2000AD is 35 years young today so celebrations to the droids and of course the Zarjaz editor himself Tharg and if course those ed-droids (see below) for giving me such enjoyment over the years.
Here's the original TV-ad:
The comic introduced the world to such brilliance as Judge Dredd, Strontium Dog, Rogue Trooper, Halo Jones...I could go on and on. For those non-scrots out there, go and check out the website where you can find books, comics, t-shirts etc and find out why it is stil the Galaxy's greatest comic. Splundig vur thrigg
And no drinking - despite Han Solo was obviously over the limit going from the Cantina to the Millennium Falcon:
So I have been a huge fan of Judge Dredd for a long time and now, there's a new movie coming out, filmed in South Africa and starring Karl Urban and now, courtesy of scans of Empire magazine, more pics are out:

We've had mass surveillance, riot foam is being developed, there are many more pseudo officals acting as judge and jury (if not executioner) with on-the-spot fines and now they want to ban smoking from public places!!!
It's only a matter of time before the smokatorium arrives
