Last week had a lovely bit of face changing technology spread throughout the episode and what a kicker at the end

On sale this weekend you say, how fabulous and two excellent covers to boot!

Just one thing, could you obscure the logos on the next issues

Well done everyone, some really great images from the past on display this month!

[Year One Omnibus]

I was just looking at the Rebellion Catalogue to see when the Year One Omnibus was coming out and I stumbled upon this

Michael Carroll is one of the current generation of celebrated Dredd comics writers, he has also written a Judge Rico novella.
This book will be eagerly awaited by Dredd's substantial fan base.

Now I'm even more excited, as we've seen little glimpses of the way Rico is behaving in these novellas already!

Just wondering if these will come out the way the previous tales have, in digital with a paper omnibus afterwards!

Here are a couple pf pics of the items from Facebook, seeing as I was credited

Ahem! And what Sketch Cover is this then Mr Goaty?

Didn't you get yours then?

If she knows someone with the movie helmet, then try and get him to wear it and say in his Dredd voice, "Who wants to see a Dredd sequel?"

Come on, it's been out two days now, there's really no excuse

Just to clarify, it was Joe who witnessed Tarjay commit suicide. It's a good job he was allowed free reign to manage this!
All part of the story

Another one has arrived back to the Cellar today. Rough idea for this one was that Wolverine has impaled Death but Death's hand has gone through Wolverine and is holding his heart

It's okay the force in which Dredd impales the alien, is helping force the acid away from his body. That's Justice Department training for you

That's shit and what a tough year ahead! Hope his spirits are kept high with a positive attitude and the docs do their stuff.

[I'm not going to place spoilers over it all, as I still believe hardly any of you are reading this]

This attempts to tie up a few threads for the Dark Judges story in the next issue, so everything builds to the final panel reveal!

Here we go!
Dredd is being beaten up by Cal's henchmen, while trying to get Cal to send Judges to help Anderson but Cal ain't having any of it. Finally Dredd decides the only way to get Anderson the help is to perjure himself and after revealing his made up story to Cal we turn the page and Joe is up in front of the Council with Cal retelling the facts. The sentence is handed down, GUILTY and off to Titan for LIFE!

A few days after this, a psychic blast overwhelms PSI Div [spoiler]DREDD IS DEATH[/spoiler] rings around everyones minds We then have a few PSI Judges Karyn and Omar charge into where Anderson is laid out, in the morgue They jabber on about the crime scene being compromised!

Next up we see a SJS Judge reading some banned material, when Tarjay D-Jumps in and blows his head off. Swiftly we move on to Dredd being told by Cal that he's not off to Titan just yet and Cal informs the SJS that he is to be taken to the BYBEE ROOM for some special treatment. We see Joe stripped naked and a strange cloak placed on him and then he begins to scream. The cloak is The Veil of Truth and it may be a living organism which amps up the pain centres of its host. No-one has made it past a minute but Dredd manages TEN.

PSI Div (in the form of Omar and Karyn) meet Cal and his Inertial (blocks Cal from being read by the psi's) and have a talk about Dredd and demand to see him. He's cleaned up by two SJS, one of who's a pervert

Omar and Karyn talk to Dredd and they explain a few things and then set a plan in motion to catch Tarjay but he manages to D-Jump into the morgue and kill himself in front of the SJS and a Street Judge (who could be Dredd or not, I have no idea).

Now we reach the end game, as Dredd is off to Titan wearing a strange hood over the top of his head but he still has his complete uniform on, minus the chain! Cal is in the morgue walking down the aisle with the 13 dead Judges either side of him and he announces to a lacky, 'but you and the rest of Mega-City One can rest assured - The Killing Is Done.' The morgue attendant then turns the light switch off and as he does some black gunk travels down some clear tubes and then is pumped into the dead Judges chests. I have no idea how this happened as they were encased in clear incubator style covers and nothing was on the top to suggest that this could happen!

Anyway, at the same time all this is happening Joe is being placed in Cryo-Stasis for his trip. We turn the page and DEATH is revealed with a speach bubble saying 'OH YESSSSSSS!'


There we are! Overall it seems to have illogical parts placed in just to keep the reader entertained, while adding new stuff for God knows what reason! Still, it's not for us!

ROLL ON NEXT ISSUE

My work here is done
