Judge Dredd: Rend & Tear with Tooth & Claw Arrives in 2026!

Posted on by

Out of fuel, out of bullets, and out of hope… Judge Dredd is going to have to tame the wilderness of nuclear winter in order to survive! 

Bringing together two pulse-pounding stories into one hard-hitting collection, the latest addition to the staggering Judge Dredd range arrives next February in the form of Judge Dredd: Rend & Tear with Tooth & Claw! Written by Rob Williams and penciled by RM Guera, this collection smashes two chase stories together to explore the primal impulses which power the Lawman of the Future ever-forward.

Kicking off this 128-page collection, in Rend & Tear with Tooth & Claw Dredd finds himself stranded with a small team after his jet crashes into the middle of the snowy wilderness, the heart of the Northern Radlands. With a dwindling team around and fewer resources, he has to team up with the rookie Cadet Moon if he’s any hope of escaping back to Mega-City One! But the wilderness is unforgiving, and the bloody wreckage has attracted the attention of an alpha-hunter: a gigantic bear hungry for Dredd’s blood!

Then, Tunnels sets Dredd in the role of hunter, as he engages in a desperate manhunt to bring down a killer! Tracking his quarry to future-Rio, Ciudad Barranquilla, Dredd will have to navigate the concrete jungles of the dystopian city as well as the literal jungles surrounding the city if he’s going to bring down his target and bring down the full justice of the law!

Judge Dredd: Rend & Tear with Tooth & Claw will be published on February 10, 2025, and is available for pre-order now in paperback and hardback editions!
