From the means streets to far space, writer Michael Carroll has his feet in different 2000 AD worlds with his current work – with one series returning after a long hiatus and another drawing to a close.

The new series of Dreadnoughts begins in Judge Dredd Megazine #468 this month. While the new Justice Department is still in its early years, many citizens – and more than a few cops – are unhappy as the Judges’ influence spreads wider, so Carroll talks about both the prescience of Judge Dredd and unreliable narrators...

And over in 2000 AD, the fifth series of Proteus Vex, 'Devious', is set to close the curtain on the super spy space opera, and Carroll discusses the influences on the series, world-building and preparing to stick the landing on the long-running series.
