Cheers, Kowalsky.
I'm sure I posted here many years ago about hating story title puns on the name Dredd!

It has a certain irony granted but bodes well for this film :)

Moving on here is a link to an article which does hit home for the uninitiated. Including a visit to the twooth booth at San Diego Comic Con.

Wow. Does anybody have anything bad to say about 'Dredd'?- I feel like I'm dreaming...

I do.. We still have to wait two months to see it.

I like this;

As I stated above this is a first impression of DREDD 3D. I don't feel as if I have the full Judge Dredd comic knowledge to make a fair full review. What I saw was gritty, raw, and refreshing. I don't need my movie comic book heroes to save the world every time. Studios, however, want the giant sweeping epic. What I got was a good story that wasn't over the top nor plagued by comic relief. Yes, Rob Schneider, I am looking at you.

I stopped at the 2000 AD (publishers of the comic) booth at Comic Con and asked the all important question, "Where do I start with Judge Dredd?" A question I had no desire to ask in 1995. The answer was quick and simple, "The Day the Law Died" by John Wagner. A copy of which was promptly stuck in my had by a extremely helpful British gentlemen.

Which ironically is the story most similar to the plot of the '95 film.

True, but it has the real Fergee, Cal, Judge Fish of course and a good range of artists. I've seen that described as being "a bad thing" but as an introduction it has its merits.
