So which incarnation is your favorite interpretation (even if the character is not complete true to her first introduction in prog 505):
-   Alan Grant and Carlos Ezquerra

Many characters in the world of Dredd have been around for a long time. We also know that the world of Dredd is moving along time no reboots (thank you for that Tharg) or re-imaging of the world (thank you again for that Tharg).

So, what are we voting about this round it is quite simple we are revering to a certain PSI Judge's age Cassandra Anderson? The question do you believe that the way she is "illustrated" should reflect her age or not:
-   Yes, let's see her as a mature woman
-   No, let the artist/writer have free reign
-   Do not care, I just read the stories

Over the years the prog has seen its fair share of villains. Some of them where mean, vicious, plainly bad, or just psychopathic. Well, this is not that kind of vote it is rather whom of these villains are the "coolest" of them all:

-   Judge Death
-   PJ Maybe
-   The Mekon

Now tell us what is your favorite logo to grace the pages or rather cover of the prog.

There is always a story or two which you would like to be collected but so far it has not happened. I have a few that I would like Rebellion/Treasury/2000AD to publish. My top ones would be:

- New Statesmen
- Jonny Red - I know some of it has been collected by Titan but I would like it to get the same treatment that this will get as the Treasury's Charley's War got
- Friday
- Junker

Like him or not he is certainly one of the greatest writers to grace to prog, head strong in his ideas and full off confidence in his creations, we are talking about Pat Mills. Now that he decided to leave the prog and dedicate his time on his own ventures what story do you want him if it is up to you to write one more time:
-   Defoe
-   Flesh
-   Slaine (we go some sort of an ending)
-   Savage
-   ABC Warriors

Raise your hand who does not like some Dinosaur action. Before we had a certain dino movie we were expose to some Flesh action. So here we go who is your favorite dino that grace the pages of the prog (and one guest star from the pages of the Eagle):
-   Old One Eye
-   Satanus
-   Bloodfang
-   Gorehead
-   Golgotha

Remember those thrills that ended an arc, but we have not seen or heard of them for a while. Which of those rascals that vanished without a hint or trace would you like to grace the pages of the prog again:
-   Brass Sun
-   Hunted
-   Kingdom
-   Grey Area
-   Helium
-   Skip Tracer
-   The Alienist

Now this is one of those fantasy votes because hell really must freeze over before this will remote ever happen. So here is the question:

Must John Wagner (and only him) be allowed to kill of Dredd:
-   Do it John!!!!!
-   Never, ever, do not touch!!!!!

Since the introduction of Dredd to the world in prog 2 he has never been re-launched or re-image in the prog. We still have the same Dredd as always.

One thing that I am sure you also noticed reading Dredd that each artists have his or her own style portraying the man (especially his gear) even writers building their own little verse within the bigger verse. Both writers and artists have a lot of freedom (you can also read this great interview with Boo Cook related to this topic: https://comicscene.org/2022/02/12/i-love-comics-interview-boo-cook/)

Now the question: do you like the idea of both artists and writers given more freedom or do you want a showrunner that keeps 100% with a particular way Dredd looks and no writer can deviate from the grounded path? So, your options:
-   Yes, let them be free let's have our artist and writers express themselves
-   No, by the book people let's keep it tight and to the letter
-   Whatever!!!, I just want to enjoy Dredd and the Dredd-verse

I can remember those days when you opened your favorite comic and those dreaded word appear especially if your comic was on the receiving end of things. So, this is quite simple which merger will you reckon was the best of the best (ends well all is well). Here are your merger buddies:

-   2000 AD and Tornado
-   Eagle and Scream
-   Eagle and Tiger
-   Eagle and Battle

Both were slaves in the time of the Romans. Each one was defined by an event the one became inter galactic gladiator the other will became a hunter of souls. It is the ultimate sword battle as we have a showdown between Aquila and Blackhawk. Whom will you choose to be your champion?
•   Blackhawk
•   Aquila

Out of the pages of Battle Picture Library two of the most fondly remember characters were born, one was a fly boy the other fighting in the trenches different world wars the one in the east the other he west. We are talking about Johnny Red and Charley Bourne.  Whom of these two classic characters are your favorite (This is not about which is the best strip).
