Judge Dredd: A Better World
A ground-breaking, heart-breaking story of hope, fear, politics and pathos, Judge Dredd: A Better World is the new, unmissable modern classic.
Written by Rob Williams (Suicide Squad) and Arthur Wyatt (Intestinauts), with art by Henry Flint (Shakara), ‘A Better World’ has been acclaimed by critics and fans alike as a story that has changed the face of one of Britain’s most famous comics characters.
Drawing on the impact of the real-world ‘defund the police’ movement, in the dystopian future city of Mega-City One an accounts Judge called Maitland realises that, by taking funding from the vast police state apparatus of Justice Department and diverting it into education and housing, she could effectively wipe out crime. Such a radical message threatens the power of the Judges and if a large-scale experiment is successful then they could well be overthrown. Even as the experiment appears to work, powerful forces within Judges and the city will do everything in their power to destroy the better world it promises.
Williams, Wyatt, and Flint have crafted a taut and visually stunning political thriller that challenges readers to reassess what they think of the world of Judge Dredd.
This collection also includes key stories by Williams and Wyatt that give readers the full story of Judge Maitland’s plan to ‘defund the judges’ from its inception through to execution, including ‘Carry The Nine’ and ‘The Pitch’ with artist Boo Cook, and ‘The Hard Way’ with artist Jake Lynch.
