Continuing from >>53039459 this is the final part of Judge Dredd: The Cursed Earth, one of the earliest 2000AD epics and quite possibly the finest Robert Zelazny fanfiction featuring Ronald McDonald and a satanic T-Rex you’ll read this year.

As always, Dredd’s good inspiration for cyberpunks and grimdark future junkies. This particular story is good for showing how you can include misfits who aren’t sticklers for rules in a group with someone who Is The Law, how to portray what might seem to be a brutal enforcer of a repressive regime in something approaching a heroic manner, and a whole bunch of really peculiar ideas to spice up encounters on long quests.

The story so far... after Mega City Two succumbs to a hideous plague, Mega City One sends Judge Dredd, Lawman of the Future, to bring them a vaccine. Crossing the radioactive wasteland which is all that remains of America outside of the Mega Cities Dredd and his team encountered mutants, monsters, aliens, dinosaurs, robo-vampires and maniacs of all shapes and sizes. Finally, with victory in sight, the broken remains of an apocalyptic android army made a surprise attack. With his vehicle destroyed, Dredd was forced to walk the final sixty miles to Mega City Two across the burning Mojave desert...

perhaps for Mega-City Zero?

piratebay's no good.

And Dredd was as good as his word. Even years later he never forgot the debt he owed to Tweak, nor Tweak to Dredd.

His task complete, Dredd returned to Mega City One just in time to be accused of murder and for the insane Judge Cal to begin his reign of terror. Such is life in Mega City One.

Unfortunately I don't keep up with IDW Dredd, but I do have a fair bit of mainstream Dredd. Give us a bit and I'll see what I can do though.

I do strongly urge you to get the book, if you can. Its very high quality, and its nice to see it in print again after so long.

Still not having a lot of luck with Mega City Zero. Honestly, I don't think you're missing much avoiding the IDW stuff. Generally speaking their Dredd miniseries are worth looking out for - Judge Dredd in MARS ATTACKS!, the original Mega City Two: City of Courts, I think there's a recent alien and predator one as well, but the main month to month title unfortunately gets panned.

The search continues. In a slight change of pace, here's a very recent one that reads to me as if its about a group of PCs.

The Meg is fatter, but it's monthly rather than weekly and tends to have more reprinted material by design. That can be great, because they do actually bundle in mini graphic novel collections of a lot of their rarer stuff or put together compilations of specific writers or artists. 2000AD itself is weekly and pretty much all new material (and there's been some cracking recent stories). but it is an anthology so there are going to be times when you're not feeling anything they're putting out there.

I don't know, really. It depends on what you're looking for, how much space you have. Gun to my head I'd probably go with 2000AD, if only because I'd like to make sure they keep producing new stuff constantly, but I personally prefer to save up for the book collections because I'm a hoarder and they're very nice.


You know how I mentioned Were-tyrannosaurs in the last thread?

That's about all I can do tonight. If anyone has any suggestions for tomorrow I'll see what I can do. I don't have links for these last few stories (yet) but Grudd willing the thread will survive and I'll be able to upload them in the morning.

Had no luck with any of those, I'm afraid >>53051361. I do have the older crossovers with aliens, predators, batman and Lobo, if that's any help.
https://www.mediafire.com/folder/24q8funb7i74a/Crossovers

Incubus in particular is a great Dredd and Aliens and crossover story, which must be a minor miracle.

These are also well worth reading

There's quite a few "Whatever happened to" stories about minor characters from the early days, from the well known ones like Maria, John "Giant" Clay and Otto Sump to ones like the homicidal robot cook who appeared in about six pages of the gigantic Oz story.

There's been quite a few Sov Judges down the years, but I think you're talking about Orlok the Assassin. He was a master of disguise, he kicked off the Apocalypse War by spreading the Block War agent and in many ways he was a mirror to Dredd and Psi Judge Anderson. Perhaps even more so to Cass than Joe. I can certainly dig some of them up. The first appearance is here, in Block War
https://www.mediafire.com/folder/9k7jz38n723yz/Apocalypse_War

That leads onto The Apocalypse War, which if you haven't read it is one of the defining classics of Judge Dredd's entire history.

It is, but at the same time its suitably warped. Looked at another way the Orwellian government enforcers shot a special needs child and then recruited them to inform on their neighbours as a reward. Its all very "awww... wait."

Satanus would return in Blood of Satanus III, a direct followup to this story which is... peculiar. John Hicklenton's alarming art certainly looks like very little else and sets the mood well.

After this cenobite-like creatures turn up and it's weirdly preachy and not as interesting as you'd think it would be. Not a fan. Still, you might like it.

John Hicklenton had previously worked with Pat Mills on Nemesis the Warlock. He was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2000 and, after a hard battle with the disease, ended his life in a Dignitas clinic in 2010.

I love how after the criminals go through a portal to Hell, Dredd just drives right after them without a pause. Because of course he does. He's Judge Motherfucking Dredd, and if he has to literally go to Hell and back to catch a perp, you better believe it he does just that!
