Trucker

Born in the pages of 2000 AD's landmark 500th issue in 1986, Trucker is a product of the Copper Age British comics scene at its most inventive — conjured by the legendary Pat Mills and artist Glenn Fabry at a moment when 2000 AD was firing on all cylinders. Over a sixteen-year run spanning the flagship anthology, the Judge Dredd Megazine, and The Best of 2000 AD Monthly, this character carved out a modest but genuine corner of the IPC universe, sharing pages with the likes of Thrax, Kano, and Flytrap. Three of those appearances carry key-issue weight for collectors, which is no small thing for a character with a relatively tight catalog footprint. If you love the gritty, irreverent energy that made 2000 AD a revolution in British comics, Trucker is exactly the kind of deep-cut discovery worth tracking down.
