The Day of Dredd is the perfect day for readers new and old to discover 2000 AD’s biggest character and Britain’s greatest comics export — a hardline future cop created by John Wagner (A History of Violence) and Carlos Ezquerra (Preacher), who has been bringing justice to the mean streets of the vast Mega-City One for almost half a century, both thrilling readers and satirising everything from Margaret Thatcher to Donald Trump, from fad fashions to freedom fighters. As well as helping launch the careers of some of comics’ biggest names, Dredd has become one of the most iconic characters in British comics and even part of the English language!

In addition to the long-running and best-selling
