The best-selling Judge Dredd series continues with Case Files 41, Kenny Who returns with a new comic book idea lampooning the Judges, PJ Maybe continues to evade Judge Dredd, and a disillusioned war hero returns to Mega-City One - transformed into a Mandroid.
John Wagner has been scripting for 2000 AD for more years
than he cares to remember. His creations include Judge Dredd,
Strontium Dog, Ace Trucking, Al’s Baby, Button Man and Mean
Machine. Outside of 2000 AD his credits include Star Wars, Lobo,
The Punisher and the critically acclaimed A History of
Violence.
With over 300 2000 AD stories to his name – not to mention over 250
Daily Star Judge Dredd strips – Alan Grant’s prolific
creative record speaks for itself. Outside the Galaxy’s Greatest
Comic, Grant is well-known to Batman fans following a lengthy run
on various incarnations of the title. More recently he has adapted
Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic novels Kidnapped and Doctor Jekyll
and Mr Hyde in Graphic Novel format with artist Cam Kennedy.
Simon Spurrier writes novels and comics. His work in the
latter field stretches from award winning creator-owned books such
as Numbercruncher, Six-Gun Gorilla and The Spire to projects in the
U.S. mainstream like Hellblazer, The Dreaming, and X-Men. It all
began with a series of twist-in-the-tail stories for the UK's
beloved 2000AD, which ignited an enduring love for genre fiction.
His latest book, Coda, is being published by Boom! Studios at
present. His prose works range from the beatnik neurosis-noir of
Contract to the occult whodunnit A Serpent Uncoiled via various
franchise and genre-transgressing titles. In 2016 he took a foray
into experimental fiction with the e-novella Unusual
Concentrations: a tale of coffee, crime and overhead conversations.
He lives in Margate, regards sushi as part of the plotting process,
and has the fluffiest of cats.
Carlos Ezquerra was the co-creator of Judge Dredd, Strontium
Dog, Rat Pack, Major Eazy and many other fan favourite characters,
he designed the classic original Dredd costume as well as visually
conceptualising Mega-City One. In addition to these credits he also
illustrated A.B.C. Warriors, Judge Anderson, Tharg the Mighty, and
Cursed Earth Koburn amongst many other stories. Outside of the
‘Galaxy’s Greatest Comic’, Ezquerra illustrated the first Third
World War episodes in Crisis magazine, and become a regular
collaborator with Garth Ennis, working on Adventures in the Rifle
Brigade, Bloody Mary, Just a Pilgrim, Condors, The Magnificent
Kevin and two special Preacher episodes. He died in 2018 but his
profound influence on the world of comic art cannot be
overstated.
Cam Kennedy is a hugely popular 2000 AD artist, having
illustrated many Judge Dredd strips and co-created luckless wannabe
creator Kenny Who? and the Taxidermist. A key early Rogue Trooper
artist, he has also drawn Batman/Judge Dredd: Vendetta in Gotham,
Judge Dredd, Tharg the Mighty, Tharg’s Future Shocks, and The
V.C.’s. His extracurricular work includes Axel Pressbutton, Batman,
Lobo, Nick Fury: Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., and Star Wars.
Kev Walker is the co-creator of Badlands and The Balls
Brothers, and has also provided artwork for Dan Dare, Judge Dredd,
Future Shocks, Harlem Heroes, Mercy Heights, Rogue Trooper, Time
Twisters and Tor Cyan. For the Judge Dredd Megazine, he wrote The
Inspectre and has illustrated Judge Anderson, Mean Machine and
Wynter. Walker has recently finished an acclaimed run on DC’s
L.E.G.I.O.N. and has pencilled Marvel Comics’ The Eternal.
Dave Taylor began drawing comics professionally for Marvel
UK after many failed attempts at being a rock star drummer. He was
head hunted by DC to work on a Batman one shot with Grendel
writer/artist Matt Wagner, going on to work predominantly on Batman
titles such as Batman: Shadow of the Bat (with Alan Grant),
Detective Comics, Batman: Black and White and others. His
collaboration with graphic designer extraordinaire Chip Kidd on
Batman: Death by Design became a New York Times best seller
(twice). Taylor's acclaimed adult only series Tongue Lash grew from
his friendship with French comic Master Jean Moebius Giraud, who
Taylor also worked with on an Arzak story. He has also produced
work for TV, movies and the games industry and is presently
employed by the United States Space Force as an extraterrestrial
translator.
Paul J. Holden has illustrated The 86ers, Judge Dredd,
Tharg’s Future Shocks, Rogue Trooper and Johnny Woo for 2000 AD and
the Judge Dredd Megazine. P.J. lives and works in Belfast, and is
married with two children.
Boo Cook’s 2000 AD debut came some years before he was to
provide pencils for the comic proper – as a young man, he sent a
fan sketch in to the letters page! Thankfully he continued to hone
his art, working on a number of Future Shocks before landing a
guest spot on the fan-favourite A.B.C. Warriors series. Cook’s
facility with huge crowd scenes and alien designs has quickly
established him as a talent to watch, and with three co-created
series — Asylum, Dead Men Walking, Harry Kipling (Deceased) — under
his belt, he is one of the Galaxy’s Greatest’s brightest hopes for
the future.
Phil Winslade is a veteran of the industry. As well as his
work for 2000 AD, his considerable talents as an artist have graced
the pages of a variety of comics for DC, Vertigo and Marvel,
including Batman, Daredevil, Goddess, Spider-Man and the legendary
Steve Gerber’s Howard the Duck and Nevada. As well as being the
co-creator of Lawless, his work with the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic
includes a story for Tharg’s Terror Tales, several Judge Dredd
strips including a one-off Judge Dredd for Free Comic Book Day
2017.
Andrew Currie made his 2000 AD debut with Judge Dredd,
following success in America with series like Ninjak and Seeker
3000. He has also worked on Sinister Dexter, The Inspectre and Bato
Loco.
