The official 2000 AD podcast continues its chat with artist Henry Flint, now focusing on life beyond the walls of Mega-City One - from outer space slaughter with Shakara to haunted tanks, from his love of surrealism to predicting Donald Trump would become president (or did he?).

Having established himself as one of the definitive Judge Dredd artists of the the last 20 years thanks to work on Total War, Day of Chaos, Titan, Enceladus, and now The Small House, Henry Flint is a fan favourite artist whose work evokes the classic styles of Mick McMahon and Kevin O'Neill as well as Carlos Ezquerra and Ron Smith. Easily able to switch between action and comedy, he's the co-creator of the weaponised zombie Zombo with Al Ewing as well as artist on Sancho Panzer, rogue Trooper, Nikolai Dante, Shakara and many other strips.

As Judge Dredd: The Small House draws to a close, 2000 AD Thrill-Cast host Molch-R sits down with Flint for a two-part interview covering the beginning of his love of comics and getting his break at 2000 AD as part of the post-British Invasion generation of creators in the 1990s, as well as his work for American comics. From childhood doodles to nearly bankrupting 2000 AD, Flint's career is both a fascinating snapshot of a changing industry but also an illustration of how creative evolution never stops.

From the snow-bound battlefields of World War II to those of the 19th early Century, one of the most popular horror strips from 2000 AD has returned with a new setting but a familiar face! It was great to welcome writer Ian Edginton back to the Thrill-Cast to discuss his and Dave Taylor's atmospheric new series, Fiends of the Eastern Front: 1812, which explores just part of the back-story of Gerry Finley-Day and Carlos Ezquerra's 1980 war horror classic.

Plus we talk to graphic novel editor Keith Richardson about the books out this month from The Treasury of British Comics, including Alan Hebden and Carlos Ezquerra's El Mestizo and Sniper Elite: Resistance!

Everyone at 2000 AD is still reeling from the news that Carlos Ezquerra has passed away. In this episode of the 2000 AD podcast, we talk to some of the people who knew and worked with him, and just a few of the other 2000 AD creators who were influenced by his incredible work over half a century - Garth Ennis, Matt Smith, Dave Gibbons, Kelvin Gosnell, Jock, Rob Williams, David Baillie, PJ Holden, Simon Fraser and Al Ewing.

One of the all-time greatest comic book artists, the Spanish illustrator was one of the titans of 2000 AD. Originally from Zaragoza, Carlos began his career in Barcelona, drawing westerns and war stories for Spanish publishers. Breaking into the UK market on romance titles like Valentine and Mirabelle, he was head-hunted for the new IPC title Battle Picture Weekly where he drew Rat Pack, Major Eazy and El Mestizo.

In 1976, he was asked to create a new character, the future lawman Judge Dredd, for a new weekly science fiction comic called 2000 AD. Thanks to his enduring partnership with John Wagner, Dredd was to become one of the world’s most recognisable comic book characters, with Carlos there to apply his inimitable style to some of the biggest stories in the strip’s history, such as The Apocalypse War, Necropolis and Origins.

Thanks to Dredd as well as his co-creation of Strontium Dog, created for Starlord in 1978, his adaptation for 2000 AD of Harry Harrison’s Stainless Steel Rat, and thousands upon thousands of comic book pages, Carlos was lauded by readers and creators alike.

Modest and unassuming, Carlos was nonetheless a legend whose contribution to the global comic book industry cannot be understated. His distinctive style - characterised by breathtakingly dynamic, high-energy storytelling and the distinctive ridged thick inking that outlined so many key moments - was instantly recognisable.

Despite a brush with lung cancer in 2010, he continued to work and, although the cancer returned this year it was believed he was recovering well. His sudden death is a profound loss not just to 2000 AD but to the comic book medium.

One of comics’ rock ‘n’ roll superstars, Simon Bisley’s incredible artwork changed the industry forever in the late 1980s with his work on Slaine: The Horned God and Judge Dredd, producing a myriad imitators and launching a decade-long fad for painted comics art.

We round off our coverage of the 2000 AD panels at San Diego Comic Con 2018 with a recording of the 'Spotlight on Simon Bisley' panel as 2000 AD publicity droid Mike Molcher sits down with Simon in front of a live audience to discuss his work, career, and philosophy.

A unique and irrepressible talent, Simon’s work has reached far beyond the page to influence mainstream culture, and while he has always evolved, his style remains timelessly recognizable.

From The Leopard from Lime Street to Whizzer and Chips, from horror comics aimed at young girls to warped humor comics for preteens, these weekly anthologies were a unique influence on some of the biggest names in comics and, with their weekly format and cross-genre mashups, form the missing link between American comics, European comics, and manga.

Discover the untold story of British comics with moderator Michael Molcher and guests Rosie Knight (Nerdist) Ben Smith (head of books and comic books for Rebellion), Jack Davisson (translator: Devilman & Showa: A History of Japan) and Graeme McMillan (The Hollywood Reporter).
