Rebellion Releases — 14 August 2024


One of 2000 AD’s most unpredictable, visceral and impressive stories, the complete tale of Shakara is now coming to collection into a single incredible volume!

The galaxy is in turmoil. Once a place of peace and order, now a time of terror has descended upon it, with races waging war upon one another unchecked by any authority. Planets, civilizations, even entire star systems face total annihilation or enslavement. But a vengeful figure has emerged from the chaos, striking at targets with a ruthless determination. This alien being calls itself Shakara and it is seemingly bent on wreaking revenge on those responsible for the destruction of its people.


Shakara is the most feared entity in the universe, the living embodiment of a murdered species and an unstoppable killing machine determined to bring vengeance upon those responsible for annihilating a whole species – and not a single entity in the whole of known universe will be able to stop it! The Shakara were thought to be long dead – but retribution is coming from beyond the grave!

Written by Robbie Morrison (The Authority, Nikolai Dante) and featuring the incredible art of Henry Flint (Zombo, Judge Dredd), Shakara is a modern 2000 AD saga, a visually outrageous and impossibly epic tale of shocking violence and destruction!

Out on 19 March 2025, this complete collection of Shakara is available to pre-order from all good book stores and online retailers, as well as direct from the 2000 AD webshop.

And now, this week's releases...
