MUTIES OUT!

The great Atomic Wars on 2070 created a population of mutants who, due in part to their bizarre (and in most cases grotesque) deformities, have been denied citizenship in Mega-City One. Rejected by the ‘norms’ and forcibly kept away from the city by the Judges, the mutants have had no choice but to live in the vast, radioactive wasteland known as the ‘Cursed Earth’. For years the two factions have harboured a growing resentment for each other which occasionally leads to outbreaks of violence, often with tragic consequences. The only thing stopping an all-out mutant/human war from happening is the Justice Department and law enforcers such as Judge Dredd - norm or not, He is the law!

This collection of stories chronicling mutated mayhem in Mega-City One includes work from John Wagner (Button Man), John Higgins (Watchmen), Duncan Fegredo (Marvel Zombies) and Warren Ellis (Red) amongst others.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Collection
Reviewed in the United States on January 12, 2014
It's been a good nine months since I sunk my teeth into a good Judge Dredd collection and this made me feel right at home. The focus in this collection is obviously the muties. I love the mutants because the stories involving them remind me of the bar scene in the original Star Wars. LOL. The book is mostly in colour but does start out with some early b/w comics. Spanning from 1977 to 2011 we do actually see character development of Dredd as he gets a conscience about the mutants. Most of the book has stories when the mutants were confined to the Cursed Earth and these ones we often feel for the mutants rather than Dredd and the other Judges. Then the last several stories take place after the muties have been allowed to become citizens and live in Mega-City One. Dredd now, of course, has more compassion but we also see that whether mutie or norm, a criminal is a criminal. I enjoyed this entire collection; most stories were serious with only a few bits of camp and cheese included for good old fun. While I liked some more than others, the only one I didn't like was the last short one. Fans will love this collection and it could make a good starter for newbies to the Dredd Universe.

This book shows the change Dredd undergoes throughout the years from a hard nosed, no nonsense, the law is the law, to a more understanding, dare we say, a more compassionate Dredd.
