2012’s Movie Dredd, based on the long-running comic about the stone-faced lawman of the future, was a great fun shooting walk thru Mega City One’s towering city blocks. Karl Urban and Olivia Thirlby’s performances as Judges Dredd and Anderson, respectively, were fantastic, and left both long-time Dredd readers and new fans wanting to see more from them, which is why Arthur Wyatt and Henry Flint provided a comic book sequel set in the world of the movie called Underbelly, where Dredd had to tackle a new drug that gave crooks the ability to see into the future.
Underbelly has been a huge success. The first and second printings both sold out at the distributor level, and this October, it’s getting a third, featuring a new cover by artist Trevor Hairsine.
