| The future has arrived at Lunar Distribution! Starting with February’s edition of the Lunar Catalogue, the award-winning Judge Dredd Megazine will be available each and every month for order through Lunar, bringing Thrill-Power worldwide!
Judge Dredd Megazine has been running since 1990, and in its current form is a monthly 100-page magazine which features new comics alongside features, interviews, and more. The Megazine focuses on Judge Dredd and the future dystopia of Mega-City One which he patrols – and is also the home to iconic and beloved characters like Judge Anderson, Devlin Waugh, and Metta Lawson.
Some of the most famous stories in 2000 AD history first found their home in the Megazine, including the iconic and thrilling Judge Dredd: America as well as the horror of Young Death; alongside modern classic runs like the heavy-hitting Dreadnoughts and the wild-west action of Lawless.
Each issue of Judge Dredd Megazine features some of the most acclaimed and individual creators currently working in comics, including names like John Wagner, Garth Ennis, Chris Weston, Colin MacNeil, Dan Abnett, Rob Williams, John Higgins, Alex de Campi, Phil Winslade and more.
Alongside the all-new comics published in each monthly edition, the Megazine also features a variety of features and interviews set across the world of comics, celebrating and championing new initiatives and raising attention to comics being created across the UK. From interviews with film director Ben Wheatley and Dredd’s co-creator John Wagner through to features on the recent Dan Dare revival and return of A1/Deadline, the Megazine offers news and updates on the ever-changing and inventive world of British comics – making it an essential read for anyone interested in what’s going on in the industry!
The first available issue of The Big Meg will be Judge Dredd Megazine 491, which features a pulse-pounding collection of stories! Every Megazine kicks off with a ten-page Judge Dredd story, and Megazine 491 also features the acclaimed alt-universe serial Megatropolis; the return of the dimension-hopping Department K; the hard-edged 1970s New York Coppers Fargo & McBane; the sci-fi soccer shenanigans of John Wagner and Dan Cornwell’s Rok The World; the radioactive terror of Atomfall; and much more!
The arrival of Judge Dredd Megazine as a monthly comic via Lunar continues the growing partnership between Rebellion and Lunar, which began in 2025.
Alongside Judge Dredd Megazine, Lunar also offer Rebellion Special releases including the upcoming Action 50th Anniversary Special, which celebrates the anniversary of the controversial UK comic with a new 48-page issue spearheaded by Garth Ellis; and new and backlist collections including the Judge Dredd: Rend & Tear Graphic Novel, as well as The Complete Alan Moore, a new series of hardback collections which begins in 2026.
