Wait, What?

Welcome to the eighth episode of Drokk!, as Graeme McMillan and Jeff Lester try to ride out the time paradoxes of reading Volume Eight of Judge Dredd: The Complete Casefiles! John Wagner, Alan Grant, Steve Dillon, Ron Smith, Ian Gibson, Kim Raymond, and Brett Ewins deliver an unexpected nadir in their tales of Mega-City One and its most prominent lawman as a mega-prog derails, a Cursed Earth adventure feels little more than cursed, and The Hell Street Blues prove not to be nearly as terrifying as the We Have Seen It All Before Blues! Sure, there is still Sunday Night Fever, and the amazing triptych of Question of Judgement, Error of Judgement, and A Case For Treatment but suddenly the series that could not put a blocky booted foot wrong cannot seem to get anything right. Why? And how? Join us as we dig in and try to answer!

In episode four, Graeme McMillan and Jeff Lester make their way through the corresponding volume of Judge Dredd Case The Complegte Case Files, comprising Progs 156 through 207 in the adventures of the U.K. icon.
