Synopsis

In this brand new collection launching first in the US and Canada, Dredd discovers that the sin-seekers of the Big Meg are more inventive, funny and down sexier than he could have imagined.

THE STREETS OF MEGA-CITY ONE HAVE NEVER BEEN SO FILTHY!
Sex – it’s a big business in the ‘Big Meg’. From state-of-the-art sex-bots to the hugely-popular sex championships, for enough credits citizens can indulge in their wildest, erotic desires.

But some people can’t help themselves and break the law when looking for lust in all the wrong places! Take randy teen Rodney Murchinson for example... so enamoured with his newly purchased sexmek that he is prepared to commit murder for her! Or the unfortunate circumstances of Bella Bagley whose passion for the famous lawman Judge Dredd has driven her crazy! Meanwhile, you won’t believe your eyes when you see Beaker Jones’s mutation!

This collection of lascivious law-breaking tales features work from some of 2000 AD’s greatest talent, including Judge Dredd creators John Wagner and Carlos Ezquerra, Alan Grant (Batman), Greg Staples (Sinister Dexter), Ian Gibson (The Ballad of Halo Jones) and Simon Bisley (Lobo) amongst others.

A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

John Wagner has been scripting for 2000 AD for more years than he cares to remember. His creations include Judge Dredd, Strontium Dog, Ace Trucking, Al’s Baby, Button Man and Mean Machine. Outside of 2000 AD his credits include Star Wars, Lobo, The Punisher and the critically acclaimed A History of Violence.

With over 300 2000 AD stories to his name – not to mention over 250 Daily Star Judge Dredd strips – Alan Grant’s prolific creative record speaks for itself. Outside the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic, Grant is well-known to Batman fans following a lengthy run on various incarnations of the title. More recently he has adapted Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic novels Kidnapped and Doctor Jekyll and Mr Hyde in Graphic Novel format with artist Cam Kennedy.

Simon Bisley occupies an almost unique place in 2000 AD history, as one of the first UK artists to popularise the fully-painted style pioneered by Argentinian artist Alberto Brecchia. His highly dynamic artwork made his two major series in the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic — A.B.C. Warriors: The Black Hole and Sláine: The Horned God — very popular, as they remain to date. He also illustrated Heavy Metal Dredd in the Megazine, an ultra-graphic, adults-only take on the lawman, before going on to pencil the hugely successful first Batman/Judge Dredd crossover story, Judgement on Gotham. Bisley has provided countless pin-ups and short pieces across an astonishing variety of comics, from legendary fantasy anthology Heavy Metal to anarchic DC superhero series Lobo, and has an even more extensive CV in Europe, where his painted style enjoys enormous success.

Mike Collins is the illustrator and co-creator of American Gothic. He has also worked on Judge Dredd, Rogue Trooper Sinister Dexter, Sláine and several Future Shocks.

Carlos Ezquerra was the co-creator of Judge Dredd, Strontium Dog, Rat Pack, Major Eazy and many other fan-favourite characters, he designed the classic original Dredd costume as well as visually conceptualising Mega-City One. In addition to these credits he also illustrated A.B.C. Warriors, Judge Anderson, Tharg the Mighty, and Cursed Earth Koburn amongst many other stories. Outside of the ‘Galaxy’s Greatest Comic’, Ezquerra illustrated the first Third World War episodes in Crisis magazine, and became a regular collaborator with Garth Ennis, working on Adventures in the Rifle Brigade, Bloody Mary, Just a Pilgrim, Condors, The Magnificent Kevin and two special Preacher episodes. He died in 2018 but his profound influence on the world of comic art cannot be overstated.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture
