About The Book
BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE HONDO! Samurai-like Judges rule the streets of Japan's mega-city in the world of Judge Dredd. Tackling organised crime and futuristic Ronin, it takes Judges like the renowned Judge Shimura to keep the streets safe.
WAY OF THE RONIN!
Hondo City is the Japanese Equivalent of Mega-City One - a large, sprawling urban mass policed by a Justice Department. Culturally however, it is totally different. While on the forefront of modern technology, the Hondo-citizens remain tied to the roots and customs of feudal Japan, while the Samurai-like Judge Inspectors who police the city, have been plagued by cases of corruption. Fortunately, judges like Aiko Inaba are upholding the law while questioning the authority of Justice Central.
From giant city-stomping beasts to vengeful ronin from beyond the grave, Hondo City life can be crazier than a pocketful of Pokémon! This collection features a host of 2000 AD comic talent, including Robbie Morrison (The Authority, Nikolai Dante), Colin MacNeil (Judge Dredd, Insurrection), Colin Wilson (Star Wars, Rogue Trooper), Cliff Robinson (Judge Dredd, Judge Anderson) and Steve Parkhouse (The Bojeffries Saga, Doctor Who).
