A seminal Judge Dredd artist and a towering figure in British comics, Mick is a remarkably humble and down-to-earth guy who is responsible for the 'big boots' look of Dredd's outfit as well as many iconic covers and key moments for the future's greatest lawman. He also brought a unique look to Sláine and Ro-Busters before going on to co-create the incredible Last American. The 2000 AD Thrill-Cast sits down for a landmark two hour interview with one of the greatest 2000 AD artists of all time.
