Two of the biggest characters in comic books duke it out
in their own iconic cities - more than 20 years since it was first published, the epic Batman
vs. Judge Dredd stories are still the most brutal crossovers in comics!
2000 AD is very proud to be working with DC Comics to
co-publish the highly anticipated THE BATMAN JUDGE DREDD COLLECTION, which brings together the
four team-ups between the Lawman of the Future and the Dark Knight for the first
time in a brand new hardback edition, with a fantastic roster of superstar talent, including
Simon Bisley and Glenn Fabry.
Originally released between 1991 and 1998, these epic
crossovers - Judgment on Gotham, Vendetta in Gotham, The Ultimate Riddle, and Die Laughing
- brought the dynamic duo together to fight their ultimate foes. From alien
super-fiend Judge Death escaping to Gotham to the Joker teaming up with the Dark Judges to cause
mass slaughter in Mega-City One, THE BATMAN JUDGE DREDD COLLECTION brilliantly captures the
lunacy and non-stop action of these two all-too-similar worlds from either side of the
Atlantic.
Judge Dredd co-creator John Wagner leads a pack of top
names, including Alan Grant (Batman, Lobo), Simon Bisley (Hellblazer), Glenn Fabry
(Preacher, Hellblazer), Val Semeiks (The Demon, Lobo), and Cam Kennedy (Batman, The Light and
Darkness War) - all contained in a cover from Hellboy creator Mike Mignola.
Published by 2000 AD in the UK and Ireland, and by DC in
North America, this ultimate new edition also includes the hard-to-find meeting between
Dredd and psychotic biker Lobo, and deserves a place in the collection of any self-respecting
Dredd or Batman fan.
