Shock & Awe
When I first read this in 2000AD, all those years ago, I was immediately hooked. With no idea as to what was going on, I found myself slowly drawn in to this man's quest to discover who he was & how he came to be in the state he was. This is essentially a mystery story which built up week by week to a truly jaw dropping revelation at the end. It's hard to say any more without spoiling the end if you don't know anything about it. But that's the best way to enjoy this story. If you've read it before I'm sure you would like to read it again. But if you haven't & your a 2000AD fan, I believe your in for a treat.
superb but where's the end of the story?
This is one of my all time favourite stories, not least because the reader didn't know who the Dead Man was until close to the end of the story. Can't remember if anything was done for Yassa in later progs though...
The only gripe I have is about the way Rebellion have sliced and diced the story. I already have Necropolis from a previous printing, but they've left the end of the Dead Man story line to vol 14 of the Collected Judge Dredd, so I'm now going to end up with another copy of Necropolis. Argh!!
Should have been included in case files 14
I bought this with the Complete case files 14, and luckily read it first. Strange it wasn't included in 14, but anyway, much of 14 won't wake as much sense without it. A nice dark story and an interesting interlude to Necropolis.
