Judge Dredd goes to trial on crimes against humanity. But not everything is what it seems. I really enjoy this story. It makes you wonder how Dredd feels about his victims. Everything is justifable. For the Greater Good.
The ending is quite good. You should hear this tale..
This was oh-so-good. Alhtough the identity of the Sov-Sleeper-Agent was really obvious before half way through this one, this still was so oh-so-good. One of the best Dredds I can remember.
