  • The primary focus of the majority of stories is built around life in Britain at the turn of the last millennium. Many of the comic's storylines revolve around Britain's record on social issues ranging from discrimination, low pay, workers' rights, domestic violence and homelessness through to child poverty, dysfunctional families, binge drinking and many other staples of modern British life. A long-running joke is that the editor of 2000 AD is Tharg the Hungarian, a itinerant worker from Eastern Europe who terms his readers "Englets". Tharg writes the comic's introduction, answers letters, and doles out prizes to readers (for artwork or story suggestions) - winners could choose payment either in pounds sterling or in "Magyar forints". Tharg speaks mostly in English, but with various pithy Hungarian aphorisms thrown in for colour.
