Prog Slog
Lack of a reliable Internet connection and a (hopefully) quick bout of summer flu have kept me out of the game. Been up since 4am with an explodey head. Am currently eating life restoring porridge and catching up with the mountain of stuff in my Google Reader. Great excuse to point you towards Paul Rainey’s 2000AD Prog Slog:
This prog sees the end of the ABC Warriors run. In it, the giant robot with five bickering brains, George, kicks the hell out of BioL’s head quarters (BioL being the corrupt corporation that grows synthi-meat and has been setting fire to the farms of their competitors). Working for a huge, corrupt organisation myself, I couldn’t help but feel a little sorry for all the office and factory workers that were trampled to death, especially when you consider that the bosses, the real bad guys, probably work remotely from home or are visiting a tropical planet on “business”.
I have a near enough full set of 2000ADs… if only I had the time to sit down and re read them.

Hope you’re feeling better soon!
