I'm reading Case Files 1 and this shit is goofy as fuck. Dude fights fucking King Kong
>>150545877Imagine standing over that platform, jerking off, and cumming onto King Kong's extended tongue.
>>150545877Yes, it does. You've learned that Judge Dredd does have a sense of humour and there are plenty of comedy stories in the run. It's emphatically not 40k, it isn't all grimdark all the time.
>>150545877well due to the nature of mega cities, everything that can happen does happen eventually. Theres godzilla-like monsters too
>>150545877Dredd's got alot of outright silly stuff going on in it. There was a comic somewhat recently that featured an old gag- the Simps.
>>150545877Apes used to bring in readers. Boomers loved apes in their comics
>>150545919>It's emphatically not 40k, it isn't all grimdark all the time.40k is an inherently goofy setting.
>>150545877that robot monkey was breaking the law
>>150546280How do you arrest a giant ape?
>>150546570You crawl inside his ass and tickle his prostate until he gives up.
>>150545994>the simpsHershey's fanclub?
The 90s did much to make people think Dredd should be 100% serious.
>>150545994It’s a solid read.
meh
>>150547597its really just the two movies, for example people hate the comedy in the stallone movie (ignore helmet autism) and pretend its supposed to be alll serious and comedy made it worse. then Dredd is a grimdark parody played totally straight and made people expect the comics are like that.
>>150549876I like the goofy 90s one more for the entertainment it provides. It’s a fun watch.
>>150545877>>150545994Last /dredd thredd/ had a bunch of ape stories, if you wanna see how wacky it can get.https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/149625701/
>>150551124I love the way the judges spacesuits look.
>>150545877Dredd is half grimdark/half goofy as fuck. Typical 2000ad-fare.
>>150551299I wish the rest of 2000AD could hold up to Dredd. I want to like Rogue Trooper, but I can’t get into it.
>>150551319Rogue Trooper is alright, but it's more tonally consistent with some storylines being more goofy, like Fortress Europa; however, after Rogue leaves Nu-earth, it loses the plot, and you can just stop reading
>>150551470I think you can get up to the peace treaty signing and pretend the next dumb plot extender didn't happen.
>>150551470I’ll give the trades a try.
>>150551583I just felt killing the entire team so their chips again was dumb and didn't ad anything interesting to the story,
>>150551731Maybe the movie will be good.
>>150551944Maybe Duncan Jones has a rather mixed Filmography at this point but i don't think it will be a massive trainwreck at least
>>150551964At least the cast seems good.
>>150545877Just wait till you get to the part where he fights nazi warplanes from WWII.
>>150546111It was goofy for 1st edition and small hints of humor got removed over timeI blame tau
>>150545877Not going to lie, I opened this thread cause there was a ape and a motorcycle in OP. Didn't even register that it was a Judge Dredd thread till I opened it.
>>150552628Bullshit. The title is the most prominent element in that pic.
>>150552291That’s not even GW material.
>>150545877So Dredd actually takes off his helmet in the comics>mfw you're so ugly people want you to die
>>150554222He has lots of times, they just never show his true face. They do show his dad though and he looks the same most likely, but older and more fucked up.
>>150552628It's not like Judge Dredd lacks Apes outside of DC, they probably have the most
>>150552628It’s says Judge Dredd right in it.
>>150554222It's funny that it is clearly Sylvester Stallone.
>>150555806He has a few cameos.
>>150551081I agree honestly every scene with judges and showing the internal court happenings is kino as fuck.
>>150556285Judge Griffin is a more realistic Cal.
>>150545994Are you talking about the de-Simping programing? That ending was dark.
>>150557288The simps are one of the best parts of that world.
Dedd
>>150551319The movie will right this.
>>150559813Thredd
>>150553605Reading is for fags
>>150563181I can't read :(
>>150563181no
>>150546601Simps are people that dress like clowns and in outrageous costumes and clothing for attention due to how dehumanizing and full life was in Mega City 1 (as robots do all manual labor and the hulk of the city being on UBI/welfare).
>>150565898"The Simping Detective" is a good primer on the subject. It is one of Simon Spurrier's best works.
>>150565771I love the shorts. One page Dredds must have been such a treat to see in an actual newspaper.
