In this issue:
JUDGE DREDD: NEW BLOOD
by Rory McConville (writer) Siku (colourist) (colourist) Annie Parkhouse (letterer)
Mega-City One, 2141 AD. Home to over 130 million citizens, this urban hell is situated along the east coast of post-apocalyptic North America. Overcrowding is rife, unemployment near total, and boredom is endemic. Crime is rampant, and only the Judges — a zero-tolerance police force empowered to dispense instant justice — can stop total anarchy. Toughest of them all is JUDGE DREDD — he is the Law!
SCARLET TRACES: HOME FRONT
by Ian Edginton (writer) D'Israeli (artist) Ellie De Ville (letterer)
1968. It is decades since Mars waged war on Earth, and the major nations have access to Martian-derived technology, but Britain is still recovering from Martian bombardment in the 1940s, when much of the south of England was destroyed. This was followed by the arrival in the 1950s of two million Venusians, seeking refuge from Martian occupation. Now, the Martians have weaponised the sun, and are on the attack...
MAX NORMAL: HOW THE MAX GOT HIS STRIPES
by Guy Adams (writer) Dan Cornwell (artist) Jim Boswell (colourist) Simon Bowland (letterer)
Mega-City One, 2141 AD. MAX NORMAL was once Dredd’s go-to informer, the Pinstripe Freak who had his ear permanently to the slab, the shuggy-playing legend with a taste for shampagne and the high life, who cruised the streets of the metropolis picking up all manner of info. Forty years later, he’s left much of his nark larks behind him, and he’s now bought up old shuggy hall the Golden Pocket, a pivotal place in his childhood...
THARG'S THRILLERS: THE CHIMERA
by James Peaty (writer) Brian Corcoran (artist) Matt Soffe (colourist) Annie Parkhouse (letterer)
Three episodes, one complete, self-contained story — a condensed hit of super-charged Thrill-power beamed to you directly from the Nerve Centre! In The Grind, a sprawling mega-city, data-drone Jinx is looking for an escape from the drudgery of her life — and, together with her friends Cordelia and Jace, she’s found it in the shape of the Shock Corridor, a portal that transfers your consciousness into a fantasy dreamworld...
KINGMAKER: OUROBOROS
by Ian Edginton (writer) Leigh Gallagher (artist) Ellie De Ville (letterer)
The people of the Nine Kingdoms may have defeated Ichnar the Wraith King to live in relative peace and harmony, but they hadn’t reckoned on the Thorn — a race of aliens that occupied their world with the intention of strip-mining its magic. Wizard Ablard, ork Crixus and dryad Princess Yarrow believe they may have the means to stop them — not least because Crixus can somehow manifest the Ebora, the world-spirit...
