Pat Mills Signing At Orbital Comics Tomorrow Evening

Tomorrow, September 29th, as 2000AD and Action creator Pat Mills will be appearing at Orbital Comics in London by to promote his new book Be Pure! Be Vigilant! Behave!,  from 5-7pm followed by an after-hours talk, moderated by Jason Atomic.

As 2000AD and Judge Dredd celebrates its 40th birthday, Pat has written a definitive history of the Galaxy's Greatest Comic, and the turbulent, extraordinary and exciting events that shaped it.

Be Pure! Be Vigilant! Behave! is the infamous slogan of Torquemada, the comic's favourite villain. It once appeared on the Berlin Wall, and symbolizes the subversive nature of 2000AD that changed many readers' lives and influenced generations of film directors, actors, rock bands, novelists and even school headmasters.

Everything you've always wanted to know about Judge Dredd, Slaine, Nemesis, ABC Warriors, Flesh, Bill Savage and more, is in this book. Plus the writers and artists who created them and the real-life people and events they drew on for inspiration. The scandals, the back-stabbing and the shocking story that was regarded as "too sensitive" to ever see the light of day is finally told.

I wonder if a few of them might make them into Bleeding Cool soon…
