Here’s Johnny enters the surreal world of renowned graphic artist Johnny Hicklenton, who is battling against Multiple Sclerosis. Living in an increasing state of immobility and frustration, Johnny escapes the confines of his frontroom through his artwork.

Launched at the Science Museum on January 30th 2008, and premiering at South by South West film festival in March 2008, Here's Johnny went on to win two prestigious Grierson Awards in November 2008. Winning both the 'Best Arts Documentary' and 'Best Newcomer' awards, Here's Johnny is the first film ever to win two awards in the Griersons' 36 year history.

Here's Johnny had its first UK broadcast on More4 on February 17th 2009 as part of their 'True Stories' strand.

The documentary was filmed over several years (2002-2008) and one of the aspects I found particularly insightful was when Johnny in 2007 looked back at things he had said at earlier times.

Extras include a commentary, unseen footage and artwork

Termight Replicas supplied Animal Monday with a Judge Dredd uniform for the SXSW premier. Footage of the film's editor/director, Adam Lavis, wearing it is included in the DVD extras.

The DVD has been signed by Johnny Hicklenton, is region-free and costs £9.95. It is unrated but contains strong language.

Johnny died on Friday, 19th March 2010 at Dignitas in Switzerland. For more details, please visit the 2000AD Online message board
