Rebellion’s 2000 AD Expands its Supermarket Footprint into ASDA

Brace yourselves, readers: starting with next week’s 2000 AD Prog 2475, The Galaxy’s Greatest Comic will now be available to pick up each and every week at ASDA! The news means ASDA joins major supermarkets across the UK including Morrisons, Sainsbury’s, Tesco, Co-Op and many more in stocking 2000 AD in their magazine section – and overnight, becomes one of the major stockists of the comic in the UK.

The first issue available through ASDA will be 2000 AD Prog 2475, which features a cover from legendary artist Colin MacNeil, and stories including Judge Dredd, Brink, Tharg’s 3rillers, and The Discarded – as well as a complete Future Shock from Andi Ewington and John McCrea.

Publishing since 1977, 2000 AD is the weekly 32-page anthology featuring five serialised stories in each issue. Featuring Judge Dredd – The Ultimate Lawman of the Future – 2000 AD has also been home to iconic and influential series including Strontium Dog, Halo Jones, Nemesis the Warlock, ABC Warriors and many more.

The crucible which introduced creators including Alan Moore, John Wagner, Pat Mills, Brian Bolland, Grant Morrison, Dave Gibbons, Al Ewing and many more to the comics industry, 2000 AD is the home to genre-defying and anarchic comics which challenge authority and give readers a taste of the unknown and bizarre. Currently 2000 AD features stunning visions of science fiction such as the cosmic horror of Brink; the violent and vampiric Silver; the fantastical steampunk universe of Brass Sun; and the dark and depraved dystopia of The Fall of Deadworld, as well as many other stories.

And the news comes ahead of 2000 AD’s first 48-page bumper issue of the year, out on the 1st April, which will feature classic characters Judge Dredd and Rogue Trooper, a standalone Red Dragon thriller from Rob Williams, Steve Yeowell and Patrick Goddard, and the return of the steampunk aerial adventure of Ian Edginton and D’Israeli’s Helium!

It’s never been easier to get a taste of Thrill-Power, Earthlets – just head on down to your local!
