CCD Holiday Geek Gift Guide - The Batman vs Judge Dredd Collection










As we creep closer and closer to Christmas I am coming across more and more cool gifts that I WANT FOR MYSELF. I know this is supposed to be the season of giving, but shit.....there are some really great geeky gifts out there and I want them! Take this excellent collection that includes all four of the cross over mini series from the nineties with Bats & Judge Dredd. Wow... great that they are all collected in one place, and for this price it is a must have for all Batman/Judge Dredd fans. The book also features a very cool  cover by Mike Mignola. These stories were a true bright spot in the 90s, when comics went through an industry wide lull. With a cover price of around 30 bucks I would jump on it, but you can grab this book for like 18 bucks on Amazon by clicking here. Get it for all the comic geeks in your life.... trust me, they will love it. Click after the jump for some pics of the book itself....

See All 33 Years Worth Of Covers From 2000 AD


Most of you guys probably never heard of 2000 AD, the semnal British magazine/comic book that is absolutely awesome. Characters like Judge Dredd, Dan Dare, and Slaine had some amazing stories in this legendary magazine. We also got to see the talents of guys like Alan Moore (One of the best comic writers... ever), David Gibbons (Watchmen artist), Garth Ennis (Preacher), Mark Millar (Wanted) & Grant Morrison (Batman) come to fruitition. Not to mention, in my opinion, the greatest comic book writer ever... my personal favorite, Neil Gaiman (Sandman, The Eternals, Marvel 1602). This magazine represents the best of the UK comic book industry, and just by this small list of artists & writers above, I certainly am thankful for our British brothers (especially Gaiman... thank god for Gaiman!). So, here you go... 33 years worth of cover genius. Thanks to io9 for the tip.
