[QUOTE="Palifan, post: 530491, member: 4095"] There has been a lot of information on the podcasts over the years about what you've mentioned and the 2000AD doc. Future Shock tells the whole history of the comic so is definitely worth a watch. I got back into reading the comic a couple of years back and fortunately still had a stack of the old comics at my parents that I've been working m,y way through. They progs are from around 600 onwards and this was a great period for characters and stories. Ian [/quote] During the lockdown and limited days on and off work I have started reading from prog 4 upwards i'm up to 148 at the moment and the thrill suckers haven't affected me yet , some of the early stories not often reprinted are so good , better stop or they will have to make a 2000ad thread section in off topic :lol: i do post the odd sw article when i find them, as i read, but think most of the adverts have been seen before, :) [/quote] Ok, last post about 2000AD from me as well :lol: I do have the first 20 issues which I was surprised to see how violent some of the stories are and I had these comics from prog 1 growing up so I've no idea what I thought of it all back then ( I suspect I couldn't read it very well and was just happy to see some future action and spaceships). I did get a bunch of the Quality US/UK reprints though that had many of the old stories in them and agree how good it was back in the day. It still does have it's moments today though but I normally find that there's the odd story that doesn't interest me so much where as during the 70's/80's it really was firing on all cylinders fairly consistently. I can see why it's still around today and I have picked up a few of the graphic novels recently from characters I've never heard of like cabalistic inc which was a great read in that Hellboy sort of world. Happy days! :D Ian [/QUOTE]
