This prog continued the opening stories of Flesh and Harlem Heroes, as well as the Judge Dredd story Robot Wars. Dan Dare began its second story Hollow World. Invasion and M.A.C.H.1 had single-episode stories.
The Mekon makes his first appearance in 2000AD in this prog, and features on the cover, drawn by artist Mike Western (his only cover). The back cover featured a page from the Martian Mirror, an alien newspaper, commemorating the death of Monday in Prog 11.
