TOP 10 COMICS

(SPECIAL MENTION: 2000 AD)

 

I’ve ranked my Top 10 Comics but wait – there’s more!

Indeed, there’s enough for not just one but two of my usual lists of twenty special mentions.

In fairness to myself, that’s because I can compile one of those lists entirely from the anthology comic that is comic of choice for regular reading – 2000 AD, the British weekly SF anthology comic.

As it is, three of my Top 10 Comics are comics published as part of 2000 AD. First and foremost is of course Judge Dredd, 2000 AD’s most iconic character and featured in almost every weekly issue, ongoing since 2000 AD was launched in 1977 – although ironically for 2000 AD’s longest-running and flagship character, from its second issue onwards as the opening Dredd story was not ready for the first issue.

The other two entries from 2000 AD in my Top 10 Comics (in sixth and seventh place respectively) are Grant Morrison’s Zenith and Mark Millar’s Canon Fodder.

However, there’s so much more, not surprisingly for an anthology comic – usually with five comics within each weekly issue – that’s been published every week for almost half a century as at the time of this compilation.

These are my twenty special mentions for the rest of my favorite comics from 2000 AD.
