It’s the galaxy’s greatest podcast – and The 2000 AD Thrill-Cast is back with another injection of Thrill-power for your ears!

The 2000 AD Encyclopedia is out in February, in time for 2000 AD's 45th anniversary. A might tome representing chapter and verse on four and a half decade of the galaxy's greatest comics from aaron A. Aardvark to Zombo! Molch-R talks to journalist and writer Scott Montgomery about the unenviable task of condensing and compressing so many thrills down into a single book.

Plus: it's Thought Bubble this weekend and we hear from the judges on the 2000 AD Talent Search panels - Liana Kangas, Doug Braithwaite, Olivia Hicks, Maura McHugh, Ram V, and Oliver Pickles - about their thoughts on the process ahead, which will see two contestants given the opportunity of paid work with 2000 AD, and what they're looking for in the winning entries!
