Out Today: 2000 AD #2330
So I am insanely proud to announce my professional comics debut today in 2000 AD, where I wrote a Future Shock entitled "Look At Your Hands." I'm joined on art by the astonishingly good Laura Helsby, and we're lettered by no less than two-time Eisner nominee Jim Campbell, so I am absolutely hyped as all hell about this even before you get into my obviously and frankly maniacal delight at the fact that my debut is a fuckin' Future Shock.
I would love to share this one with you all, but obviously I cannot. For that you've gotta toss two bucks in the direction of Tharg the Mighty himself over at the 2000 AD web store, or, better yet, get down to your local comic shop or newsagent and get an actual copy. But here, at least, is the first page.
I'll be back later today with a writers notes on it for the $25+ crowd.
Thanks for all of your support. Without you, I wouldn't have the time or freedom to pursue things like this. I cannot wait to share more with you.

Amazing! And for this reason, I found myself in a branch of WH Smith today, buying a copy of 2000AD, for the first time since maybe 1989! Thank you for an unexpected emotional journey.
Just ordered a hard copy from the store. Well done on breaking in!
So many congratulations for your professional comics debut! I can't wait to read it, and to seeing you get hired back for a series. This will be the first comic book floppy I pick up release week since my friend from high school was regularly drawing issues for Marvel.
Congratulations! Curious, I remember ages ago I considered pitching short trips to 2000AD, but their policy was that you had to send a physical paper submission which meant that it would be really expensive to send each pitch internationally every time. Have they come around to digital submissions, or did you pay the piper?
I did not, but I also didn't go through the open submissions route.
Hell yeah congrats! I'm so proud you've gotten through the door in professional comics.
need to get onto this one: https://shop.2000ad.com/creators/elizabeth-sandifer
you mean of course the print edition for £3.50 plus too much postage, I'm sure ;-) I expect to pop down to Fags & Mags tomorrow for mine
Holy cow, congrats El!!
This is amazing! Guess I'm buying my first prog in years today then!
Hey, congrats! Have bought and look forward to reading.
