This infographic from Michael Hobson is pretty cool. He’s a designer and illustrator based in London and one of the founders of Digital Sizzle. I’m not entirely sure he’s a fan of Ghost in the Shell.

Durham Red returns to 2000 AD
Made famous by the popular Strontium Dog series, Durham Red will return to 2000 AD tomorrow (or Friday if you download from the 2000 AD store). Durham Red is mutant bounty hunter driven to feed on blood. Created by in 1987 by John Wagner, Alan Grant and Carlos Ezquerra, the 2012 return of Red is […]

Megazine 322, the Judge Dredd packed magazine, was on sale in the UK on the 28th of March and the 11th of April in the States. Attached to the magazine, er, megazine, was a QR code that let readers download the first track from the album: Lawmaster/Pursuit. Portishead’s Geoff Barrow and the Emmy-nominated composer Ben […]
The Dark Judges return
Today the countdown clock at 2000AD Online came to a close. What replaces it? The warning; “They are here”. Judge Dredd’s co-creater, John Wagner, has unleashed Judge Fear, Judge Fire and Judge Mortis onto Mega-City One. The timing is evil. This happens when the city is already reeling from the impact of the Chaos Bug […]
Superheroes on the D&D alignment chart
I think this superhero and villain alignment chart is particularly good. It takes the old school Dungeons and Dragons alignment scale and uses heroes and villains to populate it. The rest is that old D&D geeks get a kick out of the retro chic and the newer native geeks get an easy way to see […]
Planet Replicas: £2,000 for Judge Dredd cosplay outfit
Planet Replicas now has a online store and is licensed to sell official 2000 AD products. I think the press release says it better than I could; Alien editor of the Galaxy’s Greatest Comic, Tharg the Mighty, has decreed that suitable earthlets are now allowed to purchase official 2000 AD® products through the Planet Replicas […]
Judge Dredd: Karl Urban picture
Do you think Karl Urban can cut it as Judge Dredd? I think the Sly Stallone Judge Dredd film was just north of awful. That atom of success came from Stallone as Dredd. He looked the part. He had the chin. That shouldn’t sound shallow. 2000 AD is a visual art form. Judge Dredd is […]
Judge Minty trailer
There’s a Judge Dredd fan film in the works – called Judge Minty. This marks yet another fan flick. I’m beginning to think they’re going to come of age in 2011. We’ll be hearing about them on the news. We’ve already had the web change music production and distribution. Could the same happen to films? Judge […]

Solaris re-signs Eric Brown for Guardians of Phoenix series
Eric Brown’s first series (Necropath, Xenopath and Cosmopath) started life as Games Workshop books and concluded as Rebellion books. Judge Dredd fans know Rebellion as the publishers of 2000AD. The key to the deal is the imprint publisher – Solaris. It was a Games Workshop company when Necropath was published. Games Workshop got rid of […]
