Masters of British Comic Art is a sumptuous, entertaining, educational, and definitive journey through the history of British comics, with a focus on the artists – recognised and forgotten – who have defined the industry. On this episode, Molch-R talks to artist and writer David Roach, the author behind this painstakingly-researched compendium and the history of British comics, the industry’s influence on global culture, forgotten artists who deserve to be remembered, his mission to catalogue every comic and his own career drawing for 2000 AD, Doctor Who, Batman, and many more classic characters.
