Let's cut to the chase. This blog has a very simple brief: to review IDW's Judge Dredd series. There's not a lot else to say, really; I've been reading comics (mainly 2000AD) for thirty years. I'm very much a fan of Dredd as written by John Wagner, but I thought I should give this stab at the American market a chance. This isn’t the first time Judge Dredd’s been published in the States, of course. There was an 18-issue DC comics run to coincide with the Stallone film, and IDW’s run came in to coincide with the Karl Urban film.
I'm late. A year and a half late coming to this series, in fact, and really that’s just because of Judge Death. Just like the Daleks: if it terrified me as a kid, I have to have a look. When I found out that he and the rest of the fearsome foursome were coming, along with another nine dark judges in tow, well, mission accomplished. Interest piqued.
But first, let's see the rest of the series. See how well it builds up to the event.
