5.0 out of 5 stars Great volume to add to the collection.

A great collection of stories that continues to deal with the aftermath of Day of Chaos and MC1's place in a word where it is no longer top dog; specifically MC1's relations with East Meg 2, and the consequences of Dredd's actions during the Apocalypse War.

One story 'War Buds' ties up a loose end that most Dredd fans probably didn't realise was flapping; what happened to the other members of the Apocalypse Squad that destroyed East Meg? Though that immediately raises another question - what the hell happened to Judge Ocks?

Stories from 2016-19 are collected together in this anthology. Dredd enters Siberia and is also at odds with fellow veterans of the Apocalypse War. Chilling but not classic, this includes War Buds by John Wagner which makes it a must-read for the Dredd enthusiast. Stunning artwork from various artists including Trevor Hairsine and Colin MacNeil.

3.0 out of 5 stars More 'filler' stories than a decent collection
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 April 2019

I have similar opinions of this as the review I left for 'Titan' collection, that is a direct forerunner to this.

It starts off pretty well and the opening art work is excellent (a subjective area, I fully acknowledge), but like 'Titan' the overall story of the collection doesn't hang together throughout. As I didn't read the weekly 'progs' that featured this I can't be sure it was really intended to be a cohesive story like other 2000AD epics, but with it being put out as a single edition, it has to be judged as one. Or at least comment be made about how it does hang together as a complete story.

A plot arc from 'Titan' starts this and I was hoping it would make the story of 'Titan' come together more for me, but it didn't. This plot arc is really just a catalyst and neither gets resolved with anything to make sense of what happened in 'Titan' or triggers anything of any real significance to drive this collection. I do suspect this was never written with the same single story in mind that the likes of 'Judgment Day' or 'The Black Hole' were as the later sections are only loosely related to one another, which only weakens this package somewhat and you should probably read it with that in mind. Or change your expectations if you were hoping it was going to be an 'epic' like the aforementioned.

This weaknening of it is made worse by the fact that that the story telling in these later sections isn't really that great either compared to the start or other 2000AD regulars. As with any weekly/ regular publication like 2000AD, you inevitably have 'filler' stories and 'Cold Wars' is clearly a collection of these (which 2000AD could be notoriously weak on I found in the 20 years I read it). As such, as a collection, it falls short and I am going to be a lot more cautious these days about what I buy from 2000AD that I have not previously read and want to own again.

3.0 out of 5 stars Solid but utterly unremarkable
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 23 November 2019

There is one word to sum up this volume - forgettable.

There isn’t anything terribly bad about any of the stories or art... in fact it’s always good to see Colin MacNeil’s artwork, and even a page of Barry Kitson’s early on. But the rest... It’s all just pretty dull. And that includes a story by Wagner about the members of the squad that nuked East Meg One.

I wanted to see what Dredd was like post Chaos Day... it doesn’t seem as if I’m missing too much based on this collection. A shame.
