Bagman

Bagman made his debut in the pages of 2000 AD #228 in 1981, born from the Bronze Age imagination of writer T. B. Grover and the legendary artist Brian Bolland — a pedigree that alone makes any appearance worth seeking out. Turning up in the same issues as icons like Judge Dredd and Rogue Trooper, this character has kept genuinely remarkable company across the sprawling, irreverent universe of British comics. With appearances stretching across an extraordinary span from 1981 all the way to 2026, Bagman is a quietly persistent figure in the 2000 AD galaxy — not the loudest name on the roster, but one with deep roots and a Bolland-illustrated debut that any serious collector will want on their shelf.
