JUDGE DREDD // THE OUBLIETTE by Ken Niemand (w) Dan Cornwell (a) Chris Blythe (c) Annie Parkhouse (l)
Some great use of the different Nort/Souther factions here, and I wonder if we are going to see any other references to more 2000 AD characters too. It looks like we’ll get some bigger aciton next issue!
BRINK // THE CALL OF THE VOID by Dan Abnett (w) INJ Culbard (a) Simon Bowland (l)
This arc is so tense. The confrontation and big reveal at the end looks like it’s going to set something else up too. I am really invested in this story!
THE FALL OF DEADWORLD // JUSTICE by Kek-W (w) Dave Kendall (a) Simon Bowland (l)
Plenty of action here and some alliances made. I like the realisation of one of the dark Judges and how it affects them.
NIGHTMARE NEW YORK // BOOK TWO by Kek-W (w) David Roach (a) Peter Doherty (c) Annie Parkhouse (l)
I love the use of the various types of magic in this story, with some clever uses and some dark ones too. There is an interesting aspect with the Golem here.
JUDGE ANDERSON // THE VOID by Liam Johnson (w) Rob Richardson (a) Rob Steen (l)
Something from before the tower perhaps. Delving into someone’s mind is always dangerous, and the artwork is excellent here in showing the memories.
