2000 AD > Reviews (7)

An integral part of the late seventies and all the way through the eighties, this magazine (comic?) was light years ahead of it's time. Believable 3 dimensional characters, outstanding art and exceptional writing made it the eagerly awaited highlight of my week. Rogue Trooper, Strontium Dog, Judge Dredd and the ABC Warriors would blow my mind each and every issue.

Over the last few years however it tends to have lacked some of it's earlier potential, whereby in the early years it would have the occasional 'miss' (Dan Dare! What was all that about?) this now seems to be the rule rather than the exception. The magazine has tried to 'mature' and in doing so has, I believe, ostracized a great many of it's original fans.

In summary, still a fairly good read but would love it if 2000AD managed to recapture at least some of it's former magnificence.
