Collection 23 – The Ballad of Halo Jones


Listen Later

Nice necklace! It’s the twenty-third in our series of Space Spinner 2000 collections! These collections have all of our coverage for a specific character or storyline, all in one place. They’re a great accompaniment to reading collected versions of 2000AD, or to just hear your favorite thrill all in one place.

It’s a big one for this post-Christmas collection, as we head out to do everything with Halo Jones! I’m a little trepidatious, but it should be a good time! The third of Alan Moore’s tales of space teenagers, Halo Jones is considered one, if not the best stories to have come out of 2000AD, and often British comics generally. It’s the story of a young woman making her way through a complex and fully realized future society. She leaves home, knows both love and betrayal, fights in wars, and makes hard decisions. It’s got soaring heights and shattering lows. Halo Jones is an amazing story that shows what 2000AD can be, a way to tell a story in short parts that draw you in and make you hungry for more. Find this thrill at the 2000AD webstore, or wherever books are sold.
