Spooky Dredd

[Matt Timson]

Aha!  Ta.

[ThryllSeekyr]

Any more of those DiceMan gsames in computer foramt or is it just the one.

As far as spooky Dredds go, Riders on the Storm (prog 473) is one of my all-time favourites - great atmosphere, McCarthy on art duties and all wrapped up in a stunning cover.

More like this please, Green Bonce!http://www.2000adonline.com/covers/2000ad/hires/473.jpg">

For spooky non-Dredd thrills, Torquemada-as-Frankenstein in Nemesis (yes Kitty, lawks) and Malak Brood in Strontium Dog stand out, but my brain's fuzzy from too many late nights this week..

Spooky Dredd: "The Fear that Made Milwaukee Famous"

[Byron Virgo]

That was a colour McMahon from one of the annuals, right? Does McMahon's The Vampire Effect count? I know it's an alien, but it scared the bejesus out of me as a kid.

Riders of the Storm - definitely something of a classic that. Does anyone else remember the McCarthy story about the serial killer that appeared prog 500?

"Does anyone else remember the McCarthy story about the serial killer that appeared prog 500?"

Is that the one set under the Black Atlantic? 2 or 3 parter? If so thats one of my faves.

Whats the Dredd where the woman sends bills to dead people and in the end they come and get her?

[ming]

No, Atlantis was a four-parter (progs 485-488, with great autopsy scenes!).  The prog 500-501 story was The Witness but I don't remember it.  Anyone want to remind me? My Progs are elsewhere, so a re-read will have to wait for the Case Files!

Another McCarthy Dredd: Blood Donor (prog 519) - what was that about?

[Byron Virgo]

It was about a guy being forced to give blood, but being somewhat less than keen - it was quite like that Dredd annual story by McMahon about the guy having to forcibly give up his heart.

The Witness was about tracking down a killer in a public baths, which had a rather neat twist as to who the killer was (or at least I thought so at the time).

You used to be able to get a whole bunch of McCarthy Dredd's in one of the old Titan Chronicles of... (I think it was somewhere around 15, if memory serves).

>Any more of those DiceMan gsames in computer foramt or is it just the one.

I only asked for permission to do the Dredd one and even that was done by someone else for me.

[ming]

Yup a fine memory you have there, Byron - Riders on the Storm, Atlantis and The Witness: Chronicles 16.  

Looking forward to reading all those again!  And Oz!  Can we have McCarthy back, please, even for a one-off?

That McMahon one was Compulsory Purchase.

[I, Cosh]

Wow, can we get Dave McKean to do some more covers? That's well good.

[ThryllSeekyr]

oh, It is rather hard to follow the origianl version unless you are taking notice of the page number references.

[joepineapples3000a]

the fact is that you just cant get a scary comic, they just don't exist! I suppose if any comic classifies as "scary" it has to be develin waugh swimming in blood

[Byron Virgo]

Hmmm...so comics aren't scary, but Devlin Waugh is? At least be consistant in your trolling, man!

Wasn't there a sequel to Cry of the Werewolf drawn by Carl Critchlow? Or was that just a horrible dream...?
