The March of Progress
Adult Graphic Novel
"This is essential reading, hard-hitting, political, yet a fabulous couple of tales bursting with
action and incredible artwork. [...]
On one hand a simple tale familiar to anyone who's ever watched a cowboy movie, yet
Carroll and Higgins make it so much more, cast in the shadow of all that we know is
to come in Dreddworld. Such is the brilliance of Dreadnoughts. 10/10"
-- Richard Bruton,
Comicon
After a crime blitz in Boulder leads to riots against the Judges' excessive use of force and violation of human rights, the Hemlock Cartel takes advantage of the chaos to declare all-out war against the Justice Department. It is up to Judge Glover to eradicate their threat - even if her crusade could risk revealing the long-buried secrets of her past.
The best-selling series charting the origins of Judge Dredd's world continues with this provocative and socially relevant second volume, written by Michael Carroll (Judge Dredd) and drawn by John Higgins (Watchmen).
This volume collects "The March of Progress" (Judge Dredd Megazine #455-#461, May-Nov 2023) and "Nothing to Fear" (Judge Dredd Megazine #468-#471, Jun-Sep 2024).
