Author: 2000 AD March 2, 2023 Duration: 1:50:58
Did Judge Dredd predict the future? In a startling turn of events, Molch-R goes from interviewer to interviewee as journalist Graeme McMillan grills him about his new book, 'I Am The Law', which is out now. And, with the news that Best of 2000 AD has been a hit on both sides of the Atlantic, we head back to New York Comic Con from last October to hear from McMillan, Chloe Maveal, Tiffany Babb, Judge Dredd writer Arthur Wyatt, and Rebellion droid Owen Johnson about the series and what it reveals about the state of the good ship 2000 AD!
