This month, ST33V is joined by critic, academic and podcaster Anna Peppard to chat about this charming occult investigator, worldwide celebrity, and full-time vampire, who was one of the first openly gay characters in British comics.

He enjoys both body-building and flower arranging, and is one of the most famous (and lusted-after) gay celebrities in the world.

Three collections of classic Devlin are available from all good book and comic book stores, as well as online and from the 2000 AD webshop, and digitally from the 2000 AD webshop and app!
