Judge Dredd: Complete Case Files

[Ripper]

Does anyone else collect these? I got the third today but havent started it yet. The first two were great though.

[The Adventurer]

YES! Yes I do. They are excelent, since I've been reading 2000AD since last year, they've been a great way to get into Judge Dredd's earliest adventures.

And it's great, the stories hold up really well since the time of their creation.

There are definitley some awsome stories in there, The Day The Law died is amazing and the amazing social satire just propells every strip into legendary status.

yeah, i wanna start getting these. They look like " Marvel Essential" style books for Dredd. I hope they get through the whole of Dredd'd career.

Its gonna take them a while if they do though, even with books coming out bi-monthly its going to take about 3 years to cover just whats in 2000 AD so we are looking at 5 or 6 if they decide to publish the megazine in them too. Im also interested in how they are gonna move to colour.

[The Adventurer]

Those questions are hotly debated on the offical 2000AD message board.

The general consenses from the fans is, they want the color stuff in color, because the painted era would look like crap in Gray scales. Also most would prefer a seperate line for the Meg stuff. A Mega Casefiles companion line if you will.

Most readers would also prefer for rebellion to just skip the Morrison/Miller Dredds of the 90s as they are 10 shades of s--t. But then the line would hardly be "complete" IMO, so I kinda swing with both sides of that debate.

At this point, who knows.

Also of note, Nemesis The Warlock is getting the Casefiles treatment at the end of the year. With the first 3 books of that getting a big fat release.

Actualy, You can see all the Rebellion TPs that currently are out and all the up coming collections for the rest of the year, here at 2000AD's TP website (http://www.2000adonline.com/books/index.php) Lots of Juicy Awesome coming.
