Ron Smith drew many 2000 AD stories including some of the epic Judge Dredd tale, 'The Day The Law Died'. His other work for 2000 AD includes, Rogue Trooper, Harlem Heroes, Chronos Carnival and Tales of The Doghouse.
Outside of 2000 AD, he also illstrated strips for DC Thomson titles, including, Warlord, Hotspur and The Victor. FOr Marvel UK he illustrated a popular Transformers story (Wreck and Rule), which was written by Simon Furman.
John Wagner has been scripting for 2000 AD for more years than he cares to remember. His creations include Judge Dredd, Strontium Dog, Ace Trucking, Al's Baby, Button Man and Mean Machine. Outside of 2000 AD his credits include Star Wars, Lobo, The Punisher and the critically acclaimed, A History of Violence.
His characters all spiky lines and outsized boots, Mick McMahon - sometimes known as Mike - co-created perennial 2000 AD favourites The V.C.s, and provided Tharg with many classic episodes of Judge Dredd, Ro-Busters, A.B.C. Warriors and Slaine. Outside of the Galaxy's Greatest Comic, he drew an adventure with the original Cybermen for Doctor Who Magazine; Sonic the Hedgehog for Sonic the Comic; and, in America, issues of Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight plus the mini-series Tattered Banners and The Last American, the latter co-created with John Wagner and Alan Grant.
Perhaps the most popular 2000 AD artist of all time, Brian Bolland's clean-line style and meticulous attention to detail ensure that his artwork on strips including, Dan Dare, Future Shocks, Judge Dredd and Walter the Wobot looks as fresh today as it did when first published. Co-creator of both Judge Anderson and the Kleggs, Bolland's highly detailed style unfortunately precluded him from doing many sequential strips - although he found the time to pencil both Camelot 3000 and Batman: The Killing Joke for DC Comics.
