Mazeworld is a fantasy story created by Alan Grant and Arthur Ranson for British science fiction comic anthology 2000 AD.

[4] Ranson remembers that initially Alan just wrote an opening chapter with a man being hanged and finding himself in a world of mazes.

[1]In 1996, then-2000 AD editor David Bishop, partly to challenge the status-quo, and partly in the wake of the "definite anti-Dredd feeling within Fleetway [then publishers of 2000 AD]" after the Judge Dredd film decided to replace fictional editor Tharg the Mighty with 'The Man in Black from Vector 13', and move Dredd himself from his "familiar position as the first strip in each prog.

[4] Because it is creator-owned, like some other strips to appear in 2000 AD such as Button Man, Grant recalls that the duo "had hopes of selling it for syndication, or perhaps as a computer game.

"[1] It was licensed in "the US [by] Caliber Comics, which promptly printed the books in black and white, lost much of Arthur's artwork, failed to pay us a bean, then went bust.
