What is WRONG with you people?! For years, I've been trying to get you graphic novels readers to try collections of Judge Dredd strips (and others taken from Judge Dredd's parent anthology comic: 2000 A.D.), but it's been like convincing a Paul McCartney fan who's never heard the Beatles to give the Fab Four a listen, and always coming up against a brick wall. Alan Moore, Neil Gaiman, Dave Gibbons, Grant Morrison, Garth Ennis, Steve Dillon, Mark Millar, and a host of now-famous artists and writers honed their various crafts working on Judge Dredd and other 2000 A.D. characters.
Its time to forgive and forget the Stallone movie, folks! Besides, Judge Dredd graphic novels are closer in spirit and tone to RoboCop and Futurama than the film that actually bears the character's name.
So now you have no excuse: The current batch of collections are affordable and beautiful. The classic strips have never looked better, and they're printed in chronological order from Day One (but I'd start with Volume 3).
As Mega City One's toughest lawman would say, "Ignorance of the law is NO excuse, creep!"

Eric Volz was in his late twenties when he moved from California to Nicaragua. He and a friend founded a bilingual magazine and became suddenly and surprisingly successful, until their lives took a dark turn: Eric's ex-girlfriend was found murdered, and he was the prime suspect. Imprisoned, he suffered unbelievable conditions while fighting the press and his onetime friends, all of whom believed him guilty. A story that made national and international headlines, this is the first and only book to tell Eric’s absorbing, moving account in his own words.
