Judge Dredd Questions

>>91030172
>2. Did Ralph Bryce (the kid who impersonated a Judge and then got expelled from the Academy for sneaking out to fight crime) ever show up again? Did Judge Dredd really, as Walter the Wobat said, visit him every week for father/son shit? Or did Walter make that shit up to make Dredd look like less of a bastard?
I am not sure if ought to answer this one for you anon. Yes. He became a serial judge impersonator and was later shot dead by Dredd after going on a killing spree. Dredd stopped visiting him as a kid once he became difficult.

1. Wagner basically ignored the Judge Cal storyline for the "Democracy" saga. For reasons you mentioned, as far as it contradicting the plot he wanted to tell.

2. No clue if the Ralph/Dredd playdates actually happened. Bit I do recall Dredd ended up having to kill Ralph in the end, because Ralph refused to stop cosplaying as a Judge.

3. I think that was one of the dropped plotlines when Dredd started being retooled as a super series strip.

4. No. But they did use her ongoing strip to bring Orlock back and start up the running storyline of Mega City 1 being attacked by East Meg survivors.

5. No clue

6. IIRC they brought back the Child Judge one last time, with the whole prediction ultimately playing out that they had to make the Child Judge Chief Judge or else he would kill everyone. A sort of catch 22 scenario where everyone was fucked unless you killed the Child Judge.

bump in the hope of Dredd discussion

I'm really enjoying the new Deadworld thing and I want to talk about it.

Can someone storytime the Orlock/Anderson stuff?

1) Nope. Remember that almost ten years passed between Day and the Democracy storylines. And 'sides, even without Cal the judges are still incredibly abusive and oppressive.

3) Nope. Far as we know they're still rotting in an iso-cube, if they haven't died already. That said, the Hunters' Club did make a comeback in the early 90s when Ennis took over the strip.

4) Nyet.

5) Nah.

6) Yes! "In The Year 2120". Wanna read it?

For the record, this story happened after Destiny's Angels and City of the Damned, where Dredd killed the Judge Child twice. So in theory, by now, that particular timeline had been erased.

I'd rather you post the one where Orlock/Anderson mind meld. Childhood End IIRC; I remember reading about that one from a Dredd blog where supposedly it revealed Orlock's origin and how he and Anderson turn out to have a lot in common with regards how their respective Judge Caste seduced them into becoming Judges via playing on their weaknesses and need for love/abusive childhoods.

Before you ask, no, the scar never appeared again far as I can remember.
Anyway, I'm gonna go get some soup and come back in a sec with Judge Anderson: Childhood's End! Or "How I Learned To Stop Caring And Get The Fuck Out".

Thanks Judge Anon

>>91030172
Wasn't Anderson still encased in a boing-bubble with Judge Death's spirit-essence inside her during the events of The Apocalypse War? Or was she (and Death) released before this, it's a long-arse time since I've read all that stuff so I'm probably wrong.

Alright, water's boiling and soup's cooking so let's get this show on the road! Written by Alan Grant and drawn by Kev Walker, this is "Childhood's End"!

>>91035097
The latter. Judge Death Lives happened riiight before Apocalypse War. Lucky for Dredd and Mega-City One.

>>91033772
What year is this comic from? It's post-2000, right? I've never seen this Bisley-influenced linework style from Jason Brashill before, I've just seen his painted, Mode 2-influenced stuff before. In fact Brashill was a graffiti artist himself, for a time.

Bit of background: Anderson's had a rough couple of years. Her best friend, Empath Corey, committed suicide. Her resolve has been shaken by a number of cases. And she sorta kinda found religion in the mind of a preacher who believed, with the kind of blissfully pure belief that's exceedingly rare in Mega-City One, that God is real and Jesus is his son. So she's going through a bit of a rough patch at the moment.

As for Orlok, whose presence in this story is supposed to be a mystery, he's also had a bit of a rough patch after his last scheme to destroy Mega-City One from within went tits up thanks to Anderson, and the government in exile of East-Meg One was forced to declare him an enemy of the state rather than risk Big Meg retaliation.

So in a nutshell, this is the story of two people going through some bad times who go on a holiday to Mars. And then stomm gets real.

>5. Was the young psychic introduced in the Cursed Earth story, who saves Dredd from a band of mutants (and who's mother states his father was a Judge "from before the Atomic War") part of the group of mutants Judge Dredd met that turned out to be his relatives, who ultimately led Dredd to fight for mutant rights?

