- Tharg's droids chat about 2000 AD in the year 1987. My just look at how young they all were, apart from a few!
If you enjoyed this, then have a look here futureshock2000ad.com/ as this is the latest documentary about 2000 AD and having seen it myself, I know that you will thoroughly enjoy this as well.

in my opinion 2000 AD is better than dc and marvel
Alan Grant is the most underappreciated writer in comics history
its very disappointing to see that 2000ad wasn't actually written and drawn by droids :(
I was a fan from the very first issue or Prog. It was clearly aimed at an audience much older than the Beano and Dandy readers. I was only 9 when I started reading 2000AD. Unfortunately my treasured collection of Progs starting from Prog 1 got thrown out by my mum when I started having nightmares about Ant Wars. Mum told me I leapt out of bed screaming my head off about a giant ant being on my bedroom wall. She soon realised it was linked to a 2000AD story. Straight in the bin. I was a fan of Starlord too.
Saw this advertized in the comic at the time for £10 something which was way out of my price range then being a mid-teen. Great to see it at last.
Johnny Alpha, Halo Jones, Judge Anderson, Slaine...the very best of British.
Hard to believe that the Stallone Dredd movie would go into production just six or seven years after this aired.
Great to put faces and voices to the names I had seen so many, many times in the Credits boxes in each issue. Now I’m in my late fifties, yet still look back on how formative 2000AD was in my youth and into adulthood. If I could do it all over, would loved to have walked in to the 2000AD offices and said “Give us a job!” Working with such creative artists and writers, finding their way and their footing, and fighting ‘the establishment’ in all its forms. Loved “Rogue Trooper” and “Slaine”, but looking back, “Halo Jones” and “Skizz” were so impactful and before their time. Thanks for posting, and giving me a window into the stories behind the stories I grew up with
After Bolland, McMahon was my favorite 2000AD artist. Cool to see him for the first time.
Loved the bit where Alan Moore "apologizes" for being a co-creator of DR & Quinch and where he contrasts and compares them with Dennis The Menace only they have thermonuclear capabilities - DR & Quinch was my first exposure to 2000 AD stuff and it is my fondest memory of reading any sort of comic book stuff . . . I tell you, they should look into getting James Gunn to direct a movie of DR & Quinch as it would be bigger than Guardians of the Galaxy and Deadpool combined.
Just watched Future Shock, and this footage feels like an essential addendum. It's a crying shame that this wasn't included as an extra. Cheers for the upload.
I remember getting the first ever copy of 2000
Excellent, nice find John.
Enormous thanks for this, John. I remember it being advertised in the progs at the time - so happy to finally be able to see it!
John, a grateful thank you also. Boundless respect for the artists and creators of 2000AD. It is a great pleasure to see them and hear them speak about the comic we spent hours, months and years looking at and reading throughout those years.
Wonderful documentary.
Excellent! It's especially nice to see Alan Moore talking about his work with 2000 AD, although I'm a bit perplexed as to why John Wagner isn't present.
Thanks so much for sharing this. Makes me feel old... but happy. :)
Was an avid 2000AD reader I'm an all things sci-fi fan loved Judge Dredd Strontium Dog ABC warriors and the Future Shocks stories wish I still had all of my back issues Thrill Power AAF
This is really fascinating - great time capsule, and informative.
