When did wagner return from the long walk?

[paulvonscott]

I've just borrowed a pile of 2000ADs' from prog 1078 and there are loads of fantastic dredd stories by wagner, can someone tell me which issue he returned?

I don't have my progs to hand, but I think it was sometime in the late 800s-early 900s, wasn't it? I could easily be wrong, though...

Paul, try using the Thrillseeker (It's a neat little tool). Query "Wagner as Writer" against "Judge Dredd as Thrill".
If you then plough through and select thrills "251-300", you will find (surprisingly) he wasn't actually awaty for all that long. I suppose Prog 889 was when he came back. Although he did 8 stories in his "time away" since prog 710.

(If you do the search as indicated, you can see the exact progs)

Hope this helps.

Between Progs 700 ? 1000 there are quite a few chunks of Progs that Ennis & others were doing the writing chores on Dredd.

Ennis? main run on Dredd.
711 ? 720, 727 ? 738, 740 ? 749, 754 ? 761, 766 ? 828, 830 ? 834,  837 ? 839, 940 ? 948.

Millar did.
829, 835 ? 836, 840 ? 841, 854 ? 855, 859 ? 866 (with Morrison) 867 ? 872, 879 ? 880, 928 ? 937 (with Morrison), 968 ? 969, 1029 ? 1030.

Morrison did,
842 ? 853, 965 - 966

Alan Grant did,
762 ? 765,

McKenzie did,
873 ? 878, 881 ? 883, 886 ? 888,

John Smith did,
856 ? 858,

John Higgins did,
884 ? 885,

Dan Abnett did,
895 ? 896, 903, 967,

Chris Standley did,
897 ? 898

Pat Mills did,
950 ? 952, 960 ? 963.

So Wagner wrote the following so work out where his long walks appear:


700 - 710, 716 - 718, 721 - 726, 739, 750 - 753, 889 - 894, 899 - 902, 904 - 927, 938 - 939, 949 - 964, 970 ? 1000
Around the mid 900?s Wagner also had 2 Dredd stories appear each issue at the time the Dredd movie was out.

Wasn't Wagner still writing the main bulk of the Dredd stories for the Meg at this time?
