The 2000 AD Thrill-Cast: Sláine The Horned God

[@firekind1980]

It's about time Slaine was released as a complete collection. Simons art was insane.

[@Blaine-Bizbane]

Ahhhh Slaine the Horned God, yes one of the best Comics i've ever read and i've collected thousands. I let my uncle borrow it once, he loved it. Are there any more painted Slaine stories anyone could recommend? I just noticed ''Book of Invasions'', anything else though? Pat Mills has to be one of my FAVORITE writers of all time. I love Finn, Brats Bizzare, ABC Warriors, Legend of Shamana, Meralzoic, Punsiher 2099, and of course Marshal Law. Thank you!

Slaine has beautiful artwork

I spent my childhood,teenage and most of my 20s visiting newsagents on a saturday morning pilgrimage for my 2000ad,would trippy doing it again at 44!

[@mkAYY825]

i have 3 copies of this ! it is legendary. possibly the best piece of graphic novel work ever done.

[@hendrikvanleeuwen9110]

It is hard to explain how radical this art was when it came out. Bisley's ink spattered madness compared to the clean inks of, for instance Savage Sword of Conan (which I also loved). Truly changed fantasy art.

"If you don't.. you get Guy Richie's King Arthur".... OUCH! 🤣🤣🤣

I loved the Horned god story. Probably one of my favourites, along with Judgment on Gotham.

[@SandroSensei]

I really hope Patt will make a Slaine story with Clint Langley about the Cytrons. The formodians in Book of Invasions where so more thought out in these books and Clint made them sooooo scary. I really think that they can make the cytrons really cool. A whole section about experiments on humans, how they melt humans and drink them as a milkshake. That kind of gross stuff. Its a instant buy for me.

Apparently, according to what I’ve read, the Celtic warriors who fought naked were the elite. And they believed that the gods gave them armour, not items of clothing. I remember reading it but don’t quote me on where. I believe it was maybe something Tacitus or Pliny wrote.

[@ampinstein]

What a great podcast. I do hope Pat and Simon are getting their fair share from this :)

[@DionysusJPower]

Simon, where did you say we can look to see your painting techniques? Can you put a link here, thanks

[@DionysusJPower]

Damn.. already have the Horned God graphic novel. What's the next one?

[@TheFujac]

oh yes.... Slaine is way up there with Halo Jones

[@vidstarr]

I have tried to submit a order. but it's looks like they only ship to Ireland and the U.K.

[@BIGOTEMACHINE]

vidstarr you should try forbidden planet

[@vidstarr]

Well, I have seen them on Ebay, but I really like to order from the official website, but it looks like they don't ship to my place. Found them on Ebay, but shipping is expensive.

[@vidstarr]

Not in Australia.
