2000 AD's Diceman was a short-lived monthly magazine published by IPC in 1986. A spin-off of 2000 AD, it combined comics with role-playing games. Diceman was conceived by Pat Mills, who had previously created a fifteen-part role-playing game-cum-comic titled "Slaine", which ran in 2000 AD. Simon Geller served as editor, while Kevin O'Neill designed the magazine. Other contributors include Hunt Emerson. Diceman lasted for only five issues. The following year, Mills and Emerson collaborated on Titan Books' You are Maggie Thatcher: A Dole-Playing Game.
