast urban nightmare is situated along the eastern coast of post-apocalyptic North America, with the irradiated wasteland known as the Cursed Earth to the west and the polluted Black Atlantic to the east. Home to 400 million citizens, crammed into gigantic citi-blocks, overcrowding is rife, unemployment endemic and boredom universal. Tensions run a constant knife-edge, and crime is rampant. Only the Judges can prevent total anarchy. Empowered to dispense instant justice, these future lawmen are judge, jury and executioner. Toughest of them all is JUDGE DREDD - he is the Law! When an undercover Judge died last year trying to infiltrate criminal Harry Task's organisation, Dredd made it his personal duty to bring the perp to justice. Now, he may get that chance as Trask makes his final move...

Picture a grotesque imaginary land, somewhere in the outer reaches of reality - a dark landscape of strange figures and weird machinations, seemingly conjured from the very depths of a fever-dream.
