While the Ventriloquist is developing some mysterious plan during a theater play, Judge Dredd suddenly appears in the dimension of Gotham City demanding a man-to-man fight with the Batman. Still, it’s a pretty decent entertaining story with wonderful artwork. Only for the mesmerizing artwork, this a must-read story, but in the narrative is basically a standard “team-up” comic book adventure where the two heroes started arguing each other and later they make an uneasy alliance to fight the real villains. The most lethal menace that Mega-City One has ever faced, Judge Death fools Mean Machine to steal a dimensional-jump belt and the deadly judge escapes to Gotham City only to combine forces with The Scarecrow, and this is only the beginning of a high-octane adventure with the safety of two cities in the balance. So, Judge Anderson from Psi Division will have to play as an unorthodox “referee” to avoid that those two would kill each other, since their both cities are in grave danger. It’s really good that they live in different dimensions, because it would impossible for these two characters to co-exist in one single world. Judge Dredd imparts law to the streets of Mega-City One. Many people use to think of Law and Justice as two things that are basically the same, but in the practice you have to realize that while both concepts try to acomplish very similar goals, at the very bottom they can’t more different if we would be talking about day and night.īatman seeks to bring justice to the streets of Gotham City. The artwork by Simon Bisley is something that shocked your visual senses due the awesome use of color and effects on the final artwork. This was the epic first meeting of the America’s Most Popular Crimefigher with the Britain’s Most Popular Lawman. And I don’t like vigilantes!īatman: Is there any chance I could speak to someone with a little intelligence? Letterer: Todd Klein (because he is the best letterer in the business, so always it’s relevant to mention his presence)ĭredd: I’ll tell you something else. Main Cover to the TPB collection: Mike Mignola (used previously as the cover for Vendetta in Gotham) The overall rating is the average sum resulted of the ratings on each individual stories.
I was able to ge ton its original publications the prestige format comic books of “Vendetta in Gotham” and the two parts of “Die Laughing”, but since I wasn’t able to find the other stories collected in this hard cover TPB, I didn’t hesitate to buy it, and therefore, I used this edition (that indeed I have) to make the overall review of all stories presented here. The incarnations of Justice and Law meet… and it won’t be easy!
