Judge Dredd Megazine #457 is OUT NOW!
We reach the climax of ‘One-Eyed Jacks’ as the plot to rewrite history relies on New York cops McBane and Fargo to thwart it and consequently save Mega-City One, plus there’s more thrilling action in Dreadnoughts, Spector (with Dan Cornwell taking over on art duties from the late Carlos Ezquerra), Lawless and the penultimate part of Death Metal Planet.
Elsewhere, there’s chats with Dredd artist Kieran McKeown and fellow pencil-bot Rob Davis, a look at the stunning Kevin O’Neill Apex Edition, following similar tomes featuring the work of Brian Bolland and Mick McMahon, which Kev was closely involved with shortly before his death, and John Wagner reveals all about the return of The Bogie Man, his, Alan Grant and Robin Smith’s creator-owned detective comedy, a collection of which is being Kickstarted as we speak.
Judge Dredd Megazine #457 is out now from all good newsagents and comic book stores, plus digitally from our webshop and apps! Don’t forget that if you buy an issue of the Megazine in the first month of its release then postage in the UK is free!
