In February 2017, 2000 AD celebrated four decades of cutting edge comics at the 40 Years of Thrill-power Festival in London and we are proud to give you a front row seat for panels with some of the best creators in comics today…

Three of 2000 AD’s newest talents discuss their approaches to writing for the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic, from compressed storytelling to creating compelling characters, from the challenges of working on some of the most famous characters in British comics to combining humour, pathos, and high-octane action in a single strip.

Please note: this panel was recorded using hand-held microphones in front of a live audience so sound quality may be variable.

From the mad realms of Meltdown Man to the lethal world of Death Planet, Alan Hebden is one of 2000 AD‘s most singular writers.

Starting out writing war comics, he worked for Battle Picture Weekly in the mid-1970s where he created the incredibly popular Major Eazy along with possibly the first ever comic book about the conflict in Vietnam, Fighting Mann. For 2000 AD he wrote dozens of Future Shocks as well as the fantastical Meltdown Man (with favoured collaborator Massimo Belardinelli), plus Mind Wars for Starlord and hundreds of scripts for Commando.

Two of 2000 AD’s most distinctive, versatile and mind-bending talents, the work of Peter Milligan and Robbie Morrison has pushed the boundaries of storytelling in surprising, imaginative, and shocking ways, from Bad Company to Counterfeit Girl, from Judge Dredd to Nikolai Dante. Join them in an intimate conversation with Jason Atomic to journey into the outer limits of the mind.

The world of Judge Dredd is coming to TV – and we give you an exclusive behind-the-scenes chat with Judge Dredd: Mega-City One‘s producer Brian Jenkins, and executive producers Jason Kingsley and Mark Stern about what their plans are for the lawman of the future in his latest venture onto screens – from Mega-City One’s crazes and crazies to how the original comics will be at the heart of the show.

One of, if not the single most important partnerships in comics, John Wagner and Carlos Ezquerra are the creators of Judge Dredd and Strontium Dog.

Attune your aural sensors, Earthlets – it’s time for another edition of the official 2000 AD podcast!

We celebrate the return of the 17th Century zombie-hunter Titus Defoe to 2000 AD by talking to creator Pat Mills about the research that goes into the series, as well as what it means for Colin MacNeil to be taking over from Leigh Gallagher on art duties, and some the mad stories Pat’s not entirely sure he *can* tell…

Plus we talk to writer Alec Worley about the latest US-format one-shot comic based on the 2012 DREDD movie, Anderson: The Deep End, and what it’s like writing three different versions of everyone’s favourite psychic cop.
