Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

I think that was actually Judge Morph -
Oh right. Was Minty Dredd's first partner once he graduated then? There was certainly some connection with Dredd's early career.

Judge Morph? Turns into a giant ball and flattens criminals, while Tony Hart stands in the background calling them talentless hacks...

TBH I'm not sure. :lol:

I think the Minty storyline was the first to introduce the concept of the Long Walk, but you're probably right - he did have some connection to Dredd's early career.

It set up Dredd as a bastard quite nicely too. "I don't care that this is going to f--k over your career" basically.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

That's certainly true... clicky

Just a one-off Dredd story, not a long-runner (it would appear).
