2000 AD's 37th birthday

Molch-R · 24 January, 2014, 03:35:53 PM

Pop quiz, hotshots: it's just a month to go until 2000 AD's 37th birthday, and we're going to throw a bit of an online party - how would you like to see us celebrate and what would you like to see from the online droids?

It would be wonderful if you could ask Karl to send a youtube birthday message in character - I don't imagine it would too hard to find someone to send a helmet.

I'd like to see Karl & Olivia on the cover posing in the official replica costumes as Dredd & Anderson.

Unfortunately whatever we do it won't be involving Karl or Olivia, I'm afraid :/

I think readers who also happen to have a birthday in February should be invited to the party. People who turn, oh, 33 perhaps could get priority on this.

Ah, that's a shame.

How about 2000AD droids film themselves singing Happy Birthday (or non-copyrighted Al Ewing scripted equivalent) and cut between them.

Or should I ask about Karl again

I would like to see Alec Trench make an appearance in the birthday Prog.

An online party! How thrilling, will there be nibbles?

Can we have a wraparound Ezquerra cover

No, but there will be bytes.

A birthday story about Dredd... OK I know it is way too late for a story to be scripted n drawn n published...

But an online short story, maybe Vienna's birthday. Dolman trying to cheer her up by getting Uncle Joe round to see her in her new post-Chaos Day home. Cousin Rico round.

Or I also like Jim's suggestion of cake. Chocolate cake though please.
