I love Dredd no idea why it is never discussed...

i mean what is not to like

So do I.

I do too. It's like how we never talk about Hellboy, Prophet etc.

Great comics don't produce enough ire to be discussed on here.

Where do I start? Preferably a collection or some background about volumes

Judge Dredd: The Complete Case Files. Volume after volume of Dredd from the very start.

Not him, but thanks man.

You could start with some of the one offs like America or the Dredd and Batman Collection.

But I'd just go ahead and get the Complete Case Files. Then you can get into it proper. Depends on whether you can stomach the really old stuff. Otherwise start with number 5, it has Judge Death, Bloc MAnia and the Apocalypse War which are all classics.
There are a couple of good torrents around if you are unsure whether you wanna drop the money.

2000ad can make any protag enjoyable to follow. For instance for the first 3rd or so of Shakara all he says is his name, but you're still tototally engaged in what he does.

Awesome, thanks m8s

Pirating is 20 years in the iso cube, creep.

I liked the early strips when Dredd was slender, of ambiguous race and faintly camp.

How many Judges are there anyway?
I mean considering the size and overpopulation of the city state you'd need multiple armies to to just enforce basic regulations.

I figure most of the time it's been discussed to death and most threads are anons asking for recommendations on where to start reading.

Also, most of them don't have a new movie or comic around to talk about.

In one of the Daily Dredd mini-strips one judge says "with him around who needs the other 59,000 of us?"

That seems a bit small for 400 million people but I don't think realism is a big issue in Judge Dredd

I actually like the slim Dredd more too, he seems more lethal and quick, but the full on roided-out Chin fits Dredd as an institution better.

if you wanted to commit suicide in Mega City One, wouldn't the most efficient and painless way be to attack a Judge?

Well, it's not 400 million anymore.

Yeah, way too small. In fact even 400 million people in the huge area of MC1 could live quite comfortably.
