During a routine day on the job, Dredd is assigned to train and evaluate Cassandra Anderson, a rookie with powerful psychic abilities thanks to a genetic mutation.

Known and feared throughout the city, Dredd is the ultimate Judge, challenged with ridding the city of its latest scourge - a dangerous drug epidemic that has users of 'Slo-Mo' experiencing reality at a fraction of its normal speed.

The only force of order lies with the urban cops called 'Judges' who possess the combined powers of judge, jury and instant executioner. On its East Coast, running from Boston to Washington DC, lies Mega City One - a vast, violent metropolis where criminals rule the chaotic streets. With the show still forthcoming fans will have to wait and see if it’s a direct continuation of the 2012 film or if Judge Dredd will embark on entirely new adventures within Mega City One.The future America is an irradiated waste land. A TV series entitled Judge Dredd: Mega City One was announced by Rebellion and IM Global Television in 2017 and has since been in pre-development. Had this story been told as a sequel film an extended run time would have been needed in order to do the Dark Judges justice.

Leaving only two issues to introduce the Dark Judges, Dead World, and how Dredd handles them was incredibly brief, but it was an original take on the characters that ended on a solid cliff-hanger. Dredd was a much more grounded representation of Judge Dredd, choosing to focus on drug gangs and corrupt Judges rather than aliens, mutants, or killer robots. That iteration of Judge Dredd was inexperienced in dealing with entities such as the Dark Judges and he did so without the aid of Anderson, a crucial weapon he used against them in the comics. Dredd: Final Judgement is an ambitious story and an interesting direction for the 2012 film’s universe.
