Description
Marlon 'Chopper' Shakespeare has come a long way from being a wall-scrawling juve in Mega-City One. Having mastered the art of Sky Surfing, Chopper became a hero of the people by winning Supersurf 7 and escaping the Judges to compete in Supersurf 10. But a narrow defeat to Jug McKenzie and a close encounter with Judge Dredd sent Chopper out into the Radback. Now he's back and intent on re-claiming his title and keeping his freedom. Collected together for the first time, here are the further adventures of mega-City One's greatest rebel, brought to you by Chopper co-creator John Wagner (Judge Dredd, A History of Violence), Garth Ennis (Preacher, The Boys) and with luscious artwork from Colin MacNeil (America) and John Higgins (Watchmen) amongst others.
About the Author
John Wagner has been scripting for 2000 AD for more years than he cares to remember. His creations include Judge Dredd, Strontium Dog, Ace Trucking, Al's Baby, Button Man and Mean Machine. Outside of 2000 AD his credits include Star Wars, Lobo, The Punisher and the critically acclaimed A History of Violence. Garth Ennis first came to prominence as writer on Troubled Souls, the Northern Ireland-set series he created with John McCrea for Crisis. As well as scripting its sequel, For a Few Troubles More and True Faith (created with Warren Pleece), he was also a regular contributor to 2000 AD and the Judge Dredd Megazine, writing Judge Dredd, Strontium Dogs, The Corps, Time Flies, Chopper, and Sleeze 'n' Ryder. Outside of the Galaxy's Greatest Comic, his well-received run on Hellblazer was followed by Preacher, the hugely successful DC Vertigo series he created with Steve Dillon, as well as titles such as Hitman, Goddess, Bloody Mary, and a lengthy run on The Punisher. He is currently writing The Boys and war series Battlefields, both of which are published by Dynamite Entertainment.Since joining 2000 AD in 1986 Colin MacNeil has worked on many strips, including Chopper - Song of the Surfer and Strontium Dog - The Final Solution. He went on to collaborate with John Wagner on the award-winning Judge Dredd - America for the Judge Dredd Megazine. He has also worked on Shimura, Maelstrom and Fiends of the Eastern Front - Stalingrad. Recently he has worked on Judge Dredd -Total War, Cadet, Mutants in Mega-City One and Emphatically Evil: The Life and Crimes of P J Maybe. He also provided the atmospheric artwork on Bloodquest for Games Workshop. Away from comics, Colin enjoys creating large abstract paintings. He says its art therapy! John Higgins is a multi-talented 2000 AD artist and writer; as well as scripting a Future Shock and Judge Dredd, Higgins has illustrated Chopper, Freaks, One-Offs, Tharg the Mighty and Time Twisters. His work outside the Galaxy's Greatest Comic is also highly respected, and he has contributed to some of the most important series of recent times, including working as a colourist on the modern superhero classic Watchmen, and on Vertigo's Animal Man, Hellblazer and Pride and Joy. John McCrea's striking art has graced various 2000 AD strips including Judge Dredd, Sinister Dexter and Chopper. Outside of the Galaxy's Greatest he is well known for his work on Hitman with celebrated writer Garth Ennis. Patrick Goddard's clean art style has graced many strips in the Galaxy's Greatest Comic. Co-creator of the Megazine series Wardog, he has penciled Judge Dredd, Mean Machine, Middenface McNulty, Sinister Dexter and took over the art duties on Savage from Charlie Adlard.
