There has been no more exciting news in all of comics so far this year than hearing that John Wagner has written a Judge Dredd story called 'Death of a Judge', with the extremely capable Mike Perkins on artwork.
I honestly don't think this will be the death of Judge Dredd story that has to happen sooner or later, (I've been expecting it for a while) but having Wagner write any Dredd is such a rare treat these days, and such a provocative title is already getting the thrillpower already pumping through my veins.
Luckily, while we're all waiting, Wagner is also telling his life story in a series of incredibly entertaining blog posts on his website, and I strongly recommend checking them out. His story of freelance life in castles and writing with mates in sheds are all well documented, but Wagner is giving a seriously new perspective on the old stories.
But there is still nothing I want to read more in all comics than 'Death of a Judge' right now. Nearly 50 years into the continuing adventures of Judge Joe Dredd, and it's still the greatest thrill in the galaxy.
