The latest Megazine his packed with more action from Dredd, Blunt, and Lawless, plus new Devlin Waugh and Tales from the Black Museum!
Judge Dredd Megazine 422 is out now!
IT’S HARD TO IMAGINE NOW A UK ANTHOLOGY TITLE REPRINTING BOTH MARVEL AND DC PROPERTIES under the same cover but that was the unique case in the 1960s with Smash!, which had the licence to repurpose Hulk, Thor and Fantastic Four stories alongside Batman and Superman.
Following last month’s deep dive into Lion, Stephen Jewell follows up with a piece on this Odhams’ classic that mixed humour strips from the likes of Ken Reid with action-adventure tales, and whose name got to live again in the special Rebellion published in May.
Elsewhere in this issue, there’s three complete stories – Judge Dredd: Extraction by Rory McConville and Ben Willsher, Devlin Waugh: The Wolves of St Vitus by Ales Kot and Patrick Goddard, and Tales From the Black Museum: The Cackle by Alec Worley and Leigh Gallagher – plus the latest instalment of Lawless, and the final ever episode of Blunt as the trilogy comes to its explosive finale.
As mentioned, we’re building towards the Meg’s thirtieth anniversary in September, which will be celebrated with a bumper issue featuring a stunning all-new line-up – don’t miss it, citizens!
Judge Dredd Megazine 421 is now available from all good comic book shops and newsagents – as well as 2000 AD‘s webshop and apps.
Don’t forget that if you buy this issue in print direct from our webshop within the next month you’ll not pay a penny in postage fees in the UK! And if you subscribe to the Megazine you’ll get a FREE print of each month’s cover with each issue!
