* DarkerAndEdgier: While American comics were still primarily for kids in the 1970s, their British equivalents at the time featured bloody violence and moral ambiguity. ''2000 AD'' was a successor to ''Action'', an earlier comic magazine for kids that caused a stir in the media for its mature content. Most of ''2000 AD'''s futuristic settings were grimdark dystopias, there was a [[EvilVsEvil very thin line between 'good and evil']], and most storylines lacked [[DownerEnding happy endings]]. However, UsefulNotes/TheComicsCode had become much less strict in the 1970s, so 2000 AD was really just taking DarkerAndEdgier [[ExaggeratedTrope to an extreme]].

Explained what a "Prog" was to those unfamiliar with the comic.

The main draw of the first prog was the return of popular [[TheFifties 1950s]] hero ''ComicStrip/DanDare'', though ''MACH 1'' proved rather more popular. However, the true [[BreakoutCharacter breakout series]] was to be ''ComicBook/JudgeDredd'', who debuted in the second prog and has appeared in every strip since. The mag has continued to play host to a wide variety of sci-fi comics, some scrotnig, some not.
