Description
THE WRONG SIDE OF THE LAW!
It takes a special kind of cop to police the nightmarish streets of Mega-City One - a violent post-apocalyptic city built on top of North America's old East Coast. An army of future lawmen, wielding the powers of judge, jury and executioner now keep order in this crime-ridden place. Known as the 'Judges', most of these men and women serve as the ultimate law enforcers - beyond reproach and resistant to corruption, they are the best the world has ever seen. But there's always one or two who succumb to lawless behaviour and with years of intense training and experience to draw upon, these Judges are the most dangerous individuals on the planet!
This collection includes stories about those Judges too corrupt to uphold the law! From Judge Dredd co-creator John Wagner (A History of Violence) and comics superstar Mark Millar (Kick-Ass), featuring the amazing art of Chris Weston (The Filth), Will Simpson (Hellblazer), Steve Yeowell (The Invisibles) and Greg Staples (Bad Planet), amongst others.
