Hi.

Honestly, I am completely new not only to the 2000 AD forums, but also to the comics.(With the exception of "The Stainless Steel Rat" which my girlfreind got me for christmas a few hours before breaking up with me. So weathe she intended to get me something I like or not I am unsure.)I am very much into collecting graphic novels, and I like the darker grittier ones, like Watchmen, Batman, Predator and stuff like that.

It has only recently occurred to me start collecting Judge Dredd, which has surprised even me. Why I have not sooner, I have no idea, as he is cool as they come and my father is very much into 2000AD. (I think he has been collecting them since they started in the 70s)
So, it's not like I have never heard of him.

So basically, I am looking for the best Graphic Novels starring Dredd. I have seen that there are the complete case files, but honestly I think it would be best if I didn't start at the start, rather at the best.

Can anyone help me out by suggesting his best stories?

Also, I am massively addicted to the Alien and Predator franchises, mainly because of Rebellions latest game? If anyone else is into it, I am admin on a aliens vs predator fansite/forum  http://www.aliensvspredator.net/

Welcome aboard MR. ELIMINATOR.

Seeing as you are also a big fan of Batman, Aliens & Predators how about having a read of these crossovers (unless you have already).

Bit of a long thread but well worth a look through as it discusses just this topic. Loads of good stuff out there.

Thanks. I was aware of these titles, but I tend to try ignore these crossovers. As I Batman Vs Predator wasn't too great. Besides, I don't think it would reveal much to me about the character of Dredd that I didn't already know.

Welcome.
I would strongly advise these. They work well in the Dredd world.

Especially Dredd vs Aliens, which is not only top drawer stuff for both writing and art, but serves as a pretty good taster to Dredd's world. And welcome!
