Borag Thungg, earthlets of /co/! Time to read the latest Judge Dredd story, a comedy of errors if there ever was one, as the threat of slicey-dicey oncey-twicey warsy looms large over the 22nd century megalopolis of Mega-City One! With the survival of the human race caught between a claw and a sharp fang, top lawman Judge Dredd finds himself seeking the help of one of the most repulsive and pathetic creatures in the universe: Sensitive Klegg!
Courtesy of Rob Williams and D'Israeli, it's the heart-wrenching, teeth-clencing, bone-breaking, scale-scraping, hyper-educated tale of "Undercover Klegg"!
>>80821464
For those who don't know, the Klegg are a race of brutal and brutish reptilian alien mercenaries who also control a vast conquering empire. They live by the claw and fang, the slicey and dicey, and the only thing they enjoy more than cruelly ripping their enemies apart with their razor-sharp teeth is singing about it.

Thanks for the bump.
Go back to your 800th Marvel film thread, faggot.
>>80821711
Well... that might be a problem.
>>80821762
Would you be so lucky, Joe.
>>80821830
>>80821557
Shit what's happened to D'Israeli's art? Look at Dredd's weirdly squashed head! I usedta love this guy! Will still read though, thanks OP, sorry for the extremely churlish complaint
>>80821875
>>80821927
This page.
This goddamn page right here.
>>80821916
I actually love it to bits. It's clear he's going for full cartoony over here, rather than the more subdued style of Low Life or the high contrast horror of Stickleback, and I think it fits the story flawlessly. Case in point: This. Fucking. Page.
>>80821997
>>80822055
>>80822101
>>80822170
>>80821751
What he said.
>>80821997 Yeah man "my bad" as they say, I totally get it now, I love "cartoony" artwork, all those characters in the first panel?, godlike. Seriously only made the first comment 'cause Dredd's head looked so weird.
You ever read Lazarus Churchyard and the steampunk martian-invasion comic (the first one, not the sequel), that was fucking great. Red-something? With the Colonel-type and the hard as nails Scottish butler?
Haven't read 2000ad for ages, stopped collecting in about 2004, I think? Is it...is it actually getting GOOD, again?!
>>80822252
>>80822253
Fuck yeah, Scarlet Traces! Good news, chum: it's coming back. Soon.
As for 2000AD, it's going through a bit of a new Golden Age. Wagner comes back a dozen or so times per year to do really strong Dredd, and meanwhile a bunch of very good writers (Al Ewing, Michael Carroll, Rob Williams, Ian Edginton) do one-offs and such. Pat Mills is still as crazy as ever. Dan Abnett is spreading his wings and doing stuff other than Sinister Dexter. And there's a host of new series like The Order and Grey Area that are all kinds of great. There are a few stinkers here and there, but overall it's a much, much healthier book than it was in the early 2000s.
>>80822376
(To be honest, I'm not the biggest fan of Rob Williams' work on Dredd, but when he's writing comedy like in this story he's on like nobody's business)
>>80822540
>>80822586
>>80822376
FUCK YEAH< Scarlet Traces! Loved that, man! That reveal....sheeit....
Thanks for the info, looks like I'll have to pick up an issue this week or next....is The Megazine still on the go? Gawd, when I was a kid there was SO MUCH 2000ad product, you had your Best of dredd Monthlies, Best of 2000ad monthly (which were divided by character), your Summer and Winter specials, obviously the weekly, then the Megazine came along...Golden Age, man, Golden Age...(I used to love the Rogue Trooper monthlies the best, all dat Kennedy, Wilson, Ewins and Gibbons...fucking gold, mate!). Thanks again for the storytime pal!
>>80822622
Stick around for the catastrophic conclusion, earthlets!
>>80822686
>Tasty Chief Judge
Well... he's not wrong...
>>80822683
