Judge Dredd: The Mega Collection discussion thread

[COMMANDO FORCES]

Mine arrived and I didn't think that the covers worked well, unlike the previous lot.

So, if you please, which stories are in Target JD? Thanks.

Masked in case people don't want to know in advance: [spoiler]Fists of Stan Lee, Return of Death Fist, The Art of Geomancy, Fight!, Enter Jonni Kiss, Goodnight Kiss, The Brainstem Man, The Man Who Broke the Law, Hitman and Missing[/spoiler]

[abelardsnazz]

Brilliant, thank you.

Anyone get any guesses for issues after 26? I'm going to predict an Armitage volume soon, and possibly another Anderson. And The Day the Law Died.

During the Kraken assessment were the two pages printed in the wrong order 'Tale Of The Dead Man' graphic novel corrected?

They were correct in Case Files 14.

I agree.
I also note with (mild) interest that the back cover of today's Prog features a variation on the cover of 'Target: Judge Dredd', which I prefer.

Certainly agree in relation to the Devlin Waugh volume. Not read any of the stories before and it all looks intriguing with some great art.

The cover is credited to Colin Wilson, is that the fantastic Colin Wilson of Rogue Trooper and JD the mega rackets from back in the day? If it is, his style's certainly changed a bit.

[IndigoPrime]

Same guy, yeah.

I'm most of the way through Target now. Interesting to see how different the Enns a Dredd was from Wagner's, when they're one after another in a volume like this. Still, mostly a good book, despite some rough repro on the Kitson b+w pages.

[IronGraham]

Ennis's Dredd felt a lot like he's trying to do Wagner just not as well he was still much better then Millar and Morrisons (shudders)

[IndigoPrime]

The dog vultures but was especially stupid. Either that or dog vultures are especially stupid. I dunno. But, yeah, Ennis Dredd is often at least quite readable. I'm really not looking forward to entire volumes of this collection being filled with Morrison and Miller dreck. (Here's hoping there aren't too many beyond the dross of Inferno.)

[abelardsnazz]

I think Purgatory/Inferno was their only long-form story so probably just that. I had however forgotten that Grice appeared in Nightmares before I re-read it last week.

Crusade.

[abelardsnazz]

Oh yes, forgot about that. Devlin's the only character who should have emerged from the future Vatican.

[IronGraham]

Don't know if I can read Inferno again Ezquerra is the man but even he couldn't help Inferno that story just made me angry at comic for the first time

[Greg M.]

Ezquerra is the man but even he couldn't help Inferno

What's funny is that although he knows everyone else hates the story, Carlos has said he loved doing Inferno - and ironically, it's some of his best art.
