Bit of an old timer? I think you'll find that the majority of us are around your age spireite. I don't live and work too far from you, was raised in Killamarsh, went to Chesterfield art college, work in Halfway - currently live just outside Mansfield... Dredd fan forever :-)

Hello again.

Nothing wrong with having affection for such fine material, I guess a lot of it is the age you come to something.  As a later arrival, I love a lot of that stuff but The Day The Law Died lacks the nostalgia value for me that things like Necropolis or The Pit have.  Funny old world.  

Welcome back and post lots.

Thanks guys.I tend to buy 2000ad and the Meg just for Dredd really, the odd story gets my attention but mainly its Dredd i read. I love the way the character has progressed. Was looking at some of the earlier stuff not long ago and it was ok for the time but now its seems very cringeworthy(remember the bloodhound droid in The Robot Wars and the so out of place Ron Turner artwork on that episode). I think the last few years has been excellent with some great stories Sin City, Mandroid and i loved Origins, some of us have been waiting years for that.
