This was provided to me by netgalley for an open and honest review.
Growing up thanks to my dad I've always had a soft spot in my heart for Judge Dredd, and from time to time I'd sneak a few of his comics, or I'd read the 2000AD encyclopedia to learn more about the world. However this year I've decided to make my way through the comics and read as much as I can, starting with this bindup.
I'm safe to say this was excellent. The art was gorgeous, and the story was gripping and easy to follow. I think this would be a perfect start for people wondering where to begin with Dredd, as it highlights the world well, while hinting at whats going on behind the scenes. An excellent all round book and I look forward to reading more.

I really wanted to like this book, but I just couldn't get into it at first. I started over after asking some questions to my husband about the Dredd world. It wasn't that I was missing information that made it too difficult to understand, I think I was just missing the investment in the world. I loved the art and the colors, it made the fact that this was a post-apocalyptic world just stand out so much. I kept going back and forth with the stories. Some were just ok while others were so hard to put down. I did feel like I understood why my husband loves the world of Judge Dredd and 2000AD so much.
