The Essential Judge Dredd series is the perfect introduction to the Lawman of the Future - in the final volume of Tour of Duty, Dredd is forced to investigate corruption within the Judges' council, in a mission that confines him to the Cursed Earth! During Origins, Dredd discovered a mutant branch of his own bloodline. For the lawman, it brought home the injustice inherent in Justice Department’s Mutant policies. He believes that those unfortunates warped by the legacy of the Atomic Wars deserve to be treated with more humanity, as they are currently forbidden entry into Mega-City One, and exiled to facilities and townships in the irradiated wasteland. But Dredd’s support of Mutants may see him join them to live out the rest of his life in The Cursed Earth.