Yup, Megazine is still going strong! They're also doing something pretty smart: bagging a small "mini-trade" with each issue of the Megazine, reprinting rare and small stuff that doesn't warrant a full TPB. XTNCT, Tyranny Rex, Strontium Dogs, that sort of stuff. Hell of a way to bring back some old favorites!
And speaking of old favorites... from one Rogue Trooper fan to another, 2011's Christmas Prog had a very, very special treat. An all-new Rogue Trooper story...written by Gerry Finlay-Day.
>>80822763
Whoops, forgot the page! HowDreddful!
>>80822763
Holy shit that Megazine thing is so cool.
I always thought Gerry Findlay-Day was a pseudonym? Or am I getting mixed up? Thanks for bringing some joy to an old Earthlet!
>>80822812
>>80822865
>>80822865
My pleasure! And nah, that was totally his actual name. Wrote Disaster: 1980 too, with good ol' Bill Savage (who also returned to the progs recently), and the glorious Fiends of the Eastern Front, which had a sequel drawn by Colin MacNeil in the megazine.
>>80822939
N-NO! Not the singing! NOT THE SINGING!
>>80822990
Nooooooooooo!!!
>>80823032
And mercifully, all's well that ends well for all parties involved.
Don't you just love a happy ending, earthlets?
Bump
>>80823085
This was a fine romp despite Hershey occasionally looking like Moe.
>>80824692
I have no idea what you're talking about, ya knucklehead.
>>80821557
>That Dredd
I'm out, and I love Dredd, this is the first time I've ever seen one that put me off right away.
>>80824374
this can't be fucking real
Reading bump.
Thanks for the storytime, Judge.
>>80825092
It is similar to some of the early helmet designs, albeit accidentally.
>>80821711
Man, I like Dredd, but I'm really having trouble getting into this art style.
Don't know when I'll ever use this but I had to save it.
>>80826063
Such glorious reaction faces.
>>80825929
Belay that whining. I'd never read this comical of a dredd story. Thanks for sharing OP
>>80821997
>>80826156
>>80825627
My pleasure, citizens. Glad you enjoyed it.
KLEGG-BUMP!
>>80825785
It's real. It's from one of the earliest Dredd stories.
Every old character left wingers write to be satire always ends up being correct in the long run. Wagner himself today admits that he wishes Dredd was in our world to pound punks.
>>80827976
Punks on his side of an argument. Though he insists they're bastards. I don't think he'd wish them upon us.
>>80822540
"Shoot the klegg then himself, no one would ever know"
haha
>>80821875
>Tired and emotional
Haha, classic British Injoke
>>80829899
>Tired and emotional
>The phrase tired and emotional is a chiefly British euphemism for alcohol intoxication (or drunkenness). It was popularised by the British satirical magazine Private Eye in 1967 after being used in a spoof diplomatic memo to describe the state of Labour Cabinet minister George Brown,[1] but is now used as a stock phrase. The restraints of the parliamentary language also mean it is unacceptable in the House of Commons to accuse an MP of being drunk, but one may use this or other euphemisms such as not quite himself and overwrought. The Guardian describes the phrase as having joined those "that are part of every journalist's vocabulary."[2] Because of this widespread interpretation, one source cautions professional British journalists against its use as "even if the journalist meant it literally," it could be considered defamatory.
Last time the Kleggs showed up they'd soft-retconned them into being Badass Aliums and pretended the ones employed by Cal >>80827646
were mercenary rejects, it was back when 2000AD was trying to be all warhammer 40k lite, I guess they've gone back to the origins while still keeping the Kleggs as a credible threat.
Also the Kleggs were allies of Sino cit, I guess someone half remembered that to make the location of the talks there
>>80829297

