December 21, 2022 Episode 215: A Tribute to Alan Grant
The 2000 AD Thrill-Cast returns for a special pre-Christmas episode paying tribute to writer Alan Grant, who passed away in July this year.

In a discussion recorded at New York Comic Con, writer Garth Ennis, editor Dan Raspler, and comics critic Chloe Maveal discuss the impact and legacy of Grant's work, before Ennis reads a personal letter from Grant that reveals the secret origins of Alec Trench!

We then hear a special, never-before-aired interview recorded at the beginning of 2021, in which Grant talks alongside his friend and long-time co-writer John Wagner about how they met, their time working together, and their reflections of their distinguished careers. A not-to-be-missed interview, which was one of Grant's last.

The Battle Action Special is out in comci book stores on 8 June and we welcome back writer Garth Ennis to the 2000 AD podcast to talk about how influential Battle Action was on him and his career, the ins and outs of writing war comics, and why without Battle there'd be no 2000 AD!

We're then joined by two of the artists from this hardcover special - Keith Burns and Patrick Goddard - to discuss following in the footsteps of artistic giants like John Cooper and Mike Western, how they approach drawing action, and why reference isn't cheating!

April 28, 2022 Episode 213: From Crisis to Prose to Comics - 45th anniversary panels
It’s the galaxy’s greatest podcast – The 2000 AD Thrill-Cast brings you more from the worlds of 2000 AD!

With things a little hectic in the 2000 AD Nerve Centre we bring you three of the panels from our 45th birthday online convention last month...

The second wave of the 'British Invasion' no less an impact on American comics than the first. Host Torunn Grønbekk talks to Garth Ennis, Sean Phillips and John McCrea, all of whom graduated from the 'mature comics' boom of the late '80s and early '90s and went on to have a huge impact on the industry.

Comedian and broadcaster Robin Ince talks to best-selling crime writer Ian Rankin, award-winning sci-fi author Lauren Beukes, and popular children's writer Louie Stowell about comics, prose, and the influence of 2000 AD.

And in 2000 AD: Beyond Borders, host Kelly Kanayama talks to 2000 AD writers Arthur Wyatt and Michael Carroll (Judge Dredd) and artist Chris Burnham (Judge Dredd, Batman) about their perspectives on this quintessentially British comic book export.

All of the panels from our 45th anniversary online show are available to watch at 2000AD.com/45years

It’s the galaxy’s greatest podcast – The 2000 AD Thrill-Cast brings you more from the worlds of 2000 AD!

With the 'Blaze of Glory' collection bringing together his lauded Judge Dredd stories out now, we revisit our long chat with hit comics writer Al Ewing from 2018.

Bringing a unique new voice to 2000 AD, his vivid imagination and dark humour-tinged stories quickly established him as one of 2000 AD's most popular writers and a regular on Judge Dredd, where he worked with Si Spurrier and Rob Williams on the hugely successful Judge Dredd crossover epic, Trifecta. With his on-going success with Marvel Comics, Ewing sits down with Molch-R to discuss his beginnings as a writer, his preferred version of 'The Marvel Method', his thoughts on continuity, and whether he's coming back to the Galaxy's Greatest Comic.
