Geddes17: Humble Comics Bundle "Judge Dredd" from IDW and 2000AD:
https://www.humblebundle.com/books/judge-dredd-comics I only know the film with Karl Urban (which I liked) - any recommendations about the comics?
Some scattered thoughts on the comics being offered:
The definitive Dredd author is probably Wagner; you can get a sample of him in the $1 tier. I'm not the hugest fan of the American IDW series (Swierczynski), although since Dredd has been running forever now in 2000AD, its being self-contained might be an advantage for new readers. Then again, Origins should also be largely self-contained, as I recall. Cry of the Werewolf is fine but disposable.
The $8 tier contains a bunch of the IDW stuff that I'm not familiar with. It also contains America, which a lot of people would consider to be the definitive Judge Dredd story, although I think it derives some of its effectiveness from being already familiar with the character--Dredd's always been a fascist, but the comics tend towards the humorous, so when Wagner wrote a more serious story about living in a police state, it was pretty jarring.
The $15 tier contains some major early Dredd stories in the Complete Case Files Vol. 5; "Judge Death Lives" introduces three of the Dark Judges, who are basically [I]the[/I] Dredd badguys (Judge Death was introduced earlier, which is included in another $15 tier item, "The Dark Judges"), and the Apocalypse War was one of the great Dredd epics. The Fourth Faction is the start of a much more recent epic; reading it back-to-back with Apocalypse War sounds kind of exhausting. I'm a huge fan of Rob Williams' Mega-City Undercover, a Dredd spin-off series.
