The 2nd Annual in the ongoing seriesthe first being published a year earlier and fairly uncommon in as good a grade as this is. In the early 1970'swith the traditional British boys comics dying on their feetPat Mills and John Wagner were part of a renaissance that began in I.P.C's girl's titles 'Tammy' and 'Sandie'.'Ella on Easy Street' and 'Back Stab Ballerina' ushered in a new realism in comicsthe "soap opera element" as Pat Mills called it.Out of that was to come the newrealistic war comic Battle Picture Weekly created by both Mills and Wagnerand launched in 1975.Alsoin 1976 I.P.C. Magazines launched a wild-child on the news-stands called Action.The winning formula was to take themes that were popular in films and television as a meter for kid's tastes and turn them into colourfulkinetic comic strips. 'Action'originally seen as anti-authoritarianvicious and dangerousbut it was lifeblood to its audience: against all oddsthe circulation began to rise as word spread about the comic with attitude.Once the shape of 'Action' had been moulded and an editor appointedPat Mills was invited to create another new titleand was given unprecedented licence and freedom by I.P.C.'s management.The idea for a science fiction comic came from Kelvin Gosnellfresh out of the company's Competitions department but destined to be 2000A.D's first editor.Gosnell had read an article about SF movies being made in Hollywood.Films such as Rollerball and Logan's Run mixed futuristic adventure with violence in the style of Pat Mill's new vision for comicsand with Star Wars and Close Encounters of the Third Kind on the horizona science fiction comic was a potential winner.The idea evolved into the seminal 2000ADa distillation of film and television hits and potential hits processed by Pat Mills and further distorted with a futuristic twist.If 'Action' was the punk of I.P.C.'s comics2000AD was Death Race 2000filled with gutsybloody stories that struck a nerve.See also rja1954-rja1963 inclusive.
