Future Shock! The Story of 2000ad
- Synopsis
- First published in 1977 at the height of the punk era, UK Sci-Fi comic 2000AD was violent, anti-authoritarian, darkly funny and distinctly British. With such iconic characters as Strontium Dog, Nemesis and Judge Dredd, it became the anarchic underdog that forever changed the face of the international comics industry.
Offering a comprehensive overview of the comic’s history, this documentary takes a look at the various highs and lows of a publication that still remains one of the most successful comics more than 40 years later. It features interviews with: Pat Mills (ABC Warriors, Slaine), Dave Gibbons (Watchmen), Neil Gaiman (The Sandman), Karl Urban (Dredd) and Alex Garland (Ex Machina). - Language
