Preview: the first 2000AD of the New Year

I'm sure you all know by now that Black Max and his monster bats returned to the pages of a weekly comic in the Christmas issue of 2000AD! The WW1 villain (and his nemesis Wilson) have been rebooted for a new generation as characters in Fiends of the Western Front. 

The original Black Max series ran in Thunder comic in 1970, then into the merged Lion and Thunder, and has recently been collected in Black Max Vol.1 from Rebellion. The revamped Black Max has also appeared in new stories in the Scream and Misty specials published in 2017 and 2018.