>>80822376
what was the worst stuff of 2015
>>80835796
Survival Geeks. By God, Survival Geeks. And it's actually coming back next week.
And in Dredd, I'd say Enceladus: New Life. Lovely art, nice build up, absolutely fucking bullshit ending.
I really love Dredd and I got Case files 01 and i loved it. Had a problem finding 02 but found one at 35 on amazon. Worth it or should i just save my 35 for when Cursed Earth Uncensored comes out?
>>80836075
Kinda worth it, because it also has The Day The Law Died. But Uncensored is also gonna be in much higher quality paper and with the restored color pages, so basically, it boils down to wether you'd like the best possible version of one story or acceptable versions of two in one book.
I am gonna get so much use out of this

What the fuck happened to Hershey, she looks like one of the three stooges.
>>80836511
Awful art style and she's actually like 60 now.

>Dredd in the last panel
>>80821599
The bumpy! The Umpty!
>>80821711
That is the dopiest looking motorcycle I think I've ever seen. It looks like he's riding Walter attached to a box car.
>>80823032
Jesus Tittyfucking Christ, he drew Dredd literally frothing at the mouth.
The absolute madman!
>>80835632
Circle panel!!!
That old school
>>80835796
The return of Bad Company, never has a classic series been so painfully mangled
>>80835632
that makes me wonder:
would Dredd ever hurt a child?
he sure doesn't mind beating teenagers
>>80839611
If the child was breaking the law, but he'd use minimum necessary force. This is why day sticks were invented.
>>80835846
i really liked survival geeks...
i mean its no bec and kawl but its still fun
>>80839687
has Dredd ever fought evil girl-scouts? I can see that happening
>>80836537
pretty sure a lot of judges take anti ageing pills to make themselves look younger.
>>80822253
Dude your timing bites 2000ad has been consistently at least good since 2005. It is absolutely killing it right now after a brief dip at the end of last year.
>>80839817
kind of
>>80839889
come on! tell me more anon I am interested!
>>80835514
I want good things to happen to this Klegg.
>>80839414
there were a few good bits in that at least.
like ienjoy how thrax became a main character instead of a supporting one.
>>80839951
it was boy scouts during a mission in the cursed earth, i think some got comically blown up
>>80839878
I would not contest that,friend. Just got sick of so many shitty Sinister Dexter stories and terrible "comedy" comics that actually made Big Dave look like Oscar fucking Wilde. And I hated that Shikara or whatever it was called. Pointless, the most pointless story ever.
>>80835578
>that Fergee action figure
Perfect
>>80840054
The art was solid all grant you that but...
HOW IS THRAX NOT DEAD! HE DIED! ON PANEL!! I MEAN COME ON, I KNOW IT'S COMICS BUT SERIOUSLY IF YOUR GOING TO PULL THAT SHIT AT LEAST TRY AND justify IT.
Ahem, sorry. It really didn't do it for me
>>80839611
I was a bit surprised he used Stun rounds in the movie on the two kids.
>>80840387
I'm with you on Sinisterly Dexter, never understood why they kept coming back. Going to have to respectfully disagree with you on Shakara.
Fortunately the church of thrillpower is a broad one with room for squax of every taste.
>>80841024
nah i get'cha.
honestly the thing that pissed me off most is what the fuck happend to Mac? He was one of my faves and then he just dropped off at the end of book 2.
Oh nad Tommy and Flytrap, how they still alive?
Loving Dredd right now, but I can't help wondering what I'm supposed to read once I finish the current case files. I'm a total completest, but I just can't wait for the long ass case files release schedule. What do I pick up next to make sure I'm still reading everything?
yo so who we expecting wagner to kill?
Last time he killed a major was like 2010 when he killed feral (In possibly the worst work he's ever written), but i doubt he's gonna kill anymore sd characters without Grant.
so that leaves Dredd, its major so no Gunderson or Giant, probably somthing more like Hershey, Walter or Judge death. Or even Anderson again for like the fifth time.
>>80842157
I'm also pretty sure humanity didn't win the Krool war. Danny may have stopped the them wiping everyone out by subverting the Krool Heart but with Earth and Aarrat destroyed they don't have much of a long term future.
And don't even get me started on Golgotha Joe, how Kano can be walking around full of holes and why the government would even give Bad Company retirement benefits, aren't they technically desserters?
>>80842377
You won't get everything, only big arcs like the pit and origins get their own trade. Unless you want to pick up back issues which actually have some great non-Dredd stories and are fairly cheap... So yeah back issues do that either physical from eBay or digital from the 2000 ad website.
>>80842521
Golgotha Joe divides me, on one part i liked him and thought it was a lovely brett tribute, on the other the build up to the secret informant had me so stoked to see the return of Mac, or even De Racine considering we never actually saw him die, but no.
The hole thing confused me considering we clearly seen Kano bled before.
