  Judge Dredd Megazine #202 Review - Silver Bullet Comics
Historically, the JD Megazine was designed to appeal to an older audience than 2000AD but as the years have gone by 2000AD's audience has aged and thus the content of the 2 organs isn't that dissimilar in terms of target audience.
Judge Dredd - Bato Loco by Rennie, Coleby –
This is a nice solid Judge Dredd story filled with the usual mix of ultrviolence, bizarre humour and originality to entertain (how many other comicbook stories would open with a half naked guy wielding a chainsaw whilst land surfing on the body of an enormously fat dead body?).

 Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Judge Dredd
Dredd is one of many so-called "judges" who maintain order in Mega City One, a vast, impossibly dense urban sprawl that covers the entire eastern portion of North America in the 22nd century dystopia in which he lives.
For example, Dredd once investigated an attempt on the part of organized criminals to prey on a professional baseball team, and, being absolutely impartial in his upholding of the law, wound up putting away most of the players and coaching staff, and quite a few spectators, on unrelated charges, most involving victimless crimes.
Judge Dredd is the major star of Britain's weekly science fiction comic book, 2000 AD, which was launched by IPC magazines with a cover date of Feb. 26, 1977.

I have always liked the way the Megazine managed to be more adult and experimental than 2000 AD without being all prissy about it.
It's my sad duty to report that if the Megazine has been my first coffin nail and/or expresso, then the 15th Birthday issue is a nicotine patch or a cup of caro made with skim milk.

The megazine was very open to criticism and debate with a lively letters page and higher average of readership (about 24 although this figure in quite old) but smaller (and more fickle) readership lead to high price which forced the megazine back to being a monthly, a sort of publishing vicious cycle.

But this small press feature they do is a great idea, as is the free space they give to unknowns to print some of their work and bring it to a larger, maybe different, audience.

 Review of Judge Dredd: The Art of Kenny Who?
The Judges are in fact policemen, judge and jury rolled into one and they control the city.
This means that stories can (not all do) draw upon a huge body of references that give life in Mega City 1 an almost believable level of detail even if such a life is too fantastic as far as the real world is concerned.
That the series owes no particular allegiance to any longer Dredd story arc makes it excellent for those less familiar with the Dredd universe and so ideal for those who want to dip into Dredd without subscribing to weekly 2000AD or the monthly Megazine.

 Judge Dredd Megazine #217 Review - Silver Bullet Comics
David Bishop’s text feature, an ambitious index of all Dredd stories to date, sorted chronologically and grouped into storylines rather than issues, follows, and I’m afraid it’s a waste of space.
It’s the fourth and final part of Judge Dredd: Blood of Satanus II: Dark Matters by Mills and Mighten, and it’s long on action and violence (and gore) (and title), short on plot.
The rebellion in the past on Judge Death’s homeworld is torn to pieces and Anderson shocked back into awareness in “current” Mega-City One, but she’s bringing a visitor with her, and this particular visitor can’t be stopped… superb story, and at 12-page chunks it’s solved the prior problems of shorter continuing strips in the Megazine.
