The 2000 AD Thrill-Cast Lockdown Tapes: Misty & Scream! and Invasion! deep-dive

Welcome to the thirty-seventh of The Lockdown Tapes as The 2000 AD Thrill-Cast continues to broadcast the joys of Thrill-power during the COVID-19 pandemic! Got a theme or interview you’d like to hear? Let us know at thrillcast@2000AD.com

The nights are drawing in, so it’s time to curl up with a good scare story … or how about the Misty & Scream! Special, which is out now? We’re join by writers Kristyna Baczynski, Cavan Scott, Maura McHugh, and Alec Worley to talk about things that go bump in the middle of the night, how comics can be scary, and their own ideas of what makes them quake!

And then critic and writer Claire Napier takes a deep-dive into Invasion!, one of inaugural thrills of 2000 AD that was revived in 2004 as Savage. More than four decades on, how does this classic series read and did its sequel compete or complement its legacy?
