A Thorough Blast to Read,
By
This review is from: Judge Anderson: Anderson, PSI-Division - Volume 1 (Paperback)
I'm getting why 2000 AD and Judge Dredd are so popular. The stories aren't spectacularly original. But they are well-plotted, well-characterized, and are always just a blast to read.
Case in point: "Judge Anderson: Anderson-Psi Division", which collects three story arcs from Judge Anderson's solo adventures. Judge Casandra Anderson is a denzien of a distant post-apocalyptic future, wherein the surviving population has been jammed into Mega cities. These cities are patrolled by judges, the best and the brightest the city has to offer. These judges are given the power to enforce the law, convict felons, and execute sentences, all on the spot. Some judges have various psionic abilites, which are useful to solving and preventing crime. Unlike Judge Dredd, Anderson is a character with a sense of humor, and certain warmth. That doesn't stop her from being a tough-as-nails badass when the situation calls for it. In the first story, "Four Dark Judges", Anderson becomes increasingly concerned that Judge Death and his cronyies are attempting to return. Her efforts to prevent that make matters worse. In "The Sacrifice", Anderson attempts to save a boy from demonic possession, but must face a no-win situation. And in "Hour of the Wolf", Anderson keeps getting images of a giant wolf attacking Mega-City 1, as a conspiracy of revenge is set in motion with her as a primary target. Despite the elaborate background of these stories, they're self-contained. If this is your first experience with the "Dreddverse", you won't be overwhelmed by continutiy or backstory. They're also actioned-packed hoots, with a solid ammount of satire and violence built in. Unfortunately, since DC is no longer publishing 2000 AD material, I have no idea when a volume two might be published, or by who. Still, it's worth your while to have the first one.
