The robot rebellion was interesting but clearly not resolved properly so it’s bound to come up again. Craig Russell, Arvell Jones, Keith Pollard, Chic Stone, Sal Buscema, Jeff Aclin, Carmine Infantino, John Romita, Keith Giffen, Johnny Craig, John Romita Jr. These are okay tales but nothing exceptional in terms of introducing someone to Mega City One and its chief enforcer. Rico’s episode is surprisingly frittered away - no build up and none of the repercussions that his death will bring are immediately felt here. The second volume features the very first Dredd epic The Cursed Earth , written by comic legends Pat Mills ( Slaine ) and John Wagner ( A History of Violence ) and featuring the art of Mike McMahon ( ABC Warriors ) and Brian Bolland ( Batman: The Killing Joke ).

It was in this environment that Millar made his first major contribution to Marvel with Ultimate X-Men, as Millar integrated forty years’ worth of X-Men history, characters and lore into a solid two-year run, making the companion title to Ultimate Spider-Man every bit the creative and commercial success.This skinny '70s Dredd is surrounded by other skinny people with Afros and Charlie's Angels' haircuts. It's interesting to see Dredd's character and world as they are first established, but this collection will most likely be of interest only to die-hard fans and completists. For over three decades Judge Dredd has been one of the biggest stars of British comics, dispensing instance justice on the harsh streets of Mega-City One. Written by comic-legends John Wagner (A History of Violence) and Alan Grant (Batman) and featuring art by world-renown artists Colin MacNeil (Judge Dredd: America), Carlos Ezquerra (Preacher) and Cam Kennedy (Star Wars) amongst others, this is another essential volume in the Case Files collection!

The notion that widespread wealth spells disaster is a bit silly, though (unless you happen to be a member of the Tea Party), and the fictional world of Judge Dredd generally feels rather half-baked at this early stage. He has written twenty-five novels for the Black Library, including the acclaimed Gaunt's Ghosts series and the Eisenhorn and Ravenor trilogies, and with Mike Lee, the Darkblade cycle. To ensure peace and uphold the law of Mega-City One, the justice department uses judges: An officer of the law who acts as police, judge, jury and executioner if necessary.Where this short strip terrified me years ago, this time around it made my cry and laugh within a few panels. Judge Dredd, Mega-City One’s toughest law enforcer, is back on the streets in this collection of explosive cases. Volume one covers issue 2 (he didn’t appear in number 1) from March 1977 through to issue 60 from April 1978 and as an early reader of the Thrill Zone (the first issue I remember is 18, from June ’77), this was a real blast from the past.

I had not ever read any stories that took place on the moon so this was all interesting for me and I have to say I enjoyed everything in this collection along with all the cheesiness involved in the early days of Dredd.

A fantastic idea from 2000AD, the Complete Case Files reprint every Dredd story that appeared in the comic. To this end, he taps into the energy flowing through the planet and uses it to reanimate the corpse of everyone who’s ever died. Great fun, well written and superbly illustrated, well presented and thoroughly iconic, I very highly recommend this.Now in this sixth volume of his collected adventures you’ll meet some of Dredd’s most bizarre adversaries yet! Don Cameron, Bill Finger, Edmond Hamilton, France Herron, Neil Gaiman, Jim Starlin, Marv Wolfman, George Perez, Grant Morrison, Mike W. Although Mike McMahon may not have illustrated as many strips as other 2000 AD creators, his importance to the comic cannot be overstated. Stan Lee, Steve Ditko, Various, Roy Thomas, Gerry Conway, Len Wein, Archie Goodwin, Bill Mantlo, Marv Wolfman, Jim Starlin, Dennis O'Neil, David Michelinie, Roger Stern, Jim Shooter, Mark Gruenwald, Michael Fleisher, Mike W. In simple terms, the first volume of Judge Dredd’s cases are more the Sylvester Stallone version than the Karl Urban one.
