This new T-shirt features the classic Strontium Dog cover from Starlord #4, drawn by master artist and SD co-creator Carlos Ezquerra. This dynamic, high-octane art hit newsagents’ shelves on Saturday 27 May 1978, highlighting the Strontium Dog story ‘Papa Por-ka’ by John Wagner and Carlos Ezquerra.
While it was shortlived, 2000 AD’s sister comic Starlord would have a profound effect on its stablemate – after Strontium Dog survived the merger it quickly became one of 2000 AD’s biggest and most popular strips, a searing satire on prejudice, xenophobia, revenge and mercy that still hits hard to this day.
