40 years on from issue 1, 2000AD keeps its place as 'the galaxy's greatest comic'.

The regular podcast gives some great insights into the creative process that produces 2000AD though interviews with the writers and artists as well as some of the publishing team.

The recent extra podcasts from the 40 year 2000AD event in Hammersmith have been a splendid bonus. Each additional podcast has covered a panel discussion or creator interview. These have given some great historical information on 2000AD and the work of the brilliant creative minds behind it. Some have also offered hints of the future for 2000AD and its characters.

If you're interested in comics, British pop culture, SF, or the creative process get this podcast.

I LOVE THIS PODCAST!!

AS A FAN OF 2000AD AND DREDD

5/5.

The official podcast of the Galaxy's Greatest Comic. If you are a reader of 2000AD then you are already subscribing but if you are any kind of comic fan then this podcast is a must listen. With 40 years of history, 2000AD is a huge influence on western comics, this podcast features interview with key industry figures giving you behind the scenes insights into what goes on to produce comic books (both past & present).

As well as showcasing the work of writers and artists, kudos must be given to the episodes that spotlight the tireless work of production designers, letters, fans etc.

Top up your thrill power levels by listening to this podcast. Guarenteed to inject thrill power into any aspect of your Terran life.

Love this podcast. So great to get such insight into the history and making of one of the UK's best comics - and the other comics that informed and were informed by 2000AD. Essential comic-lover fuel.

Excellent pod cast, loving it. Great for nostalgia moments and cultural referencing. Importantly for me the podcast has been a means by which I've really got back into 2000AD. I stopped reading it after the Apocalypse War I think, jings way back in 1982/3. A very good balance between being interesting, fun and informative and that thing called commercial imperative (very, very minimal). Right enough I've bought a shed load of digital graphic novels and other stuffs on the basis of what I've heard on the podcast. Cliche time 'this is what a podcast about a cultural icon should sound like' nuff said.

It took me a while to try this podcast because I just assumed it would be promotional fluff but it's actually a fun, frank and engaging look behind the scenes.

A brilliant podcast for 2000ad fans as we get to hear from the current makers and classic creators of the Galaxies Greatest Comic. Great stuff!

Brilliant!

Great podcast & great addition to the 2000AD camp. has some great insights into the greatest comic ever and also on how to pronunce a lot of the 2000AD world. surely its M.A.C.H. One !!!

who knew the droids sounded so human??

months later ... continues to be fascinating to this long time reader of the Galaxy’s greatest comic

really enjoy this podcast - has reignited my love for 2000ad and the world of Judge Dredd, Zenith, Strontium Dog etc

Unfortunately can’t afford the mega collection but this podcast brings back memories and introduces the listener to new epics

Great work

Good interview and behind the scenes information

Molch-R was clearly nervous when the podcast began, and not a natural broadcaster; but he’s an intelligent droid and his work improves with each podcast.

If you are a fan of the comics medium, this is a highly enjoyable and fascinating listen.

If you are a fan of Judge Dredd/2000AD, it is pretty much compulsory.

I am pretty picky with podcasts, so if they are good but not holding my attention, I drop my subscription. I started with the first Thrill-Cast, I’m still here, and it’s getting better.

Recommended.

Been listening to these from the start and I felt April 15th release was the most interesting and rounded to date. Great list of guests and nice to speak to a writer as well as the raft of artists. With SO much material to work at there is no reason why this cannot go from strength to strength. A monthly release wound be a shame!

Been a fan of 2000 AD and Dredd for years but weirdly non of my mates want to talk to me about the subject Ha! Brilliant to finally have a podcast where I can listen to other people (droids) waxing lyrical about the Big Meg and such.

Also excellent marketing tool, I have just subscribed to the Mega Collection... looking forward to receiving my Dredd badge with the first issue... I'm 37 years old...

Great insight into past and present creators and stories. A must for fans.

Hearing 2000AD and its contributors is all i wanted as a sci fi Brit in the 70s, and now I’m nearly 50 I’m so glad I’ve away read, listened and watched ( rarely, i admit) all things 2000AD+ Dredd

Thanks Tharg

Ps i was a letter winner in prog 52 (thanks for the postal order value £5)

as a sensible child it was invested, i now own a smallish moon..

Great work, fine insights into the history of the comic.

While I can't read Dredd Mega Collection at work, I can always listen to a podcast about it.

I havent read 2000AD in years but I loved it when I was a kid and can remember buying the first issue in 1976/1977. I still have an interest in the characters and really enjoyed the first couple of episodes of this podcast. It is clear sound quality and not full of swearing. Enjoyed the interview with Colin MacNeil and would love it if they had more interviews with some of the creators from the early days.

I love the fan podcasts but this is the real deal. The first two have been really good and broadcast quality.

PR droid Molch-R takes us behind Tharg's curtain with interviews and discussions with key people involved in the making of the Galaxy's Greatest Comic, and Mega City One's Greatest Lawman! While initial episodes are focused on the Judge Dredd Mega Collection, I look forward to seeing more varied topics covering some of the other universes in 2000AD's wheelhouse. Perhaps a Nikolai Dante retrospective, one day?!
