The Complete reading order

For people wanting a sampling of Dredd the mega collection is good, for collectors however the list below is far better





Reading Order



Welcome to Mega-Blog One, this blogs goal as explained in much more detail in our welcome is to review not just all Dredd comics but all Dredd related merchandise, films/fan films, and other Dredd related items, eventually the inevitable Judge Dredd tv series will also be reviewed here as well.

This post is here just to provide an easy to reference reading order for those who want to collect every Judge Dredd story in existence, the complete case files do make things a lot easier for the modern fan, but it is still convenient to cross reference when the Judge Anderson, Chopper, and other Dredd series fit within the posts.  Also I will be reviewing Dredd stories in the following order so consider this a semi-release schedule as well.

Additionally at the end I tried to compile the trade I am aware of into an easily readable list, a lot of the newer prog's are still uncollected, If you have any suggestions for a trade I missed, it's probably because I don't know it exists yet and I would appreciate your suggestions to the list and will update it accordingly, I will regularly update this post with updates and easy to access links to my own reviews once they are available.

JUDGE DREDD: the ORIGINAL adventures-THE DAY THE LAW DIED & THE APOCALYPSE WAR- audio drama

          I listen to old radio shows on my drive to work, I have a thirty minute commute every morning and evening, living in the country my cell phone doesn’t get service during my drive, that eliminates Pandora and Spotify from my options list and I don’t like music enough to buy it on itunes, thus I’ve been restricted to the radio top tens every day and I got sick of them. Then I found radio drama’s I started with the obvious ones everyone knows, lone ranger, the green hornet, superman ect, but overtime I have found more obscure and newer stuff. To me the best radio Dramas are exciting, a little funny, a little cheesy, and basic enough I don’t get lost if I get distracted on the road, but interesting enough I still care.

So the only way to get into it is to dive straight into it.  The first Dredd radio show is

Contains 2000 AD Progs 376-423         Now a full 3 case files after the apocalypse war I started to want more epic stories. The last two volumes (And years in publishing) were primarily focused with showing the aftermath of the Apocalypse War and while the wars shadow will always hang in Judge Dredd akin to September 11 th here in the States, the volume begins moving on. This Volume we get three extended Dredd semi-epics this time around, none of which are related to the apocalypse war.            Moving on from the apocalypse war as it kicks off a semi-epic story “Dredd Angel”. Leads into “The Hell Trekkers’ and concludes with “City of the dammed” while some may be better than others all three are great stories. The first two of these stories call back to the complete case files 04 the Judge child but I enjoyed them more than the Judge child. The cursed earth is always bonkers          The first of these two and the longest clocking in at 29 progs “The He