Novar? He was not no, funnily enough i recently met Mills at a signing and i asked if Novar was ever set to or had shown up again. His response was, he had forgotten about him completely.

wait so are these guys the cannon origin for life in the dredd timeline?

>>91035291

Quick question: was one of the things that made Anderson basically having such a shitty time, around this time, her finding out what a shitbag Chief Judge Silver was? As well as her turning against Dredd over what he did to the Democracy movement during the Democracy Now arc?

I know Silver and Anderson were close, so can I assume Anderson naturally freaked the fuck out over what Silver ordered Dredd do?

I don't think Anderson really would have had a cow over Silver breaking the law to fuck over the anti-Judge movement.

Anderson was a huge supporter of Silver, going so far as to go along with Silver ordering her to kill a East Meg psi who was working with Orlock, without a trial....

Curiously enough, Anderson never said much about the whole democracy thing. Grant and Wagner's storylines were very well-divided, so for instance, Dredd never mentioned Anderson beating Satan on his strip. The wall was strong.

I'm confused here; what did the Judges do to her when she was caught reading a banned book that rejected the Judge system?

Is she talking about how no one seemed to punish her for being a non-hard ass/flippant type? Is that Grant basically explaining away why Anderson gets to behave like a human being in terms of showing emotion? IE it's a bribe that the Judges offer telepaths they catch breaking the rules of conduct Judges get to follow, where they can show emotion and empathy so long as they toe the party line?

It could be that she's talking about the time before she was a judge. She got caught reading the book, Justice Dept. realized just how strong of a psi she was, and decided to try and make a judge out of her, much like how Beeny became one. Or it could be that she read it when she was already a judge and a similar thing happened.
In a nutshell, psis are too valuable a resource to dispose of like you would a regular judge, which probably also explains how Corey got to keep her job when she couldn't stop crying every single time they called her in.

Yeah, I bought The Meg religiously but stopped a few issues after the great Wagner/Ranson Anedrson Satan story. That was a great Satan.

What was the name of that artist who did the really flat, almost pop-arty looking stuff? His stuff was really static with flat colours, basically no rendering or mark-making at all, just really bleak expanses of colour...he did a few Anderson stories, I think. Simon something? Anyway his style really fucking irritated me for some reason.

This guy? Steve Sampson. It's a pretty stiff style and it's not really well suited to action at all, but it has its charm.

>>91041043
Spot-fucking-on. Although this looks a lot later than his earlier Meg stuff? I mean Anderson actually has believable features...his (really) early work just looks flat as hell, no form, no volume, this is a vast improvement to his first forays into comics.

It's crazy looking at Brit artist's development, to me. Have you ever read smith/fegredo's New Statesmen from Crisis (which was basically a grim 'n gritty Watchmen riff/rip)? The art is absolutely fucking atrocious. Yet look at Fegredo now, he's one of a minority of genre artists who has an immediately distinguishable style, masterful anatomist, clean storyteller, gorgeous inks no wasted marks...like Sean Phillips, also. To me all that stuff he's done with Brubaker is basically one long comic, the themes and plots rarely differ but looking at his early Devlin Waugh painted stuff in comparison with his b & w art now, he's come a long way...I dunno if Steve Sampson is still working in comics, though. SO MANY post-'90's Toothy artists stopped making comics for the more ludicrous fields of concept art and never went back. Which kind of says to me that their hearts were never into telling stories in the first place, they just wanted to draw pretty pictures. Like Greg Staples, does he still draw comics? I know he does a lot of concept stuff, urgh he was such a slavish Bisley copyist on his Rogue Trooper stuff...fucking horrible.

>>91033878
One of my favorite things is how so many of the various non-street Judges have uniforms that are basically just "normal Judge uniform with something written on the shoulderpad." Bonus points go to the Med Squad and their ever-changing white and blue (or was it green) outfits and the Accounting Division's percentage shoulderpad.

>>91033916
That last panel is totally a Doom reference, isn't it? It's even got the Judgemonster in the lower left facing the camera like the cheeky demon in the Doom art.

Oh yeah, especially in that early 90s era. A lot of those artists were either aping Bisley or trying way too wild stuff. Luckily, the ones who "survived" that era have really polished themselves. Pic relateed. That's Staples.

