🚨 NEW on Shelfdust today! The Year of Evil: Judge Death, by @stevewmorris.bsky.social 🚨

Judge Death debuted in 2000 AD Prog 149 - but how have the years since treated him? And what's his relevance as a villain now we're living in the future world of 2026? shelfdust.com/2026/03/04/s...

God bless 2000AD for letting Alan Moore write a story about sending werewolves to space

Been listening to Lil Simz recently

A small girl wearing a rabbit costume and blue coat carries a book as she walks to school. Her mother (head out of shot) wheels her baby brother along in a pushchair. The baby says "Peter Rabbit may be the 'Hero' of the story, but surely the obedient, widowed Mrs Rabbit is a more effective symbol of the oppression inherent within Mister McGregor's regime" The girls looks furious and snaps "Mum!! He's critiquing my world book day costume from a marxist perspective again!"

A cartoon reminder that tomorrow is World Book Day (In the UK anyway). Originally for the @theguardian.com
