The 2000 AD Thrill-Cast Lockdown Tapes – Gordon Rennie & Robin Smith (2016 & 2017 interviews)
4th August 2021
Welcome to the salubrious seventy-second episode of The 2000 AD Thrill-Cast Lockdown Tapes!
Another dive into the archive this week, with the choices of interview coinciding nicely with new stories from Galaxy’s Greatest Comic. First up is our interview with writer Gordon Rennie in 2016 about ‘Angelic’. The series has just returned to the Judge Dredd Megazine, so listen again to Gordon explain the origins his ‘origin story’ of the notorious Angel Gang.
And then, to mark his return to art duties for the 2000 AD Sci-Fi Special, we revisit the fantastic anecdotes of our long interview with artist and former 2000 AD art editor Robin Smith, from what happens when a whole portfolio of art goes missing, to working out how to make a Tharg head, and the trials of a Doctor Who inker!
The Thrill-Cast continues to broadcast every week, with both new episodes and favourite interviews from the past six years – so make sure you’re keeping yourselves and your loved ones safe, and stay tuned for more from the Galaxy’s Greatest Podcast!
