8th May 2020
Welcome to the fourteenth of The Lockdown Tapes as The 2000 AD Thrill-Cast continues to broadcast the joys of Thrill-power during the COVID-19 pandemic! Got a theme or interview you’d like to hear? Let us know at thrillcast@2000AD.com
With the misadventures of primate Noam Chimpsky running in 2000 AD right now, the Thrill-Cast talks to artist PJ Holden about his latest work, his career, and putting crazy citizens back on the streets of Mega-City One.
Then we’re joined by comics critic Steve Morris from Shelfdust to do a deep-dive into Si Spurrier and Frazer Irving’s Dredd-world comedy series The Simping Detective, exploring its influences, how it interacts with the greater world of Mega-City One, and how it deals with satire and parody.
