Despite not being the "home" of Judge DREDD, I think that I will give a try.
The cover is superb, the art seems very good (exceptions made from the little US comic book size), and for the price, well, I will do with it.
But (there is a BIG "BUT"), my instinct is shouting to me to not buy the US versions of Judge DREDD...
So, I really do not know what to do... DROKK!!!

Really looking forward to this one. Matt Smith has been Tharg's little helper that you gotta think this is in safe hands and I've always advocated stories exploring Dredd's past, or more importantly Mega City Ones.

Smith shows a lot of class by saying up front the story won't be adopted into 2000AD continuity and that it would be Wagner's story to tell. As a longtime fan, I appreciate that.
