Judge Dredd Megazine 454 out now

Judge Dredd Megazine #454 is OUT NOW and two series reach their finales this issue – as Storm Warning’s underworld escapades come to a thrilling climax, and the conclusion of the second arc of Surfer has Zane Perks facing off against criminal kingpin Snarky for the last time!

Elsewhere in this issue, however, alongside the latest instalments of Dredd, Devlin Waugh and Death Metal Planet, there’s interviews with Brian Bolland about his new memoir It’s About Time, and Mega-City Two writer and double Eisner Award winner Douglas Wolk, plus we celebrate the career of artist Eric Bradbury, who went from flying night-time raids over Nazi Germany to drawing such gems as Doomlord, The Dracula File, Invasion 1984, and numerous Future Shocks and Tharg The Mighty stories amongst others. Enjoy!

Judge Dredd Megazine 438 is out now!

Angelic, Devlin Waugh and The Returners all wrap up this issue, plus we have a complete Judge Dredd thriller from Ian Edginton and Dave Taylor, and another eerie Tale From the Black Museum, courtesy of Paul Starkey and Nick Dyer, allowing for a fantastic all-new line-up to start in next month’s Xmas Meg.

Dan Abnett and Phil Winslade reunite for the much-anticipated next series of Lawless, Ballots Over Badrock; having chronicled some of Chopper’s most iconic moments, John Wagner and Colin MacNeil take to the Mega-City skies once again for Surfer as the latest generation of powerboarders become embroiled in a criminal enterprise; we’re back in Brit-Cit for the third and final series of Diamond Dogs, courtesy of regular creators James Peaty and Warren Pleece; and Blunt collaborators T.C. Eglington and Boo Cook team up for the Cursed Earth-set revenge drama Death Cap.

All this, and of course Ol’ Stoney-Face greets the festive season with about as much goodwill as you’d imagine in Saviour by Ken Niemand and Steven Austin. Lots to enjoy as we leave 2021 – and there are plenty more surprises to come in the new year!
