And once they find out just who Vienna is and what family she’s part of, she becomes a valuable target, dragging Dredd and Rico and Vienna into a tale of Sov revenge. Specifically, estranged niece Vienna, who’s got herself into a Tri-D show doing some borderline sleazy vid-shows (Her catchphrase, “Heavens, I’ve never seen one like that before!” and her feedback from the director, “More oomph, extra jiggle.”) Andrew Currie art from Blood TrailsĪs we follow Dredd on cases and Vienna with her job, a new suitor turns up, not a nice one either, with connections right at the heart of the Sovs. So, straight into it… after one of those ridiculous (but enjoyable) things by Gordon Rennie and Karl Richardson where Dredd is in charge of overseeing a rock band wanting to put on a gig in the Cursed Earth – which goes about as well as you’d expect, it’s into the first of the big tales, Blood Trails, again by Rennie, with art by Andrew Currie. But that really doesn’t scan as well now, does it? What is it they say? All killer, no filler? Well, okay, mostly killer, a little filler. Sure, every one of these Case Files has something good in it, but this one seems to be eminently readable. As for the Megazine tales, it’s dominated by the 4-part ‘Monsterus Mashinashuns of PJ Maybe’.Īnd all in all, it’s a damn fine collection here. With this one, it’s a couple of major 2000 AD storylines, ‘Blood Trails’ and ‘Mandroid’, 10 and 12 parts respectively, with three one and two-parters in between. Sometimes these Case Files are made up of a load of short Dredds, sometimes it’s got a bigger tale in there.
