    Swierczynski is writing Dredd...
    Welp, sounds like I'll just be sticking to 2000AD and the reprints in the Complete Casefiles.

    I don't know. It SOUNDS like he's in love with the character and the world enough to do it justice...

    Not really familiar with his work. Although Bloodshot seems to be getting good reviews.
    Ill probably try it out.

    So? A lot of people that love the characters they write end up putting out poor quality work.
    The only comic of Swierczynski's that I enjoyed on any level was Immortal Iron Fist. Everything else has bored me.

    Duane S did one of the best Cable runs so I'm looking forward to this.

    "I'd like IDW's Dredd to feel like a transgressive sci-fi black comedy police procedural -- like 'Law & Order,' if, say, Jerry Orbach were a violent inflexible fascist," Swierczynski told CBR News"

    Oooh now I really want to see Mariska Hargitay in a Judge uniform!

    I hope that this US version of Judge Dredd will not be for the sissies and will keep ALL the aspects and traits of the original characters. If it is not "Wagner approved", I won't buy it. And I wlll nuke the US for that. All those perps and stupid democracy's fangoers... It's time to clean this country.

    I already buy the original each week!!!
