John Wagner
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.
Alan Grant
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.
Brian Bolland
Perhaps the most popular 2000 AD artist of all time,
Brian Bolland’s clean-line style and meticulous attention to
detail ensure that his artwork on strips including Dan Dare, Future
Shocks, Judge Dredd and Walter the Wobot looks as fresh today as it
did when first published. Co-creator of both Judge Anderson and The
Kleggs, Bolland’s highly detailed style unfortunately precluded him
from doing many sequential strips — although he found the time to
pencil both Camelot 3000 and Batman: The Killing Joke
for DC Comics.

been one of the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic’s most beloved artists.

A.B.C. Warriors, Daily Star Dredd, Judge Anderson, Judge Dredd,
Kelly, Mega-City One, Rogue Trooper, Ro-Jaws, Robo-Tales and
Universal Soldier. Beyond 2000 AD, Ewins was a co-founding editor
of Deadline magazine, and co-pencilled and inked the hugely
acclaimed Skreemer series, which he co-created with writer Peter
Milligan. He also created Johnny Nemo, which now enjoyed
great success in Cyberosia Publishing’s new US edition. He died in
2015.
Cliff Robinson
Cliff Robinson is one of 2000 AD’s longest-serving
artists, having made his debut with a Future Shock way back in Prog
362! Since then, he has co-created Mother Earth, and illustrated
numerous Judge Dredd strips, as well as Future Shocks, Judge
Anderson and Venus Bluegenes.
Robin Smith

Grant.

Rot & Ruin, and illustrated covers for Titan’s Doctor
Who line of comics.
Pat Mills

and co-creator of ABC Warriors, Finn, Flesh, Nemesis the Warlock
and Slaine. In the US, Pat is best known for Marshal Law,
the cult character he co-created with artist Kevin O'Neill.

artists. He has contributed to Future Shocks, Judge Dredd,
Nemesis the Warlock, Ro-Busters and Sláine in the Galaxy’s Greatest

body of graphic novel work, which includes The Adventures of
Luther Arkwright, Heart of Empire, The Tale of One Bad Rat and
Alice in Sunderland.
Andy Clarke
Andy Clarke make his 2000 AD debut on Sinister Dexter
and quickly gained in popularity thanks to his highly detailed and
realistic artwork. He proceeded to illustrate Judge Dredd, Nikolai
Dante, Rose O’ Rion, Pulp Sci-Fi and his first co-created series,
punk psychic thriller Thirteen. The success of the latter saw
Clarke teamed with Andy Diggle on Snow/Tiger and with Robbie
Morrison on Shimura.
