Created by 2000 AD artists Brett Ewins & Steve Dillon, it was the anarchic, irreverent and hugely influential 'mature' comic that ran from 1988 to 1995 and changed the face of the industry — from featuring Alan Martin & Jamie Hewlett's wildly-popular 'Tank Girl' and early work by Philip Bond, Glyn Dillon, D'Israeli, and Nick Abadzis, to sparking a whole host of imitators. On this episode of In Orbit Every Wednesday, Molch-R and KLO-E discuss the history and creators behind this seminal title in British culture.
Then we take you to Emerald City Comic Con in Seattle for the 'All Gas, No Brakes: How Deadline Shaped Tank Girl, Gorillaz, and Pop Culture Media Forever' panel as host KLO-E is joined by 2000 AD writer Arthur Wyatt, journalist Graeme McMillan, and Chris Northrop, project manager of A1/Deadline as they discuss Britpop, post-punk, mutant kangaroos, anthropomorphic monkeys with crazy rhythm, girls with shaved heads, an appreciation for sad boys singing, atomic babies, a whole lot of ennui, and how Deadline shaped pop culture as we appreciate it even now.