The benefits thing could have been just a ploy to be seen good in the eyes of the public so ill let tha pass.
>>80823085
"I am Chief Judge Hershey and this is my rape face."
>>80842377
The good news is you will probably never read every Dredd comic. 2000AD puts out a new strip every week, Megazine every month. There were two DC series, the IDW ongoings and limited series, the movie verse strips and then there is the newspaper strips.
>>80841191
Very true, friend. I bought (well, was bought by my Gran, who always ought me at least 5 comics every weekend when I stayed there) my first 2000AD in '85, didn't collect but got it frequently, probably started collecting in about '87, got hundreds of Toothy's in my attic. So I've seen a few cycles of great to mediocre and back again. It's such a blessing for nonscrots that so much of the classic stuff has been reprinted. The best of 2000AD is up there with the best comics ever....you can see why the Big Two poached so much of "our" talent.
One love mang this thread has seriously inspired me to start buying Toothy and the Megazine again!
>>80821557
Is that croc meant to be Bruce Forsyth?
>>80839847
Stookie pills are illegal in Mega-City 1, Anon.
>>80844835
GLANDER SCUM!
That little arc (drawn by Ian Gibson, I believe) was SO GOOD, when he rescues all those Stookies from the factory farm...thinking about it, it seems fairly blatant with the comics history I know now but the Stookies seem to me VERY heavily influenced (in design and general demeanor) by the Smoo's from whatsisface--Lil' Abner. Anyone seen a credible source for this anywhere? Seems fairly blatant, now. Anyway, great to see the compassionate side of Dredd.
>>80844957
I require pictures of the Klegg Queen. Has she appeared, by the way, in any other issues?
>>80844567
Thing is you probably will be able to soon, a shit ton is collected and is still being collected.
>>80846610
nah senpai first appearence
>>80847409
I need fanart. There is not enough scalie ladies in comics or anything at all except Blazing Dragons.
>>80846610
Fuck me that's a hard question....I have a very vague memory of an appearance in the Judge Child Quest (?!!?!!??) for some reason...I have a weird memory as her portrayed almost like a sort of disinterested, semi-housewife-type personality, if that makes any sense to you mate....leave it with me por familia and I shall think more on this /co/mrade
>>80835422
I met Chris Weston at Thought Bubble last year, God his portfolio was outstanding...he was working on a sketch for a punter, head down, dude looked like a kind of nervous asocial-type (the punter, not Weston) so zero conversation was happening. So, observing non-rude/invasive social protocol I craned my head forward slightly, he still hadn't noticed me, and just said: "Crazy Larry Little Mo!". Chris looked up at me, blinked and with a smile on his face said: "bloody hell! You're a bit old school, aren't ya?!" I said, "well, not quite Class of '77, but, yeah, I probably AM pretty old school! Thanks for all the years of absolutely beautiful comics!" He very humbly said you're very welcome mate, it's nice to meet you, what's your name?", stuck out his hand and I shook it as I told him. Quickly congratulated him on a particularly lusciously-rendered Winwood & Cord arc then said my goodbyes. Btw for any nonscrots "Crazy Barry, Little Mo" was Weston's first Dredd story and (very possibly, although I think he may have done a Future Shock before?) his first pro job.
>tfw when one of the absolute finest "second wave" Toothy artists calls you old school
>>80821660
Don't mean to sound like a racist cunt but the caption in panel 5 made me fucking crack up:
>lifestyle of a small touring funk band
>surrounded by thirsty fat(ties) white chicks
>>80841191
Just found Shakara very "one note" and I always vacillated wildly between liking Henry Flint's work and fucking hating it, for some reason, usually depending on which character he was working on.
>>80847979
Weston is definitely awesome, yeah. There's one guy who can't do wrong in my eyes.
>>80842377
Once you finish the Case Files, you can start working your way up the collected TPBs. I'd suggest going Origins -> Tour of Duty -> Day of Chaos -> Trifecta, and then you can start reading the progs.
>>80842487
It's worth noting that Wagner never specified it was a Dredd character, so he could have been talking about Middenface McNulty over at Strontium Dog. But yeah, the pessimist in me says Hershey might not survive the year...
>>80848229
>Once you finish the Case Files, you can start working your way up the collected TPBs. I'd suggest going Origins -> Tour of Duty -> Day of Chaos -> Trifecta, and then you can start reading the progs.
Not the one you responding to but I'm the guy doing storytime (day of chaos, lawless, undercover), just for you know where I'm coming from.
The think I like about Dredd is the fact I was able to start with a new story (prog 1900) and still able to enjoying it. Now I'm reading the complete case files and the TPB. Dredd is probably the comics with the easiest entry point. It was delightful compare to DC and Marvel
>>80848451
