Where A Better World was a political story, And To The Sea Return was a straight up horror story (Or at least as straight up horror as possible since it seems that every Dredd story is political to one degree or another. #dayofdredd

Breathe in the Sickness of Rob Williams & Henry Flint's Judge Dredd: And To The Sea Return
These comics kick you, stab you with a rusty blade, and then try to gouge your eyes out. And you love every second of it.

I haven’t read any Appleseed in ages and really don’t remember much of it so this edition of Shirow Masamune’s 2nd classic (along with Ghost in the Shell) needs to be a must read.

The first issue of Iman Vellani and Marianna Ignazzi’s Chachu was a strong debut. Hoping that the 2nd issue is another good one.

This is a hodgepodge collection featuring the annual (I actually prefer the James Harren story to the DWJ one) a one-shot, Absolute Joker, and an appearance by Absolute Wonder Woman. I don't know if this series has actually lived up to its potential yet.

I'm cautiously optimistic about Tom King and Gabriel Hernádez Walta's Six of Us. The high concept of it sounds good, a murder mystery taking place behind the scenes of a popular sitcom. Going to give this one a shot but it's on a short leash.

May write about this in the future but debuting both the new Legion of Super-Heroes and Doom Patrol on the same day was genius (Teen Titans may also be part of this but honestly, flipped through it and nothing jumped out at me to make it a must read.)

Thread over on the personal account.
I remember picking this up 20 years ago today and the guy at the comic shop trying to talk me out of it. But having a passing awareness of Gillen and McKelvie, I was determined to leave the shop with Phonogram #1.

It's only now I remember today is the 20th anniversary of this coming out. There's not really words, though I'm sure I'll find a few thousand for the newsletter. "We are twice as far from Rue Britannia as Rue Britannia was from Britpop" is certainly a thought. The other is: thank you, McK.
