Judge Dredd Megazine is a monthly British comic magazine, launched in October 1990. It is a sister publication to 2000 AD.

The Megazine contains both stories set in the world of Judge Dredd, as well as unconnected stories (both original ones and reprints) and text pieces, including articles, interviews and reviews.

[edit] Stories

Like 2000 AD, the Megazine is an anthology, featuring a number of ongoing and stand-alone stories. Some series have comprised a specific storyline while others have had only a loose thematic connection. Unlike 2000 AD, reprint material has been extensively used in order to bring costs down (as original material must be commissioned). Originally this reprint material was taken from work that British creators had created for the American market, though more recently there has been much more of an emphasis on work that 2000 AD creators worked on before the creation of that comic.

[edit] Features

In between the stories are articles. They are usually comic related, such as biographies of writers or articles about stories, but they can also be about television shows, book reviews and upcoming films.

A new feature that has come about from 2006 is "Small Press". This section deals with small press or self-published writer/artists. It features a few reviews on comics, and prints one story every issue. They are usually new and different, and are unlike regular Judge Dredd Megazine stories.

At the end of nearly every issue is a letters section, where the readers can voice their opinions about the magazine.

[edit] Editors

(Note: 4.18 was the 200th issue. From the next issue a new numbering system was introduced, and the issue which would have been 4.19 became 201.)
