Description
Bold orange-and-yellow lettering spelling out “2000AD” dominates the cover of this Sci-Fi Special magazine, with a menacing painted portrait of Judge Dredd gripping his Lawgiver front and center. The 60p cover price sits in a starburst at the top right, and cover lines promote co-starring strips Rogue Trooper, Ro-Busters, Halo Jones, D.R. & Quinch, and Strontium Dog alongside puzzles, readers’ art, and Future Shocks features — a snapshot of the British sci-fi anthology at the height of its 1980s popularity.
The rear cover carries a full-page period advertisement for Forbidden Planet, the London science-fiction and comic shop, listing its Denmark Street and St. Giles High Street locations along with mail-order pricing for Judge Dredd and 2000 A.D. merchandise, Eagle Comics titles, T-shirts, and back issues. Additional cover pricing for Australia, New Zealand, and Malaysia is printed on the front, reflecting the title’s international newsstand distribution.
The magazine shows toning and light foxing spots along the edges of the back cover consistent with age, and a rectangular sticker or tape residue is visible near the lower portion of both the front and back covers. The staple-bound booklet remains complete and intact overall.
