Judge Dredd: The Musical! by Rob Williams (w) Chris Weston (a) Gary Caldwell (c) Annie Parkhouse (l)
We get to the intricacies of the plot here. It's still pretty amusing, and no Dredd yet to stomp in. I love some of the commentaries and the build-up is tense!
The Diaboliks: London Calling by Gordon Rennie (w) Dom Reardon (a) Jim Campbell (l)
We've gone full circle here, and I like how the threat is laid out. There are some interesting moral problems here - who do we support? I like how it ends up though and an interesting twist at the end.
Dexter: Lordy Jordy, King of Everything by Dan Abnett (w) Tazio Bettin (a) Matt Soffe (c) Simon Bowland (l)
Full-on chase here, with bio-engineered dinosaurs. I'm not sure how the team will get out of this one, and there are some good close calls.
Scarlet Traces: Storm Front by Ian Edginton (w) D'Israeli (a) Simon Bowland
A slower issue, but here we see the devastation on Earth and the characters we may have met before. The reaction following this issue will be interesting and if all goes to plan, where next?
The Out Book 2 by Dan Abnett (w) Mark Harrison (a) Annie Parkhouse (l)
A crazy look here, with some interesting points. I like the realisation as everything builds up - there are some good points made and some funny ones. The threat of the final panel makes things tense for the next issue.
