Slaine: The Horned God Part One
With simon Bisley
Kiss His Axe!
The ever-popular Celtic hero returns with a vengeance! From the pages of seminal British sci-fi comic 2000 AD comes hard-edged action and acerbic satire crafted by the cream of today’s red-hot comics creators.
In this classic story, written by Pat Mills (Marshal Law, A.B.C. Warriors, Judge Dredd), and fully painted by Simon Bisley (Batman/Judge Dredd: Judgment on Gotham, A.B.C. Warriors), Ukko the dwarf tells of how Sláine came to be crowned High King of Tir-Nan-Og...
The people of Tir-Nan-Og, the ‘Land of the Young’, have suffered for some time in the clutches of the Drunes, strange druids who have poisoned the very land itself with their vile magic. Sláine has had enough of their tyranny, and ‘communes’ with the Earth Goddess to discover some shocking truths about the priesthood and his own future! Now Sláine must unite all four kings of Tir-Nan-Og to gain the use of their mystical weapons, as he and his Sessair tribe prepare for all-out war!

Judge Dredd: The Cursed Earth (2000 AD Collector's Edition 3)
Classic Stories... Classic Editions
From the archives of the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic comes a showcase series of classic stories, represented in a new Collectors’ Library format. These deluxe editions feature the very best of seminal sci-fi comic 2000 AD, the stories that shaped legends and founded a (galactic) empire.
There’s a plague in Mega-City Two, and only Judge Dredd can deliver the cure! But first, he’s got to Cross the Cursed Earth - the radiation-ravaged wasteland that lies between the cities... and although the land is barren, it’s far from abandoned!
From 2000 AD founding editor Pat Mills and Judge Dredd creator John Wagner, with artist supremos Mike McMahon (Sláine) and Brian Bolland (Batman: The Killing Joke), come timeless tales of rough justice. A must for any bookshelf!
John Wagner is responsible not only for co-creating Judge Dredd (with artist Carlos Ezquerra) but also for such timeless tales as Judge Death, The Apocalypse War and The Judge Child Quest. He is also the writer of such classic 2000 AD strips as Strontium Dog and Robo-Hunter. His work also includes Batman, Boba Fett, The Last American and Button Man.
Mike McMahon is renowned for creating the ‘big boots and crumpled clothes’ look that has characterised Judge Dredd for the last 25 years, as well as for his stints on A.B.C. Warriors and Ro-Busters. He has also been involved in countless projects since, including Batman and The Last American, returning to 2000 AD recently for an all-new A. B. C. Warriors tale.
Brian Bolland is the artist whose sharply-defined lines and bold inking gave Dredd a page presence second to none. Though now primarily known as a cover artist on titles such as Batman: Gotham Knights and The Flash, his interior comics work has included the acclaimed Batman: The Killing Joke and Camelot 3000.

Slaine The King
Classic stories... Classic editions
From the archives of the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic comes a showcase series of classic stories, re-presented in a new Collector’s Library format. These deluxe editions feature the very best of seminal sci-fi comic 2000 AD, the stories that shaped legends and founded a (galactic) empire.
This is the first installment in the saga of Sláine Mac Roth, warrior of the Sessair, as he travels through Tir-Nan-Og with his dwarf companion Ukko, confronting dark gods and darker mortals at every turn, protected by his mastery of the ‘Warp Spasm’, a frenzy that makes him an even mightier opponent...
From creators Pat Mills, Mike McMahon and Glenn Fabry (Preacher) come thrilling tales combining Celtic mythology with a classic 2000 AD edge.
Mike McMahon is unquestionably a 2000 AD great, with celebrated work on Judge Dredd (creating the ‘big boots and crumpled clothes’ that have characterised Dredd ever since), as well as his stints on A.B.C. Warriors and Ro-Busters. He has also been involved in countless projects since, including Batman and The Last American, returning to 2000 AD recently for an all-new A.B.C. Warriors tale.
Glenn Fabry is now internationally renowned for an unbroken run of cover paintings spanning 66 issues of Preacher and associated one-shots. His 2000 AD resume includes Judge Dredd, but his most influential work is his run on Sláine. Glenn’s work has graced the covers of Garth Ennis’ War Story series for DC comics, and Jamie Delano’s Outlaw Nation.
