British annuals are normally a collection of new and reprint material with color and black and white interiors. Published annually in hard cover, they are dated, if at all, one year ahead of the copyright. Most annuals contain illustrated text stories, comic strips and features such as puzzles, games, even articles. The art, mainly unaccredited, is average to good.
This 2000AD annual features a seven-page color ABC Warriors strip by Alan Moore, Steve Dillon and John Higgins and it is beautiful. A one page color painting of Slaine by Mike McMahon is also excellent. There are three other color strips: Slaine, Judge Dredd (Ian Gibson) and Rogue Trooper. Black and white strips include Strontium Dog (Erzquerra) plus many others. The paper stock they used for this annual is above average and enhances the art.
