Brilliant variant cover by graphic artist James Biggie for August’s Judge Dredd #10 from IDW:
“The Cursed Earth, Pt. 2”—Judge Dredd, along with his multi-eyed precog mutie companion Dannn, fight venture through the Cursed Earth in pursuit of the renegade droids who stole the only thing that can save Mega-City One. Horrific obstacles stand in their way… but none more horrific than the worst backwoods criminal posse ever to set foot on irradiated soil:the Angel Gang! When these longtime fan-favorite villains make their U.S. debut, you’d better make sure your dial is set to “brutal”…
