Yeehaw, we’re off to sunny Texas with the official 2000 AD podcast!

This week, we talk to writer Gordon Rennie about Angelic, his ‘origin story’ of the notorious Angel Gang – but is this a straight forward re-telling or an alternative history of the South’s most evil family?

And as we prepare for the Judge Dredd: Every Empire Falls collection in February, we chat to writer Michael Carroll about continuing the saga in January as Judge Dredd returns to Texas City to deal with the fallout of the attempted coup; plus we discuss national stereotypes, playing in John Wagner’s sandpit, and what the Irish do and do not say!

With the publication of The 2000 AD Script Book, we talk to four 2000 AD writers about how they create stories for the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic.

Rob Williams (Judge Dredd, Low Life) chats about how important choosing the right artist is, how he structures stories, and the differences with working in US and UK comics.

Pat Mills (Sláine, Savage) discusses the changes in scriptwriting since the dawn of 2000 AD, how he balances research with storytelling, and how he works with different artists.

Robbie Morrison (Nikolai Dante, Shakara) talks about the influences on his style, what he learned from working on epics such as Nikolai Dante, and about trusting artists.

And Kek-W (The Order, Dreams of Deadworld) reveals how he turns ideas into scripts and overcomes writer’s block.

After the tragic news of artist Steve Dillon’s death at just 54, the 2000 AD podcast talks to just some of the many people who knew, worked with, and admired one of 2000 AD‘s greatest talents – from former 2000 AD editor Richard Burton to fellow artists John Higgins, John McCrea, and Rufus Dayglo, as well as Steve’s greatest collaborator and close friend, Garth Ennis.

For more on Steve, see our recent tribute on the 2000 AD blog.

Since New York Comic Con was bursting at the seams, this episode of the official 2000 AD podcast is PACKED with guests in a bumper special edition!

We talk to Arthur Wyatt and Alex De Campi about working together on a new series of Judge Dredd based on the 2012 movie, Chris Burnham about his cover for Prog 2000, Frazer Irving about what working at 2000 AD meant for his career, and Gregory Prout about their prototype Johnny Alpha figure and what more is coming up from 3A Toys.

A trio of top guests this week as we talk to superstar artist Jock about his new book and looking back at his time with 2000 AD, from his first steps on Dredd to working on the 2012 movie.

Our second guest is the editor who gave Jock his first work – Steve MacManus. We chat to Steve about his memoir of the 1980s golden age of 2000 AD, The Mighty One, which lifts the lid on such a fertile time for British comics as well as the goings on behind the scenes at the 2000 AD Nerve Centre.

And we talk to Pete Wells, the mega-fan behind the 2000 AD Covers Uncovered blog, about his love of 2000 AD‘s covers, examining the process behind them, and what it’s like to be given the official 2000 AD seal of approval.

Not only did Pat Mills create the acclaimed Galaxy’s Greatest Comic, but he was also responsible for Misty, the horror comic aimed at girls. Molch-R chats to Pat about the heyday of British comics, the challenges of producing a new title at the time, and why he thinks Misty could have gone on to challenge even 2000 AD in popularity.

We also chat to writer Tom Eglington about Outlier, his space opera series about revenge, compromise, and outlandish alien technology that is rapaidly heading towards its final conclusion in 2000 AD!
