Not quite WaterWorld flooded, but close enough that - you know - Fran’s entire family is nowhere to be found and she has to make it on her own with just her best friend at her side. Young Fran’s biggest concern starts out as being in a row with her sister over borrowing her dress without asking for a school recital, but things take a pretty dreary turn when the world becomes entirely flooded.
Especially if you’re young and ready to take on the entire world! Well, as much as you hate being home right now, just think about how much it would suck if it started raining and then just never stopped? Because that’s the main disaster of the Treasury of British Comics’ Fran of the Floods. Let’s face it - being stuck at home all the time right now can be pretty rough. Let’s steer the Thrill-train in that direction this month, and be happy that we’re not…oh…eaten by ants, drowning, blown up, or being plagued by zombies? A different kind of pandemic! Yes? Yes. So to save you from that, I’ll avoid listing the bajillion Judge Dredd stories that include some sort of killer pathogen! Instead, let’s jump on the “being gracious and thankful for what we have” stuff by focusing on just how good we have it. We need to stay on top of the matters at hand with this virus without getting dragged down into anxiety and despair. And I don’t know about you, but in the little spare time of sanity that I have, I’m thankful for the escape into a world of comics - or more specifically - 2000 AD’s disaster comics!īut let’s not get it too twisted. Sure, we might all be stuck inside our homes and SURE, some of us might be ready to tape our children in the closet with some fish sticks and hope for the best, but the fact of the matter is that gratitude is something incredibly important right now. But we’re back! And we’re better than ever! (Given the circumstances and disaster of it all, of course). Borag Thungg again, Earthlets! It feels like it’s been a while because… well, it has! February proved to be the wonkiest month possible, so we had to take a brief break.