Shit, Staples IS still drawing comics?! Wow. I remember reading the first Sinister Dexter strip in, I think, a Summer Special or something, with all the Kev O'Neill/Will Elder style grafitti and chicken fat ("Pulp Fiction Addiction!"--although I doubt the artist had even heard of Will Elder at that point), just a straight-up Jules and Vincent rip, the artist wasn't Carl Critchlow but they appeared at almost the same time with the same dodgy Bisley-aping linework...urgh, bad times man, baaad times (though I really liked the Vector 13 strips, for some reason...some of them were spooky as fuck, like the one about the bathysphere and the baby crying...*shiver*...)....

>>91043963
Oh man, Critchlow is another who's grown shitloads since those days. I always thought he was one of the more competent Bisley clones, but nowadays he's really come into his own with a style that's got some gorgeous McMahon-style blockiness combined with some excelent texturing and action. Easily one of my favorite of the current bunch of Dredd artists.
And yeah, Staples is still working, though he's super choosy with his projects nowadays, mostly doing covers. That pic is from Dark Justice, a ten episode story about the Dark Judges IN SPAAACE written by Wagner a couple of years ago. Bit light on plot to be honest but it was really just a showcase for Staples' art.

>>91044120
That's actually pretty fucking nice, man

>>91044120
Yeah that Staples pic looks a little too "illustrator-ey" and slick for my tastes...has his storytelling improved? Sometimes I feel the best storytellers were poached during the first round of Brit talent "going to America". Like Bolland had a very naturalistic, illustrator-ey style but damn if he couldn't tell a story and keep the action flowing. I have that sequence of Judge Fear (?though it might be Death?) putting his hand into a victim's chest, told over four or five one-panel tiers, imprinted in my brain forever--the subtle placing of the hand reaching toward the doomed, the unobtrusive shifts in a layout that essentially stays more-or-less the same over the page's progression and the look of sheer terror on the "perps" face as his body is seamlessly pierced by his deathly assailant--it's just a masterclass, in ONE FUCKING PAGE, of storytelling, gesture, expression and design...some people say he is "the British Dave Stevens" but in his comic producing (I'm disregarding all the covers for this argument) prime he was hard to be touched by Stevens or anyone else.

None that I can think of right now. I know I've seen a few, background randos, but the thing is that big full lips are one of the basic ways of telling a female judge that most artists fall into. It's either that, super narrow waists, noticeably bigger tits, smaller frams, or all four at the same time.

>>91054329
Aside from the Dark Judges themselves stuff, the setting itself is fantastic if you're a fan of alternate/mirror dimensions- not just the more obvious "everything is designed after cow skulls instead of eagles", but specifically how everything went to shit once they got the process started, and how WHEN it happened in this dimension was some time before its 'time-equivalent' in Dredd's world, hence the technology that's much closer to our time (internal combusion engine powered, wheeled vehicles and ballistic weaponry everywhere, with only a single hovering H-wagon to be seen so far with exposed rotors and a clunkier appearance than the inexplicably hovering ones we're used to).

>>91055771
I think Fairfax is about the best inverse of Dredd we've ever seen in 2000AD.

>>91055771

As >>91055836 says the scale is appealing and it fills the gap we've always had when it comes to Deadworld. The designs and depiction of the failing Deadworld are gorgeously creepy, and it's really neat to see the evolution of monsters like Fear, Fire and Mortis and the Sisters as they become more and more inhuman. Mortis in particular is much creepier in his halfway state that he is ultimately.

The only 'safe' kills in terms of canon from the character we've seen so far are Psiren, Jess and Fairfax but these hints mean the scale of the thing could be even bigger than the death of worlds, so IMO all bets are off.

He's great- in a position of power equal to or above Dredd in his own world's fucked-up legislature (Chief Judge's personal fixer) and a total asshole, yet manages to be likeable because basically everyone around him including his bike is an even bigger asshole, trying to kill him, or both. Probably helps too that he's a normal human amped up on power and drugs, not a vat-grown clone meant to serve Law from the start.

>>91055800
Yeah, except in his world they're Lawriders, not Lawmasters. Either way the AI seems to be pretty good, yeah, so it isn't EXACTLY our time, but it isn't nearly as far into the future tech-wise as Dredd's world we know and love. Also, they never had a nuclear apocalypse- there was a war, but not a few-hour one with nukes, areas are still referred to as states (and still exist!), the federal government is apparently still a thing in some form (although Gramps could be just using feds interchangeably with judges, the Justice Department is still mentioned), etc- but between the resource shortages (there's a fantastic shot of the oil fracking fields in the latest prog), the riots, and everything else, their world is on the verge of death as it is and that's before some jerk with a portcullis for a fade decides it's time to wipe 'em all out for good.

