2000AD, the beloved weekly home of Judge Dredd turns 40 years old this year. As part of the Stoke Newington Literary Festival, celebrate with two insiders who’ve worn the mantle of ‘Tharg’, alien editor of the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic.

Steve MacManus edited 2000AD in its 1980s heyday, and current editor Matt Smith presides over a new golden age.

The two Thargs have the skinny on favourite characters, top creators and more. Steve will be signing copies of The Mighty One: My Life Inside The Nerve Centre.

Moderated by Andrew Harrison of the Bigmouth pop culture podcast. Suitable for Earthlets of all ages.

2000AD at 40: A Tale of Two Thargs 4.00pm Sunday 4th June, 181 Stoke Newington Church St, Stoke Newington, London N16 0UL. Part of the Stoke Newington Literary Festival
