SCIENCE FICTION GRAPHIC NOVEL REVIEW: Judge Dredd: The Complete Case Files V 15 - John Wagner, Garth Ennis, Steve Dillon

BOOK BLURB:

2000 AD Graphic Novels presents you with the very best in thrill-power. From all-time classics such as Judge Dredd and Strontium Dog , to cutting edge modern masterworks such as Leviathan , Rebellion are bringing you some of the finest works in British comics!Mega-City One: the future metropolis bustling with life and every crime imaginable. Keeping order are the Judges, a stern police force acting as judge, jury and executioner. Toughest of all is Judge Dredd. He is the law and these are his stories. Volume 12 in this exciting, best-selling series collects together more classic Dredd from the pages of 2000 AD.


REVIEW:

As a huge fan of Dredd its always magical when a title lands and it aids me to remember big chunks of my youth from behind the pages. Within this offering are tales that give the reader exactly what they want, the dark humour of an apocalyptic world where too many are forced to live in a world where Judge, Jury and Executioner walk the mean streets in one uniform. Its well written, the artwork beautiful and has definitely helped me to see some of the changes from the time to which it was written to now.

A great offering for the reader and something that fans the world over are just going to love as they escape our world to that of Dredd’s for a few hours.
