Product Description
A plague which turns men into cannibals has attacked Mega-City Two. The city desperately needs a vaccine, but with the airports in the hands of the cannibals, the only route for Judge Dredd is by land - across the Cursed Earth, a 1000-mile stretch of smouldering atomic wasteland.

Ignore the premise, it makes no sense. In the post-apocalyptic future of Judge Dredd the population of America is divided between the east coast Mega City One, and the west coast's Mega City Two. Between them are the mutant-filled atomic wastes call the Cursed Earth. When a plague turns the people of Mega City Two in cannibal bezerkers Judge Dredd must cross the Cursed Earth with a supply of vaccine. Why can't they fly it over? Well the airports have fallen to plague men. Well they not paradrop it? Or land outside the city and walk over? Or just transmit how to make it? And why only send four men to guard the vaccine? And why does Dredd stop to fight robot vampires and Vegas gangsters while millions are dying and... and...
Never mind. It's not important. It's just an excuse to put Dredd in a Killdozer and send him out to fight dinosaurs, mutants, robots and whatever else Pat Mills throws at him. Cursed Earth was one of the first multipart Judge Dredd epics and, more than 30 years later, still holds up.
Legal issues mean this book cannot include some of the chapters like a war between Ronald McDonald and Burger King or an appearance of the Jolly Green Giant, but we still get a lot of cool Dredd stories. There's also a nice introduction explaining the role this story in Dredd's popularity. I still fondly remember my Killdozer/Land Raider toy.
It's a fun read and for me a nice bit of nostalgia.

If you are a fan off judge dredd, you wiil love this book, it has everything that makes dredd great.the art in this volume is excellent all the way thur,so is the story, it's too bad that two of the original stories that were published in england ,are not in here. but what makes this copy so special is it's size,27'cm x 23cm,so that the art is so big and bold, it jumps out at you!, these books were published by titan books and they are a wonder too hold in, one"s hands.
