Home to 50 million citizens, this urban hell is situated along the east coast of post-apocalyptic North America, where crime is rampant, and only the Judges – empowered to dispense instant justice – can stop total anarchy.

ULYSSES SWEET, MANIAC FOR HIRE // PSYCHO THERAPIST
The far future. Of all the lunatics that operate out of the mercenaries’ haven that is Solonik-5, none have a body-count that can compare with ULYSSES SWEET, MANIAC FOR HIRE.

JAEGIR // BROTHERS IN ARMS
The Greater Nordland Republic. While the Norts are currently engaged in a galaxy-wide war with the Souther forces, it falls to military officers such as Kapiten-Inspector Atalia JAEGIR of the Nordland State Security Police to root out and investigate war criminals amongst her own ranks.

LOW LIFE // THE REALLY BIG CHRISTMAS SLEEP
Mega-City One, 2136. Justice Department has many divisions within it – Tek, Psi-Div, SJS – and for undercover operations there is Wally Squad. So called because Judges have to imitate the bizarre fashions of the citizens to blend in, it can be dangerous living on the streets, and for a long-serving officer like Dirty Frank, positively ruinous to your sanity. After the events of Bachmann’s attempted coup, Frank’s not sure who he can trust... Rob Williams (w). D'Israeli (a).
Low Life created by Rob Williams & Henry Flint
MAX NORMAL // NO COMICS FOR OLD MEN
Mega-City One, 2136 AD. MAX NORMAL was once Dredd’s go-to informer, the Pinstripe Freak who had his ear permanently to the slab, the shuggy-playing legend with a taste for shampagne and the high life, who cruised the streets of the metropolis picking up all manner of info. Thirty-five years later, he’s left much of his nark larks behind him, but the city’s coolest cat can still get himself into trouble... Guy Adams (w). Ben Willsher (a).
Max Normal created by John Wagner & Mick McMahon
SAVAGE // GRINDERS
In 1999, Britain was invaded by the Volgans. When lorry driver BILL SAVAGE learned his family had been killed by a Volgan shell, he began a one-man war against the aggressors.

Pat Mills (w). Patrick Goddard

JUDGE DREDD // THE GHOST OF CHRISTMAS PRESENTS
Mega-City One, 2136 AD. Organised crime remains a perennial problem in the future metropolis, and with Judge numbers stretched after the catastrophic events of Chaos Day, many outfits are taking advantage of the lack of law and order. One such gang boss is the feared Pops Pomerantz, who is ruthlessly waging a territorial war against the other criminal organisations. Hits and retaliatory strikes are now almost daily... Michael Carroll (w). Karl Richardson (a)
