It’s December and so the bumper Christmas issue of 2000 AD is on its way! This week we talk to two of the creative teams involved, both focusing on the return of a series – Strontium Dog and Proteus Vex!

Since the tragic loss of Carlos Ezquerra in 2018, Strontium Dog has been on a hiatus but Johnny Alpha and Wulf Sternhammer return courtesy of Rob Williams and Laurence Campbell, who have a one-off tale in the Christmas Prog. The Thrill-Cast talks to Rob and Laurence about Westerns, Starlord, and old 2000 AD annuals, as well as Carlos’ incredible artistic legacy.

And Proteus Vex is back! Michael Carroll and Henry Flint’s high concept sci-fi action series returns to 2000 AD, with Jake Lynch now handling art duties. Inbetween complimenting each other, they chat about Henry’s influence on the strip, how the change in artist has affected the strip’s direction, and what’s in store for their “Jason Bourne in space”!

From his working class roots in Sheffield to working on the latest Hollywood blockbuster, the career of Greg Staples has been anything but typical. After brief stints as a sign painter and in an architect’s office, he began working for 2000 AD after Simon Bisley spotted his talent and introduced him to then-editor Richard Burton. He worked on Judge Dredd, Sláine, and Sinister Dexter before moving into video games, movie concept work, and creating art for the globally-successful card game Magic: The Gathering. Greg chats to the Thrill-Cast about the lessons he’s learnt along the way and how his perspective on his work and interests has kept him grounded.

Writer Kenneth Niemand has arrived at 2000 AD not only brimming with ideas about also with his own authorial voice. Crafting some classic Judge Dredd stories as well as co-creating simian rebel Noam Chimpsky, he and artist Dave Taylor have recently begun the ‘Elseworld’ style reimagining of Dredd in ‘Megatropolis’ in the Judge Dredd Megazine. Although not a fan of interviews, he chats to the Thrill-Cast about his background, his views on Dredd, and what he has planned for the future.

Sadly, this year’s New York Comic Con didn’t take place … at least not in the confines of the Javitt’s Centre. For Reedpop’s online ‘Metaverse’ event, Molch-R gathered together critics Evan Narcisse, Chloe Maveal, and Kelly Kanayama, and Judge Dredd writer Arthur Wyatt for the Judge Dredd: Satire & Policing in 2020 panel. This is the full recording of the panel, which asks what Judge Dredd says about this moment in history, whether the character’s satire still stands up, and how the strip can be viewed in relation to the events in the UK and America.

With his pop art sensibilities, and use of photo references and bold colours, Steve Sampson’s work was a regular fixture of the Judge Dredd Megazine and 2000 AD in the 1990s; starting with Brit-Cit Babes and then creating a significant body of work on the Judge Anderson series, Sampson’s style had both fans and detractors. The Thrill-Cast talks to him about his life and career, from ditching art college to illustrating for men’s magazines, from working in a sheet metal factory to moving into the video games industry.
