I can’t remember where I read it, but somebody once wrote somewhere that that was really the apex of Ditko’s run instead of The Final Chapter, because that story just puts all the Bugle characters in a room and then their personalities drive the whole plot. Jonah initially dismisses Smythe before Peter’s hubris lands him in a world of poo poo.

Bruceski posted:What city has fourty game show hosts to be killed in the first place? Forty? Dredd gets on the case because there's four hundred missing. And this is a few months after the city has had it's population almost literally decimated by a war that flattened it and killed hundreds of millions of residents. So it's yet another way that Megacity-1 is a nightmare dystopia.

After the Apocalypse War, 2 T (fru) T, and wasn't Mega City 2 wiped out completely by demons and zombies at some point, how do they have enough people left to rebuild an entire Mega City?

Nobody has jobs, it's basically all they have time to do. Also every single part of the city is overpopulated, so if you destroy 2/3rds of the city [Which is about what we are up to at this point] the 1/3rd that is left is still massively overpopulated.

I haven't read any Dredd more recent than the mid-90's but I assume that these days the entire population of Megacity 1 just make videos for future YouTube and comment on each other's MegaInstagram.

Mega-City One is so overpopulated that there are people who live in constantly moving vehicles because there's not even room for them to stop.

Two if my favourite bits from classic Dredd are a view of a school. And inside the teacher is trying to teach kids how to be unemployed. "Pay attention son! In the future this could be important to you." The kid doesn't listen. Fast forward to the kid as an adult and he is working three jobs. (A model in the morning, a waiter in the evening and a mattress tester at night.) The story ends with Dredd busting him for the crime of holding multiple jobs. By holding three jobs he has prevented two citizens getting work. If only he had listened in school.

That makes me think of the Subway system for the Underground Kingdom in Zork Grand Inquistor: Due to budget cuts, the subway itself has no breaks and literally runs 24/7, and the way you get on and off is by a padded hand basically clotheslining you in and out of the cart. Wonder if that is how people get back on those mobile homes in Dredd. Unlucky7 fucked around with this message at 01:49 on Jan 31, 2018 |

The second one is a dude getting cheeky after a facial reconstruction only to find out Dredd's bike ID'ed his voiceprint.

I just remember a Dredd story where he called out to a random passerby to halt. The dude immediately freaks out and tries to run, causing no small amount of property damage in the process. Of course Dredd catches him and reads him the riot act for all the damage he caused while fleeing, and just before he hauls him off to jail, hands him his wallet that he dropped because Dredd was trying to return it.
