A shark more deadly than Jaws? – The 2000 AD Thrill-Cast

We’re gonna need a bigger boat! With the third issue of Battle Action out now, on the latest episode of the 2000 AD Thrill-Cast Molch-R talks to writer Steve White and artist John McCrea about their one-shot story featuring the infamous shark from the pages of Action.

Hook Jaw is the murderous great white shark, created by Pat Mills and Geoff Kemp, that debuted in Action in 1976. A ‘dead crib’ of the movie Jaws but with a hook lodged in its lower jaw, Hook Jaw is the scourge of the seas – a comic strip so violent, with frequent dismemberments and maulings, that it helped bring down the censors on Action.

The latest issue of Battle Action sees White and McCrea join Garth Ennis and Keith Burns in another issue packed with thrilling action! Get it from your local comic shop or check out the details here.

Michael Carroll on writing space opera & dystopian cops – The 2000 AD Thrill-Cast

From the means streets to far space, writer Michael Carroll has his feet in different 2000 AD worlds with his current work – with one series returning after a long hiatus and another drawing to a close.

The new series of Dreadnoughts begins in Judge Dredd Megazine #468 this month. While the new Justice Department is still in its early years, many citizens – and more than a few cops – are unhappy as the Judges’ influence spreads wider, so Carroll talks about both the prescience of Judge Dredd and unreliable narrators…

And over in 2000 AD, the fifth series of Proteus Vex, ‘Devious’, is set to close the curtain on the super spy space opera, and Carroll discusses the influences on the series, world-building and preparing to stick the landing on the long-running series.

“I like to play with words”: Dan Abnett on 2000 AD, Warhammer, and more – The 2000 AD Thrill-Cast

“Prolific” doesn’t really seem to cover the career of writer Dan Abnett – from decades of writing for 2000 AD to his prominent work for Marvel UK, Marvel and DC, and bestselling novels for the Warhammer 40K universe, his career has been marked by both quantity and quality.

Dan returns to the The 2000 AD Thrill-Cast for a retrospective on his career (so far) and he talks to Molch-R about deadlines, managing creativity, slow-burn storytelling, the changing face of the industry, and coming up with endless puns.

Was this the CREEPIEST comic ever? – The 2000 AD Thrill-Cast

This episode is not for the nervous! At least that’s what Ghastly McNasty, the editor of Scream! might claim! With a brand new hardcover collection publishing all the stories from the 1980s horror comic in order out in May, the Thrill-Cast talkes to its editor Ian Rimmer, sub-editor and writer Simon Furman, and SFX editor and Scream! reader Darren Scott about the history of the short-lived title and its enduring influence.

And if Hogwarts is the posh magical school, where do the comprehensive pupils go? We gain an education in conjuration with Lowborn High writer David Barnett and artist Mike Walters, talking about the all-ages series that’s getting its first collection.

A Tribute to Alan Grant – The 2000 AD Thrill-Cast

The official 2000 AD podcast finally returns with a special pre-Christmas episode paying tribute to writer Alan Grant, who passed away in July this year.

In a discussion recorded at New York Comic Con, writer Garth Ennis, editor Dan Raspler, and comics critic Chloe Maveal discuss the impact and legacy of Grant’s work, before Ennis reads a personal letter from Grant that reveals the secret origins of Alec Trench!

We then hear a special, never-before-aired interview recorded at the beginning of 2021, in which Grant talks alongside his friend and long-time co-writer John Wagner about how they met, their time working together, and their reflections of their distinguished careers. A not-to-be-missed interview, which was one of Grant’s last.