You're doing God's work! And yeah, absolutely. It looks daunting as fuck because, well, nearly 40 years of nonstop publication, but because the premise is so simple, most stories are one-offs and the writers are (usually) really good at filling in the blanks, it's much, much easier to get into than it sounds.
And man, prog 1900... Block Judge was SUCH a good fucking story. Would love to get that collected.
>>80847979
k, i'll see you back on this thread in the morning.
>>80847979
>>80848612
There were no Kleggs in The Judge Child Quest, but there was MURD THE OPPRESSOR! NECROMANCER OF NECROS! LORD OF DARKNESS! KEEPER OF THE SACRED TOAD! Who... kinda has a bit of a reptilian thing going on.
>>80848686
And for alien housewives, there was this bit of an ad break during the War Planet section of the story.
The Klegg Queen, as far as I can remember, had never appeared before this story.
>>80848530
The block judje was good but the drawing where a bit hard to get use to when the only thing you know about the dredd comics is the cover from the prog. Clad I gave it a try. Now I'm a digital suscriber And I buyed a shit lot of books when I was on vacation in London.
Was wondering, I remenber reading a Dredd story where he face a devil entity. It's wrote in rhyme or like a poem but can't find it again. By any chance do you know which issue it was ?
>>80848848
Yes, you're talking about Beat the Devil, which was actually in an annual. And which I shall now proceed to storytime because it is AWESOME.
>>80849027
(And in a fun twist of fate, is drawn by the same guy who drew Block Judge and co-created Dredd himself, the ineffable Carlos Ezquerra)
>>80849051
>>80849027
Not sure it's legal to thank you for storytime but thanks anyway
>>80849069
>>80849084
>>80848728
ty. also oh god they're hideous
>>80849118
>>80849148
The best part is, there's actually a sequel to this story, and Satan and his cell appeared in a novel and in a horror one-off in the Megazine. So Dredd punching the shit out of the Devil and locking him up is SUPER canon.
>>80849251
Dammit 4chan, don't eat my page!
>>80823032
Who's the brown judge in the background there?
>>80849737
Accountant Judge Maitland, who was introduced right after Day of Chaos.
>>80849799
Did you recently storytime Bolland's Judge Dredd? Do you have download link to that?
>>80850062
Not me, a nice anon storytimed the first Dark Judges stories. There is a decent lot of Bolland Dredd stories, actually.
>>80850150
Do you have link? :/
Also what else do you recommend if I want to get into Judge Dredd? I asked Bolland because I really love his work.
>>80850256
Bolland's work is actually a pretty good place to start. Particularly, "Judge Death" and "Judge Death Lives". I'd recommend getting a torrent for the Judge Dredd Case Files, especially vol 3, which has a lot of Bolland goodness in it. You can find it pretty easily.
>>80849799
She's looking much more cute accountant there, and less two fisted lawbringer.
>>80850374
It's all in the helmet. Or the lack of it!
>>80850372
Thanks Judge Anon
>>80850593
My pleasure. Sorry I can't be of more help. Let me at least post a little bit of Bolland Dredd for goodness' sake.
>>80849305
Hoho I remember this great little story..alsothose little, qiet one offs where Dredd wouldn't be in it save for one or two panels, quiet, introspective little character studies, I used to love those...thinking in particular of the mini-masterpiece "John Cassavettes Is Dead", just a triumph of the form...and from the same team who later brought us the unimpeachable "America".
>>80850372
I won this terrible Bolland horror anthology as part of a job lot on eBay...one of those QC comics...urgh, some really awful shit. Not his "A" game by any means....and that looks fuck-all like Bridgette Bardot, it hasta be said.
>>80850682
>>80850698
>>80850696
Yeah, those short one-offs are always great. One of my favorites is "Alone in a Crowd", the Steve Dillon one. Think I'll storytime that one next.
>>80850753
>>80850779
>>80850822
>>80850753
Recap in one sentence? Name rings a bell...no worries if ya just wanna storytime it though mate, you're doing God's work. Haven't read the Jack the Ripper Bolland Dredd for ages (wasn't there ANOTHER one with jack the ripper illustrated by the great Jose Ortiz? Where he time travels or something? Mebbe getting confused with this one...there WAS deffo another Ripper story, though...)
And now...
>>80850903
>>80850871
Can't recall a second Ripper story, though there was that one alternate universe story where Dredd was a police constable.
>>80850950
>>80850977
>>80851001
Just another day in the office!
>>80850950
Oh yeah, remember this! Classic Dillon...I mean,fuck, look at these pages! Fucking "sameface Dillon" meme irritates the shit outta me...no-one can deny he phones it in sometimes now but when it comes to clear storytelling Dillon is way up there, never any confusion at what's going on or who's doing what to who etc...dat Orlok arc (preamble to the Apocalypse War where he poisons the water and kills Judge Giant) is some stellar Steve Dillon. Fuck the /co/ hivemind, seriously! And thanks again most non-grexnix of /co/mrades!
>>80851306
The pleasure is all mine! Always awesome to meet a fellow squaxx dek thargo.
>>80851554

