Episodes include:
Mega-City One, 2076 AD. Home to over 800 million citizens, this
urban hell is situated along the east coast of post-apocalyptic
North America. On one side is the polluted Black Atlantic, and to
the west is the blasted radlands of the Cursed Earth. Overcrowding
in the metropolis is rife, unemployment is at ninety per cent,
boredom is universal and crime is rampant. Only the Judges — a
zero-tolerance police force empowered to dispense instant justice
— can stop total anarchy. CADET JOE DREDD — together with his
clone-brother Rico — is a rising star in Justice Department, and will
one day be its finest officer. Make no mistake, he is the Law!
Nu Earth is just one planet among many caught up in a galactic
war between the Norts and the Southers. Strategically vital, both
sides are desperate to secure it but use of chemical weapons
during the conflict has rendered the atmosphere poisonous. Now,
soldiers must wear special environment suits to venture onto its
surface. So the Southers created the Genetic Infantrymen, bred
to be immune to the planet’s lethal cocktail of pollutants. But the
gene-engineers are always looking to improve the next generation
of G.I.s, giving them specialised skills and abilities — and a squad
of young clones have gone AWOL, escaping from a Nort attack...
Once upon a time there were three twentysomething geeks —
Simon, Rufus and Clive — who shared what looked like an ordinary
semi-detached on a regular suburban street. But Clive had fitted
the house with a transdimensional drive that enabled it to cross
time and space, although it malfunctioned and they spent years
bouncing between worlds. Joined by sceptical new housemate
Sam, their travels finally came to an end when they returned to
Earth and became responsible adults — Rufus entered politics,
Clive became a CEO, and Simon and Sam got together as a couple,
eventually having kids. But the adventures didn’t stop there...
Out in the vast reaches of the universe, there are an infinite number
of stories waiting to be told. These cautionary tales pass from
traveller to traveller in the spaceports and around campfires on
distant planets, acquiring the status of legend, their shocking ends
a salutory lesson in hubris. Anything is possible in these twisted
trips into the galaxy’s dark side. Abandon your preconceptions,
and expect the unexpected. At some point in the future on
Earth, the level of waste will create the Great Debris Plain, a vast
landscape of garbage, where scavengers called Scrapers trawl the
rubbish mountains in search of valuable treasure...
Mega-City One, 2103 AD. Marlon Shakespeare was just an ordinary
juve in the vast twenty-second century metropolis, and like
most of his generation had little to no prospects, expecting a
future of unemployment and boredom. His parents have already
embraced the meaninglessness of life in the Big Meg, and spend
their days heading eggs into a bucket or washing up. But Marlon
was determined to make a name for himself, and under the alias
CHOPPER, became a famous scrawler, spraying his tag in the most
audacious of places. He was eventually arrested by Judge Dredd
and served an iso-cube sentence, but he’s now out....
