General / Sideshow Vote: Just an average day in the city

« on: 13 April, 2022, 04:35:02 AM »

When Day of Chaos super mega-epic ended it was the epic with the greatest number of episodes (48). It was an epic that left the world of Dredd in a devastated state. Mega City 1 was literally destroyed with almost the whole population wiped-out. Now we are years later, and we should still see the lasting effects of the chaos. So here we are do you believe:
-   The epic has a lasting effect on the city, the stories still reflect this
-   The epic had a few stories afterwards, but we do not see the effect anymore
-   The epic did not really change the landscape of what we are seeing
-   The epic should never had seen the light of day
-   The epic should have left nothing standing not enough destruction
-   Huh, never heard about this!!!!
-   Any alternative views please tell us

General / Sideshow Vote: I swapped a tea for coffee

« on: 11 April, 2022, 04:16:55 AM »

We all remember those times when the prog really went through a big dip in quality as it was trying to find the next Wagner or Mills (the 90s). We are talking about the new breed of writers to bring their new style to the prog. Some off the regular readers called it the Dark Ages of the Prog as a lot of readers left in this period. The next generation of writers left the prog and made huge differences in the States. Now whom of the wave of new writers do you believe was the most successful outside the prog and which was most successful within the prog? So, you have two votes one for best for the prog and one for the best outside the prog. Here are your candidates:
-   Garth Ennis
-   Mark Millar
-   Grant Morrison

-   I was there at the beginning and here I am still reading
-   I was there at the beginning and lapsed but I am back
-   I started in the 70s and I am still reading
-   I started in the 70s and lapsed but I am back
-   I started in the 80s and I am still reading
-   I started in the 80s and lapsed but I am back
-   I started in the 90s and I am still reading
-   I started in the 90s and lapsed but I am back
-   I started in the rebellion years, and I am still reading
-   I started in the rebellion years, and lapsed but I am back
-   Well to be honest I read the prog on and off
-   Well, I only get the collections
-   Never heard of the prog but it sounds cool

For the fun factor that is if the grey matter still can play along what was your first prog? and if you lapsed which was your returning prog?
