Perfect timing. Just got my record player, amp and speakers up and running the other day! Will order DREDD and DROKK on vinyl and CF21 off amazon this weekend 

DoC is a story unmatched in the destruction it packs. Also a great part of the story Origin and Tour of duty began, one i think Dark Justice will bring some closure to.

Pj Maybe & the dark judges vs Anderson and Dredd !!!

Only thing I don't like is the "eagle" in the skinning room story. Could have done without that.

Ah, but you'd be missing out on so much awesomeness:

Blowout
Language Barrier
Statue of Judgement/The Cal Files/Bad Frendz (which together mark the beginning of the excellent Edgar/PSU/Doomsday arc)
To Thing With Love (which is up there with Bury My Knee... as one of the all-time greatest Dredd one-shots of all time if you ask me)
The Decision
The Three Amigos

Maybe I'll give it a go later on. Bought 5 CFs the other week to get a full 1-16 collection. So I'll probably fill in the blanks between 16,21 and 25 in time.

I'll probably buy each one of 25 and onwards. No queston about it !

"A long and very fine post."
--It looks like the 'lead' stories for each book will be:

21: Wilderlands/Tenth Planet, Casualties of War
22: Crusade/The Exterminator
23: Goodnight Kiss
24: The Three Amigos
25: The Pit
26: Dead Reckoning(?)
27/28?: The Hunting Party

Great post!

So, after Iv bought CF21, I'll need to wait till 25 to avoid any Mark Millar stuff A year and a half away?

[Judge Dredd: v. 22: The Complete Case Files]

Judge Dredd: v. 22: The Complete Case Files
304 pages, 13th March 2014

Anyone who can make out what progs and megs that are the CF-volume? It's written on the title.

Any good stuff?

[Slayground]

A few on the board like the Parker adaptations by Darwyn Cooke so they might like to know that Slayground is due in December.

Thanks! I presume Butcher's moon will come after it and serve as an ending to the Parker series.

Wonder if there'll be another Martini edition, collecting The score, Slayground and Butcher's moon.

This has probably been brought up already.

Steel trailer

And with a 2014 release, wonder if it'll clash with the upcomming Deus Ex Human Revolution film adaption?

I like the first one's Frankenstein's monster feel, so I'm not sure about the Iron man vibes I get from this. Doesn't look that good based on the trailer, but then neither did DREDD

But based on the trailer. I like Joel and Samuel as actors, and I'm sure they'll do fine in this. But the rest of it looks a bit to shiny, fast and cgi.

And also. They talk about him being paralysed, shouldn't they be able to fix that since they're apperantly can put his head inside a robotic body? Like making him an exo skeleton. Which when I think of it could have been more interesting, since he's still Murphy. Making the robocop body like a wheel chair for him. Something he doesn't wan't to be seen as/for, but can't live without.

Well Superman did destroy much of city at end of Man of Steal...?

Ja he certainly did. Wonder if that could be a motivation for either Wayne or Luthor? If they're to go against him that is.

Love Luthor MoS's way of testing Superman's no kill rule towards the end !

Buttonman "Get Harry Ex" (the 3 first books in one)

How have I not heard about this earlier?  A collected edition of the first three Button Man stories - 304 pages of, in my opinion, one of the finest stories ever to appear in the Prog. 

I have the old Progs but always held off getting the individual story TPBs that Rebellion released in the hope that someday they would be collected together.  I am going to be all over this like cheese on toast! 

Yeah, they're really great. Can't wait to get my copy of it. Harry is a monster, but you still feel for the guy.

Yeah but this one with Superman in background with "evil" red eyes...?

Yes, that's how Luthor sees Superman in the book! An alien that we have no control over, something we gave a name just as we give a storm one. And since it's "perfect" Luthor also sees it as the end to our ambitions.

There are some concepts in it that I'd love to see in a film

I hope they use the Luthor that's in Brian Azzarello's book "Luthor: Man of steel". Think that story would be a perfect sequel to a film where Sups battles Batman.

The fifth and last 100Bullets Deluxe book. Out Dec 3rd.

Makes up for the art on the far right in this pic (the 13 that's hit with a bullet)



Also:

Joker & Luthor Absolut ed.. Bigger pages and a new cover could very well make it a buy (even if I already got both in HC.)

Buttonman "Get Harry Ex" (the 3 first books in one)

Dredd Case files 21 (Hopefully it'll collect Wilderlands + Farewell to the chief)

Thought it completely lacks the first one's charm. Best bits where playing the "jet pack music" from the first film in every other scene.

But I think it's actually really good when compared to the book. But quite bad compared to the first one (which I like.)

And I'm happy to say that I didn't need to Watch the rape scene (which in the book reads like rape fan fiction written by a sadistic 7 year in hopes to shock his teacher) Mark Millar so much wanted filmed. Not that the scene that replaced it is much better, but still.

Also. Lindy Booth (playing "Night Bitch") is cute as a button tihi!

Finished it this morning.

Had worries about the diff art styles getting in the way of the story, but I must say it flowed like charm.

A great espionage/mystery book, one that I also think would lend itself well to readers new to Dredd.

But I got a question. [spoiler]Did the kill list make Dirty Frank upset? The one the black ops got instead of the undercover judges one.[/spoiler]
