Synopsis

A CLASSIC MODERN JUDGE DREDD STORY PRESENTED IN THE LOW-PRICED DIGEST FORMAT!

Sergeant Nate Slaughterhouse is the veteran of many bloody wars fought on alien planets, but after being mortally wounded on the battlefield the only way to save his life is to cybernetically reconstruct his body, turning him into more machine than man – a mandroid!

Discharged from the army Nate returns to Mega-City One, struggling to deal with his new existence. When his family are subject to a vicious attack his bitterness turns to anger, and he takes to the streets to dispense brutal vigilante justice. But there’s room for only one law in the Big Meg... And Dredd’s on the case!

Written by John Wagner (A History of Violence) with art by Kev Walker (ABC Warriors), Simon Coleby (Low Life) and Carl Critchlow (Lobster Random) this dark tale of revenge is 2000 AD at its pulse-pounding best!
