Judge Dredd: The Complete Case Files #14

Rebellion's 2009 hardcover collection brings together a compelling chapter of Judge Dredd history under Carlos Ezquerra's striking cover art, which presents the helmeted lawman of Mega-City One in a powerful close-up — his golden eagle shoulder pad gleaming, his Lawgiver pistol raised, and his trademark scowl radiating absolute authority. The volume gathers material including "Tale of the Dead Man, Part 1," with John Wagner at the writing helm. If you've been looking for a well-packaged way to experience this era of Dredd storytelling, this handsome Case Files volume is a fine place to start.
