Synopsis:

A collection of the greatest "Judge Dredd" tales illustrated by the greatest "Judge Dredd" artists.

THE LOOK OF THE LAW!

Mega-City One - a vast, futuristic urban nightmare and home to over 400 million citizens, each one a potential lawbreaker. A special kind of lawman polices these mean streets - they are known as the Judges; judge, jury and executioner all rolled into one. The most respected of them all is Judge Dredd - he IS the law!

Featuring pulse-pounding stories from the fevered imaginations of John Wagner (A History of Violence), Alan Grant (Batman, Lobo), Gordon Rennie (White Trash) and Rob Williams (Cla$$war) and breathtaking art from such talents as Frazer Irving (Batman & Robin), Cam Kennedy (Star Wars) and Guy Davis (B.P.R.D.), this thrilling instalment of the Mega-City Masters series is not to be missed!

About the Authors: John Wagner has been scripting for 2000 AD for more years than he cares to remember. His creations include Judge Dredd, Strontium Dog, Ace Trucking, Al's Baby, Button Man and Mean Machine. Outside of 2000 AD his credits include Star Wars, Lobo, The Punisher and the critically acclaimed A History of Violence.

With over 300 2000 AD stories to his name - not to mention over 250 Daily Star Judge Dredd strips - Alan Grant's prolific creative record speaks for itself. Outside the Galaxy's Greatest Comic, Grant is well-known to Batman fans following a lengthy run on various incarnations of the title. More recently he has adapted Robert Louis Stevenson's classic novels Kidnapped and Doctor Jekyll and Mr Hyde in Graphic Novel format with artist Cam Kennedy.

Jock is one of 2000 AD's finest young creators. As well as illustrating Judge Dredd, Pulp Sci-Fi, Tharg the Mighty and Tor Cyan, Jock co-created Lenny Zero with ex-2000 AD editor Andy Diggle, and now produces work for the American market under exclusive contract to DC Comics. Among these projects are the Eisner award nominated The Losers and Green Arrow: Year One, also with Diggle, and numerous covers including Batman, Catwoman, Scalped and Hellblazer. Outside of comics, Jock has enjoyed a successful career as a movie concept artist, working on such films as Hancock, Children of Men, Batman Begins, The Losers and the forthcoming Dredd movie.

Kevin O'Neill was a 2000 AD legend. From working as an art assistant on the very first prog, he quickly became involved in the creative side of the comic, co-creating classics like A.B.C. Warriors, Bonjo From Beyond The Stars, Metalzoic and Nemesis the Warlock. Outside the Galaxy's Greatest Comic, O'Neill was briefly notorious as the only artist ever to have his work rejected wholesale by the Comics Code Authority! Happily, his notoriety quickly became fame and acclaim, as his work on strips like Marshal Law and most recently The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen raised him to a very high profile.

Bryan Talbot is one of the UK's most respected comics artists. He has contributed to Future Shocks, Judge Dredd, Nemesis the Warlock, Ro-Busters and Sláine in the Galaxy's Greatest Comic, and most recently wrote and illustrated a silent One-Off. Beyond 2000 AD, Talbot is renowned for his body of graphic novel work, which includes The Adventures of Luther Arkwright, Heart of Empire, The Tale of One Bad Rat and Alice in Sunderland.
