Judge Dredd the Megazine #12

Colin MacNeil's painted cover for this October 1992 issue of Judge Dredd: The Megazine is a brooding, atmospheric piece — a massive robotic Judge looms center stage, arms folded across its armored chest, bathed in warm amber light against a backdrop of churning gears and mechanical complexity. The tagline "Trial by Machine Is Here!" sets a tense, foreboding tone that fits perfectly with the launch of "Mechanismo, Part 1," written by John Wagner with art, inks, and colors all by MacNeil. Bonus content sweetens the deal: this issue includes Part Three of the exclusive 1993 Judge Dredd Calendar, making it a nicely packed fortnightly package for fans of Mega-City One.
