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

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.

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 […]

Not your money – but theirs. Mongoose’s money must go in as subsidies as to ensuring a rock bottom price. That’s the only way […]
