With his pop art sensibilities, and use of photo references and bold colours, Steve Sampson's work was a regular fixture of the Judge Dredd Megazine and 2000 AD in the 1990s; starting with Brit-Cit Babes and then creating a significant body of work on the Judge Anderson series, Sampson's style had both fans and detractors. The Thrill-Cast talks to him about his life and career, from ditching art college to illustrating for men's magazines, from working in a sheet metal factory to moving into the video games industry.

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?

We continue our celebration of 30 years of the Judge Dredd Megazine with a podcast first - every editor of the Megazine from the past three decades, all together! We host Steve MacManus, David Bishop, John Tomlinson, Andy Diggle, Alan Barnes, and Matt Smith as they discuss the creation and life of the Megazine, its highs and lows, its relations with 2000 AD, and whether it has achieved its mission to open up the world of Judge Dredd.

We then take another dive into the archive and back to our very first episode in 2015, with artist Colin MacNeil talking about working on one of the Megazine's first ever stories - 'America'.

A seminal Judge Dredd artist and a towering figure in British comics, Mick is a remarkably humble and down-to-earth guy who is responsible for the 'big boots' look of Dredd's outfit as well as many iconic covers and key moments for the future's greatest lawman. He also brought a unique look to Sláine and Ro-Busters before going on to co-create the incredible Last American. The 2000 AD Thrill-Cast sits down for a landmark two hour interview with one of the greatest 2000 AD artists of all time.

As Molch-R is off to recharge his batteries in isolation for a week, on this episode we return to the biggest interview the Thrill-Cast has ever broadcast - the epic chat with John Wagner from 2016! It’s hard to overstate John’s impact on the industry as co-creator of Judge Dredd, Strontium Dog, Button Man, and so much more. In this three hour interview, John discusses his life and career, from the beginnings of the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic, his writing partnership with Alan Grant, why he thinks he’s never made it in American comics, and his thoughts about the future of his greatest creation. It's a feast for the ears, though with some hefty background noise from the pub!

Dan Abnett and Mark Harrison sci-fi odyssey series, The Out, has become something of a sleeper hit in the pages of 2000 AD. At the furthest edge of the universe, Cyd Finlea is photo-journalist working for the publishers Global Neographic, travelling deep into outer space — otherwise known as THE OUT — and cataloguing the alien societies that she encounters. She left Earth ten years ago and has lost track of how far she is from home, but regardless she keeps going. Dan and Mark discuss the series' serendipitous creation, the influence of 1970s and '80s sci-fi book covers, and how Cyd's journey through The Out tells us something out the here and now.

With his portfolio in hand, a young Anthony Williams would travel from Swansea to London to show his portfolio to editors - almost 40 years later and his artistic career has spanned licensed tie-ins such as The Real Ghostbusters, Supernaturals, and Action Force for Marvel UK, as well as Judge Dredd, Babe Race 2000, The VCs, Kola Commandos and Big Dave for 2000 AD, superheroes with 'The Big Two' in America, but then a pivot into using his experience of comics in the world of licensing and marketing. The Thrill-Cast talks to Anthony about his journey, which is one of an artist finding their place in a changing industry, putting food on the table while trying to establish his own reputation.
