John Ridgway is a great artist, perfect for this. He was also a great bloke to talk to when i worked i nBolton and he'd stop in the shop i worked in. Very nice man.

I just watch dredd tonight and oh my God, how did I miss this?!? That was an amazing performance by Karl, I love this movie, I wish I wasn't so late to the petition, damn...

The Smiley Face Graffiti had an amazing influence on me as a 10yr old Skater, never left me

Epic, loved it, listened to it all on one sitting, smoking bud, thinking loads

I remember seeing Jaws at 11 and was immediatley confronted by a severed head tumbling out of boat

Hook jaws was my first comic memory

I can see the spin you're putting on this here with the 'Pro-Democracy Terrorist" thing. Democracy is evil, unironically - it's mob rule, it's 5 people voting to rape 1 person and one person voting not to get raped, it's extreme Statism and therefore Socialism. It's hilarious that you're meant to think "Hmm, a Pro-Democracy Terrorist? What a topsy-turvy, on-it's-head world this fiction is portraying, where good is seen as bad!" Whereas, in actual fact, modern day, it's just reflecting reality as it really is. In that way it's been very prescient.

It has been several years but I still miss Carlos and Kevin O'Neill.

So Mr Molcher, when are you going to release the 3rd collection of this to finish up the run in tpb?

I mean, almost 9 years later and....?

Got all the preban actions! Love em

I'm 50 years old. Got into 2000ad when I was 8. Read them all through my teens but have not read one since . Really wish I had kept my progs and kept up. Would love to grab hold of a chopper collection if such a thing exists. Still can't believe there has been no TV or movie releases. The duncan Jones rogue trooper movie seems all quiet .

Oh man, this Dan Dare dude is actually really impressive.

Oh! I clocked the dino behind Steve's head and then realised he is also THAT Steve White as well! 🦖

The Legendary Hook Jaw.....Wow.....have to comment here.....brilliant R.Sola images photographically burned into my memory for life (Flesh as well).....one fave is R.Mcnally in the Jaws exploding :).....got the 1st Issue at 7yrs old and still possess along with others.....Free Hook Jaw transfer 2nd issue ironed onto T-shirt by mum.....runner up in the Twit of the Week Shark fishing trip compo and got my name in Action and won a diver/shark in a bottle model kit which dad made for me.....those WERE the days.....life changing.....

Ive been a huge fan of 2000AD for decades now, first read it in about 83/4 when I was 6/7yrs, Judge Death scared the beejezus out of me but Rogue Trooper and Strontium Dog and Thargs future shocks were amazing. I remember HookJaw but I must have had the graphic novel as I didnt realise (or didn't back then) its was 2000ad.So many stories that would make immense movies but Hollywood ain't ready for that kind of intellect from its scifi fans. I mean Dredd(karl Urban) was pretty dope but they're still nowhere neat capturing the real John Dredd. Maybe one day we'll get PSI division or even Judge Death on the big screen. Thanks guys for years of entertainment and scares and I really do believe you guys switched my head on at an early age with some of the themes, plot twists and general mayhem of your comics. 💯💙

Looks like you need a bigger boat

Aww Hook Jaw. My mum was horrified when she read flicked through Action. Luckily she didn’t stop me getting the comic. It’s amazing that Jaws was certified as an A Which was aged 5 and above. 😂

Aww Hook Jaw. I remember my mum being horrified by Action comic when she flicked through it ! 😂

Good morning from San Diego California. We have a lot of white sharks from here to past Malibu. Luckily, attacks here are rare due to most of the sharks being pups and mellowed mums. We have had the odd, rogue fatality though... Hook Jaw or Son of Hook Jaw? Hook Jaw and Cousteau started me on a lifelong fascination with all sharks especially white sharks. Thank you for your creation and this interview.

Im surprised that GW didnt go allin and call it WH40k AD

Absolom

Atlantis

Como tener uno?

Scream could have probably stood alongside 2000ad if it had survived. I have some of the originals but couldn't be bothered to compete on eBay for the rest so I got the compilation. You can see the loss of quality that could have been.

Ah... Milli Com memories.

Scream was well after the Wertham panic but it was the time of Mary Whitehouse and Action had received flak over graphic gore so there was definitely an atmosphere at the time where you felt lke publishers of comics aimed at kids had to be careful.

I'm glad that he also mentioned Absalom when talking about Caballistics INC, Absalom is a great series. Harry Absalom is pretty much Jackson Lamb from Slow Horses, they even look similar (I wouldn't be surprised to learn that the writer of the Slow Horses books and the creators of show were inspired by Absalom).

so when is this coming out?

