Some great stories in this book. Well worth picking up
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 January 2022
None of the early 80s classic story’s but good enjoyable yarns and art
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 August 2021
This has to be one of the most distinctly average Case Files in some time. Unfortunately there is no significant story throughout - the Orlok storyline wraps up, but when you consider the history of the character, it’s is a very dull end. What is unique is this collection is that the Megazine stories are actually better than those in the main strip and includes what I found to be one of Garth Ennis’s best ever Dredd stories. Also the ‘Phartz’ story which has the dumbest premise (alien sentient farts) had me giggling like a 8 year-old.

Not terrible but just oh so underwhelming.

As you’re looking at Judge Dredd Case Files volume 37, you’re probably not here by accident and what you really want to know is, is it worth buying? Yes, if you’re a huge fan of meh, or need to read the disappointing ends of two disposable storylines and some grisly Dredd Year One ret-con.

I’m a lapsed Original Squaxx bingeing the post-millennium Dredd I missed via the Case Files, and I had to make a real effort to get through this one. It showcases video game house Rebellion’s third year as owner of the 2000AD IP, with a strong sense that they’ve humoured the old-school long enough and now it’s time for ch-ch-ch-changes. There’s a shift to a bigger “bullpen” of writers, more continual use of eight episode or longer “arcs”, and early signs of the Rebellion house-fetish for the Dredd clone bloodline and the Apocalypse War and its sad devotion to the grimdark-side.

Book 37 opens with the last nail in the coffin of the sputtering Sin City “arc” - the underwhelming, blink-and-you’ll-miss 2-part Trial of Orlok - then goes on to use four times the pagecount to end the more-millstone-than-milestone tale of the Chief Judge’s Man and concoct an 8-part literal and figurative horror-show centred on Dredd’s “niece” Vienna. My edition doesn’t clearly credit the Megazine material, but I know it includes Garth Ennis’s last work on Dredd for 2 decades, the meh “Monkey on My Back” revisionist grimdark prequel to the Judge Cal saga.

Script credits are still mostly John Wagner with Gordon Rennie, Robbie Morrison and Garth Ennis. The carousel of artists is an uneven mix of 2000AD legends and less familiar names.

If you’re here because you're “Dredd-curious”, or thanks to some algorithm-driven fluke, it might help to have some context.

Judge Joe Dredd first appeared over 45 years ago in long-running weekly UK comic 2000AD, and as of 2023 the latest Case Files reprints are a snapshot of the character as written 20 years ago.

Dredd is a heavily armed cop in a parody future, after an “atomic war”. The world’s urban spaces have been smushed into nation-scale “mega-cities”, surrounded by radioactive wastelands where life is cheap and mostly a mash-up of the Wild West, Planet of the Apes and Mad Max 2. In Mega-City One hundreds of millions of absurd, eccentric, alternative-lifestyle civilians are packed into super-high-rise buildings and constantly on the edge of an urban PTSD called “future shock”. All antisocial behaviour is a crime, and the Judges keep order thanks to the right to deliver on-the-spot and absurdly disproportionate sentences up to and including “standard execution”. The foundations of the Dredd-verse are stories with a mix of straight action and arrested-development 1970s punk and “heritage” English humour, which infuses the best of old school 2000AD content.

The source comics, 2000AD and Judge Dredd Megazine, passed through a mixed bag of editorial teams and corporate publishers and a drop in content quality as the UK kids’ comics market declined through the 1990s, before video game company Rebellion stepped in became what is now the longest-lasting hand on the tiller.

2000AD has always kept the old school format of a weekly UK anthology comic, with 5 or 6 stories from a catalogue of characters. Early Dredd stories were mostly 5 or 6 page “done-in-one” episodes, but from the off there’s also been a tradition of “epics”, long-form adventures that run for months. At first these were umbrellas that changed the background, left Mega-City One to cross the Cursed Earth or travel into outer space, but stuck to the done-in-one or done-in-two week individual story format. Later these sagas became “arcs”, mainly disaster movie soap operas, long-form stories that lend themselves to a profitable long tail in graphic novel reprints – hello, Judge Dredd Case Files!

Changes of publisher and editorial teams means the quality of 2000AD content ebbs and flows. Dredd rode this out better than most, with a long stretch of second wind after the peak of crazy energy in the earliest stories and the notorious depths of the Dark Times of the 1990s, but Case Files volume 37 hints strongly that the old-school hot streak is at an end.
