Talking heads on their hard hitting seminal comic
7 May 2016
I wasn't into 2000AD when I was young, didn't know anyone who really was, which was my loss. Once you read a few of their mags, your eyes are opened and you see the quality and originality of what they have been striving to do.

This documentary is a down to earth talking heads history of those who built & fashioned the comic & characters over all these years. We don't get much in the way of comic shots or nasty stories, we have the whole spate of familiar & legendary names giving us their frank opinion on the whole comic.

Its place in the annals of comic history is indisputable, and this documentary is recording for posterity those views.

There is nothing necessarily special in this doc, it was trying to record lives and history, and it achieves that.

If you're interested in comics then this is great, for 2000AD fans it is indispensable. Enjoy and be enlightened. Need to dig out those old Dredd anthology volumes again for a good old read.
