Cover: Good Stuff.
Dredd: Yuk, supernatural villain. Decent action-y opener, but there doesn't seem to be a lot to this guy other than "he can get shot a lot". Hopefully Wagner will flesh out a worthwhile story. OK/Good Stuff.
Greysuit: Less Mills, more Thrills. If you cut out the boxes this would be a LOT more enjoyable, plus we get typical Mills pantomime villains and we're expected to remember gorilla guy even though this hasn't been in the prog for 15+ months. Not looking forward to the exposition episodes. OK Stuff.
Marauder: Similar to Greysuit, but I find Robbie-isms a lot less offensive than Mill-isms. I never find wrong-un Judges convincing as there's supposed to be a whole system devoted to stopping them. Speaking of which, shouldn't the lead not be in MC-1 at all. Elson does a superb job of carrying the script, and I do enjoy this in spite of my misgivings. Good Stuff.
Red Seas: Wow, they fight a bit then all get knocked out in two panels. *coughfiller* OK Stuff.
Stront: He doesn't want to kill norms then he does then he doesn't when cute blonde girl blows herself up. Still a good set-up. Good Stuff.