A great conversation. My favourite point was that the girls' comics actually had a great diversity of character and setting than the boys' comics. Amazing.

Is this happening!!!

Still waiting for that show

Have you done timequake in the 2000 AD ABC

I just discovered 2000 AD, and I was looking for a jumping-off point to begin reading some of these stories. Great video! Thank you for the recommendations on where to begin reading.

I'm from the future. The show finally came out back in 2028. I have all four seasons in 8K on my brain implant. Great show! Other than that, I can't tell you anything else about the future because it might pollute the timeline.

Ah wow, I had a meeting with 2000AD many many moons ago about producing a Durham Red manga. Never came to pass sadly, but it was fun all the set up!

😊😊😊😊

My first 2000ad I read was about 1986/87, I was around 13 or 14 yrs old in the UK. Before that I read the Beano and Dandy on the weekly but as a young teenager I was drawn to 2000ad and the first character I can distinctively remember reading was Rogue Trooper. Then, it was a rollercoaster from there. Nemesis, Halo Jones, ABC, Slaiñe, Zenith, Copper, Judge Anderson, Finn, Bad Company, Durham Red and ABC Trucking Co, I was hooked and not only did I buy the weekly's the monthly's, then Judge Dredd Magazine, I then went backwards and brought up the back issues to all the way back to the 1st and 2nd issue's. I have lived and worked all over the world and I still have them all in big boxes. I even purchased the Judge Dredd picture single by Anthrax, which I still have. However years of travel and I got disconnected from reading the galaxies greatest comic and not read any in years, I have tried but I just can't fall back in love with reading but I do have fond memories of me as a young teen reading in my old 80s/90s bedroom that I grew up in.

Have to go into attic to re read them. Haven't read since I was kid. Start from issue 2 again

Hi I've never read 2000AD but I'm interested in reading some of the Future Shock stories - I understand these are self contained short stories? Are the Future Shocks reprinted in the "Best Of" volumes?

Never clicked on video so fasr!

Strontium Dog / Nemesis the Warlock / Mazeworld / Slaine / D.R. Quinch / Robo-Hunter / Tharg's Future Shocks Ro-busters / A.B.C. Warriors / Shakara / Harlem Heroes / Mean Arena / Helltrekkers / Flesh / Rogue Trooper / Bad Company Judge Dredd Case Files / Dredd - The Daily Dredds / Essential Dredd - Dredd Vs. Death / Essential Judge Anderson - Shamballa / Anderson Psi Files 1

My dad bought me my first issue back in '94!I was ten years old and I BLOODY loved it!!he then started getting it weekly for me and used to say,"don't show your mum though",😂.due to the blood and stuff,but here I am 24 years later,still subscribed,and with a Huge collection of Graphic Novels..My favourite 2000ad character is Slaine,but I'm a huge fan of Dredd,Sinister Dexter,Finn,Nikolai Dante,Devlin Waugh,Button Man,Mazeworld,Rogue Trooper,Harlem Heroes...ahhh man I could do this all day,2000ad is an endless list of awesome comics!👌🤘🏻

Need me some ABC WARRIORS and Strontium Dog!

Been reading 2000AD since it first started and my standout memory has always been in the first Flesh story, specifically where the giant spiders crawled out and killed the men, that has always stayed with me for some reason

I second Strontium Dog. Obviously the stories of Johnny and Wulf are great but, I love when Durham Red gets a solo story. I'm holding out hope that the Strontium Dogs will one day get an official live action or animated film. A few of my other favourites are Absalom, Sinister Dexter and Survival Geeks. Oh, and it is usually a treat whenever Tharg blesses us with a future shock.

Sinister Dexter is my all time favorite strip. I loved Vector 13 as a kid and having either as a starter outside of Dredd I think really shows how mature and varied 2000AD has always been. Feral and Foe I have enjoyed very much upon my return to the 2000AD world

Breadth is the word. Its daunting. Im a relative newcomer (18 months). Its so varied. Im just enjoying it all. Rogue trooper for me personally is my favorite. Im going to get the "bests" after this vid.

Where to start 2000 AD No 1.

My God a Yank spreading the good word , Borag thungg my kind of girl ❤❤, I have been trying to get my fav American comic site to cover 2000 AD, SD was a Starlord Strip first both. But 👏👏both loved it . Flesh, Sam Slade, Ro busters/ABC Warriors ,Bad Company never get the dues owed not to mention Mean Arena + the tie in with Giant and Judge Giant , every one raves about Halo Jones or Dante but to the youth it was above us. Then I was 11 but Nemesis still now stands out . Thank you both 👏👏much love.
