Mega-City Undercover

It's my wallpaper too.

Gorgeous stuff.

[I, Cosh]

Looks great on the shelf: really breaks up the flat black of all the Dredd books. I was planning on buying this until I discovered how little Lenny Zero there actually is. Only about four episodes and around a quarter of the book.

"I was planning on buying this until"

Until? Reconsider! I wasn't a huge fan of Low Life, but it works much better in long hits, and this really is one of the best Dreddworld books Rebellion's put out, IMO.

[Ignatzmonster]

Have to agree with indigoprime, Cosh. It's an inspired Dredd world book. Lowlife and Lenny Zero truly compliment each other, though I agree it's a damn shame there's not more Zero.

Nixon's not a bad character but William's has yet to bless her with the charisma that Dirty Frank has in truck loads. She's gritty, yeah, but Frank's filthy and filthy's more fun. Still I haven't written her off yet. The first Low Life story shows her potential.

The point being that I alredy have all of the Low Life stories but, had the book been half and half, I wouldn't have minded buying them again.

I suspect they could easily have crammed all the Zero stuff in the one book, but then they'd have a second, later book which has nothing to go in it but Low Life and would render the 'Mega-City Undercover' umbrella title meaningless. They obviously need to keep a little bit of Zero back for each book.

All of Lenny Zero is in MC Undercover. It would have been way to short just to do an LZ hardback. I think the two stories compliment each other quite well.
Glad that people are enjoying the book.

"All of Lenny Zero is in MC Undercover."

That's what I thought. I think people forget how little Lenno Zero actually exists.

[radiator]

I had a flick through this the other day, and there's actually more Lenny Zero than I thought. I thought there was just the one off and a 3 parter.

Adventurer: Did your shop receive this book?  Mine only got the America collection this week.  :-(

[The Adventurer]

I've not been there yet, I might make it before work thou, I'll let you know.

(still never got Storming Heaven, Cabs Inc 2, or Kano)

[Ignatzmonster]

Got mine this week hipster d. Never recieved Storming Heaven, Cabs 2, kano, or Timekiller. Kind of glad about Kano, heard it was sub-par thrills.

I knew that's all there was of Zero. Just meant I wished Diggle had written more. So far as the momentum of the story goes, it could have lasted two volumes and not outstayed its welcome. Oh well.

[The Adventurer]

Annnnnnd neither America nor Undercover showed up. God Damn.

[Floyd-the-k]

They should get Pat Mills to write some episodes of Zero without asking Diggle's permission. He wouldn't suit the character, but the results would be interesting and he'd probably appreciate the irony. Probably

just finished.. loved it all except the dirty frank goes rock and roll one.the evil babies was much funnier.