Thank you so much!!! Am I having a weird brainfart, I coulda sworn this artist is Bellardinelli Snr.....
>>80852851
>>80852814
I don't think Belardinelli ever worked on Dredd, far as I can recall.
>>80852903
>Fantastic stuff!
>>80852814
Hhm maybe I am having a brainfart then...same guy who drew Ace Trucking, yeah, then his son followed him into the biz and drew very, very similarly...or was it Casanovas who followed in his dad's footsteps? I confused now mang gettin' old isn't fun until you can shit yourself in public
>>80853140
Yeah, and Dan Dare, with the fucking Biogs. Crazy shit!
>>80853429
Wow never seen that dope splash! Welp, it's hella late and i'm tired, hope this thread's still here tomorra mate, it's genuinely been a pleasure! And an inspiration! I hope we can "speak" again, good sir! TTFN!
>>80853619
Be seeing you, pal!
>>80853846
Later, friendo! And on a sad note...Brett Ewins, RIP, you were one of the greats, buddy

Still disappointed we didn't get a full Helltrekkers story on Sensitive's run.
>>80852933
An entire issue on one microfilm slug! The fiends!
Hmm, wonder what resolution they're scanning them at? My 2000AD folder is currently running at 17.6GB.

Its one of the classic "freak of the week" old school Dredds, Im still waiting for this copy to land in my postbox so thanks Judge Anon.
Ive laughed like a drain through this whole storyline, and the artwork has suited it great.
Seeing Dredd finally flip his shit was worth it.
Oh and the magazine and megazine are both going through a pretty good patch for the last couple of years, well worth dipping back into if you havent read for a while.
>>80858951
Aciiiiiiiiiid Archie.
>>80839414
Was a little disappointing, no reason to exhume them for that story.
Im not a huge fan of sinister/dexter or the Kingdom stories either.
Just tolerating the ABC warriors at the moment because the "flashback" part of this series probably handy for newchums
>>80844957
Which led to one of the all time great Dredd lines.
"I dont see anyone getting younger chewing on Dredds glands" (not sure if thats 100% accurate)

Wot next? The Continuing Adventures of Halo Jones.

I like Kingdom for the most part, could be better paced, moves quite slowly for a 2000ad strip.
That's the beauty of the anthology format, whatever your taste there is always something to enjoy
Thhis thread need more Anderson
You can never have too much Anderson
Great stuff. I need to get into these threads more often.
>>80860976
in the future we will have neither underwear nor socks!
>>80861088
Enjoy your beating citizen knowing the judges are naked under their outfits
>>80860703
Get off the tubesss, brother, you're hogging all the bandwidth.
>>80860948
Word up.
>>80859098
I like Kingdom, but it's really just an action and gore strip, there's not really much else to it. Shallow but fun.
>>80859136
>tfw Gaiman talks in the Future Shock documentary about Alan Moore telling him and Dave McKean what was gonna happen in the other 6 books of Halo Jones and it made Gaiman cry
Goddammit...
>>80834534
Actually...pretty sure I remember a Daily Star Dredd where Dredd arrested someone for bad taste as "it's my comic, I decide what the crime is, creep."
>>80839847
Re-juve is a thing though. It doesn't stop aging completely and it's incredibly expensive, but it's legal and used by high value Justice Department personnel.

Feels like he's wearing nothing at all!

She got a ripley vibe
What form of government does Mega City One technically have? It seems like a qualitatively new form of government to me that doesn't neatly fit into anything previously tried.
>>80863888
Police state? What's the technical term for this? Juris(ty)-cracy?
>>80863888
>>80864056
100% police state.
>>80864056
They had a movement to reinstate elected officials. The judges crushed it.
By the way, did Anderson's possible romance with wossface, the blind psi-Judge go anywhere?
>>80863888
There are some vestages of democracy, an elected Mayor and block councils but they are entirely cosmetic wielding no real power. For example for many years the elected mayor was an orangutan and no one cared.
Most of the acutal administration is left to incorruptible machines with Justice department having final say on all desicions.
>>80865223
Shakta? Nope.
>>80865980
are judges even allowed to marry and have kids?
>>80866143
Nope, they can quit and settle down but otherwise unjudicial liaison gets you 20 years on Titan
>>80862431
not what i meant, the anti aging pills were mentioned in an anderson story, i think it was the Half Life one with Ranson art.
>>80866143
depends on the class, think PSI's can for sure.
>>80866351
can get you in trouble and maybe demoted, but not 20 years, read up on Ferd Plaski
