Welcome to the super-duper seventy-first episode of the 2000 AD Thrill-Cast Lockdown Tapes!

Judging Dredd is a collection of essays from publisher Sequart that examines Judge Dredd and his world, focusing on everything from ideas about security and justice to surveillance and even the Dark Judges. On this episode of the podcast we talk to just three of the people involved - editor Scott Weatherly, writer and Sequart founder Julian Darius, and writer Tony Farino. From the impact of the BLM protests to ideas about comic characters ageing, they discuss just some of the themes present in the pages of this legendary lawman's adventures.

The Thrill-Cast continues to broadcast every week, with both new episodes and favourite interviews from the past six years – so make sure you’re keeping yourselves and your loved ones safe, and stay tuned for more from the Galaxy’s Greatest Podcast!
