With her powerful psychic abilities and irreverent wit, Judge Anderson is one of 2000 AD’s biggest characters – the perfect foil for Judge Dredd since her debut in 1981 but so popular she soon broke out into her own series. Rebellion and Hiya Toys are proud to unveil the latest in the brand new range of 1:18 PVC action figures based on the world of Judge Dredd, from the pages of the bestselling comic British comic, 2000 AD!
With strong line-work from Arthur Ranson, which confidently covers everything from sprawling future cities to images that could be pulled from Dante’s Divine Comedy, and strong character work from Grant, the slight gaps in plot can be forgiven – and tidied up – in later editions.Īuthors: Alan Grant and Arthur Ranson Length: 196 pages Publisher: Rebellion/2000AD RRP: £15.Even a psychic cop who can ride the astral plane has to get from A to B – the twin-pack of Judge Cassandra Anderson and the formidable Lawmaster bike are joining the new line of Judge Dredd figures from Hiya Toys. Being more of a ‘Best of’, rather than a complete run of stories, allows for plots to be skipped in order to get to the action (almost like fast forwarding the ‘talky’ bits in a film to get to the epic battle at the end), but even without any character development that would have been built through a number of back stories, there is still enough on offer to get a sense of the world that Anderson exists within.Īnderson was created with the intent of being Judge Dredd’s moral opposite but to also allow for dips into the supernatural, something that Alan Grant is clearly keen to embrace. Unlike the collected works of Judge Dredd, which run chronologically, this collection dips in and out of a number of ongoing narratives and references to previous – and as yet unprinted – stories can prove frustrating but not enough to ruin the overall flow of the individual stories.
