{"product_id":"9781837869107","title":"Judge Dredd: Compact Crimes 2","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e: John Wagner has been scripting for  2000 AD for more years than he cares to remember. His creations include  Judge Dredd,  Strontium Dog,  Ace Trucking,  Al's Baby,  Button Man and  Mean Machine. Outside of  2000 AD his credits include  Star Wars,  Lobo,  The Punisher and the critically acclaimed,  A History of Violence.  Pat Mills is the creator and first editor of  2000 AD. He developed  Judge Dredd and is the writer-creator of many of  2000 AD's most popular stories such as  Sláine,  Nemesis and  A.B.C. Warriors.  Amongst his credits are  Marshal Law (Marvel and DC Comics), co-created with Kevin O'Neill, the French graphic novel series,  Requiem, Vampire Knight with artist Olivier Ledroit,  and Be Pure! Be Vigilant! Behave! The Secret History of 2000 AD and Judge Dredd. His characters all spiky lines and outsized boots, Mick McMahon - sometimes known as Mike - co-created perennial  2000 AD favourites  The V.C.s, and provided Tharg with many classic episodes of  Judge Dredd,  Ro-Busters,  A.B.C. Warriors and  Sláine. Outside of the Galaxy's Greatest Comic, he drew an adventure with the original Cybermen for  Doctor Who Magazine; Sonic the Hedgehog for  Sonic the Comic; and, in America, issues of  Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight plus the mini-series  Tattered Banners and  The Last American, the latter co-created with John Wagner and Alan Grant.  Perhaps the most popular  2000 AD artist of all time, Brian Bolland's clean-line style and meticulous attention to detail ensure that his artwork on strips including,  Dan Dare,  Future Shocks,  Judge Dredd and  Walter the Wobot looks as fresh today as it did when first published. Co-creator of both Judge Anderson and the Kleggs, Bolland's highly detailed style unfortunately precluded him from doing many sequential strips -- although he found the time to pencil both  Camelot 3000 and  Batman: The Killing Joke for DC Comics.  Dave Gibbons is one of  2000 AD's most popular artists, having co-created  Harlem Heroes and  Rogue Trooper. He has also pencilled  A.B.C. Warriors,  Dan Dare,  Judge Dredd,  Mega-City One,  Ro-Busters,  Tharg the Mighty,  Tharg's Future Shocks and  Time Twisters, as well as having scripted several  Rogue Trooper stories - making Gibbons one of the few  2000 AD creators to have served as writer, artist and letterer!  Beyond  2000 AD, Gibbons is unquestionably best known for his work on the award-winning classic  Watchmen (with Alan Moore), but he has also drawn  Batman,  Doctor Who,  Give Me Liberty,  Green Lantern,  Superman,  Star Wars and his graphic novel,  The Originals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback | \u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 224 | \u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2027-02-23\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"2000 AD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48278742728930,"sku":"9781837869107","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0023\/0005\/1501\/files\/9781837869107.jpg?v=1787960893","url":"https:\/\/www.mangadeal.com\/products\/9781837869107","provider":"Manga Deal","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