>>91055836
It's fantastic and is more of a page-turner at the moment than the actual Dredd strips, if you ask me. I want to know more about this world! Who okayed and gave budget to bikes (Byke, singular, as a proper noun, not just slang!) with potty mouths and fascias that look like dead cows? What the hell happened that Death wound up Chief Judge? Also, the thumbnail for that cover looks like it says "Murder One" next to Death's head and that made me think of >>91049012 and that's just ace biscuits.

The biggest actual change in Deadworld canon is that we've shifted from an American-influenced Britain of a certain period to a more modern, but more rural timeline outright set in the States. And to be fair that could just be because we're in a different place in Deadworld's US.

I think in the way Dredd IS the law Fairfax IS the law of Deadworld, at least as it was before Sydney. Corrupt and abusive as hell but still with certain responsibilities of security and to not let shit go too badly wrong. It's also just immensely enjoyable to see him beating on his fellow judges and bantering with the bike.

>>91056112
Well he had lung cancer 7 years ago and had an op to remove one lung. Apart from that, I assumed he is in better health. His hair has grown back.

>>91056044
It follows in what we saw in Boyhood of a Superfiend and Cass' mind-trip back in Half-Life. Deadworld, even before it became deadworld, was very much a dead world of gray walls, sad people and constant dull misery. To me it always felt like a world too beaten down to create anything. It looks like a world whose soul has been ripped out, just full on dead inside. Like Death and co destroying it was a mercy killing.

>>91056035
He is, but he's still plenty old. No chance of any hand-painted stuff right now. To be honest, I kinda wish they'd let him do more black and white strips. I know people sort of expect color from Dredd and Strontium Dog, but if you see his inked commissions over at FB it really looks phenomenal.

It's cool and unsettling seeing the transitions for sure, I wasn't expecting it at all but it's 'neat' watching everyone from the Dark Judges to the street judges to Johnny Law at his no-name Midwestern outpost all get warped and corrupted, doubly so if you've already read Dreams of Deadworld and saw what those who "lived" to the end looked like.

Donald Trump Jr's rant on that will only have made Khan more popular.

I guess it depends on what you define as fetish art, then.

Yeah, much like Ezquerra, he's found a way to make it work. But it only really works in a handful of very particular kinds of stories. Give him a dark, moody, oppressive thriller like Mega-City Confidential, something where he can go hog-wild on the black inks, and it works. But give him something like the end of Every Empire Falls and it's like sucking all the air out of a room.

>>91057166
The new IDW ongoing seems to be more of the same as Mega-City Zero. Which to me was absolutely terrible in every way except art, so I'm not holding much hope. As for A/P/D, it's been delayed to hell and back god knows why and you can tell Layman's never done Dredd before. Plus, it kinda died a little for me when it turned out it wasn't set in the base 2000AD continuity, so no Dredd going "Drokk, not YOU guys again!". Honestly, the only saving grace of IDW's Dredd right now is the art in general.

IDW's Dredd so far has been a textbook case on how creative team > character, and in a more particular case, the importance of having some experience with the character. Every IDW mini has been good to awesome because they have Matt Smith, Al Ewing and Douglas Wolk writing, all people who are very familiar with Dredd.

By the way Judge Anon, who is your favourite illustrator of Hershey. Personally I have a soft spot for Flint's interpretation, hate Carlos' version.

Are these the Complete Case File versions? Hate how digital copies of the early stories are scanned Eagle Reprints with the fucked up colouring.

Of the artists working right now, because fuck if I'm gonna choose between everyone who's ever drawn her, it's gotta be Carl Critchlow. He makes her look equal parts old and grizzled and does the best Chief Judge badge with the awesome giant gold chains and all.
Ezquerra's I like a lot, but he could stand to draw the badge bigger, and he also tends to give her hair a lot of odd layers rather than just making it a perfect helmet.

early casefiles are b&w, bro
I think what you have there are someone's compilations from scans of those eagle comics that are just named "casefiles" by the compiler

Its only the recent shit from like 2010 onwards.

I did it because Case Files isnt even into the 2000's yet and also that I dont want 500 issues of 2000AD on my tablet so I thought id just compile all the dredd stuff together.

I don't have a sweating man reaction image sweaty enough for this.

Who else originally hated Boo Cook's art here but now loves it?
