Judge Dredd: The Megazine is a monthly British comic magazine, launched in October 1990. It is a sister publication to 2000 AD. Its name is a play on words, formed from "magazine" and Dredd's locale Mega-City One.
Like 2000 AD, Judge Dredd Megazine is an anthology, featuring both ongoing and stand-alone stories. Some series have comprised a specific storyline while others only a loose thematic connection. Originally the Megazine only set stories in the world of Judge Dredd, including both spin-off series and Future Shock-style done-in-one stories, starting with Strange Cases and continuing with Tales from the Black Museum. It has since expanded to include some unconnected stories and text pieces, including articles, interviews and reviews.
Unlike 2000 AD, reprint material has been extensively used in order to bring costs down. As well as older 2000 AD stories such as Helltrekkers, there have also been reprints that originate elsewhere, such as Preacher and Charley's War. Since the demise of 2000 AD Extreme Edition, a bimonthly 2000 AD spinoff which focused on reprints of old strips, a separate reprint supplement has been packaged with each issue of the Megazine, usually focusing on the work of a particular 2000 AD contributor or compiling a particular strip.
Starting in issue #276 a creator-owned slot that featured Tank Girl, American Reaper and Snapshot has appeared.

The new crime-fiction saga created and written by Dan Houser (Grand Theft Auto, Red Dead Redemption), with additional writing by Lazlow, art by Eisner Award winner David Lapham, and covers by Tyler Boss.
A tale of two totally normal, completely damaged families in a world of corrupt businesses, inept local politicians, bungling criminals, and unfortunate leisurewear. We follow the fortunes of two neighbors on the point of collapse: a Mormon hit man and a gambling-addict lawyer, both intertwined in a real-estate deal gone wrong. Mix in a Mexican beauty queen on the run from her past, two escaped convicts in love, a Wall Street billionaire who has become a cowboy, and a maniac hell-bent on revenge. American culture has become a war about real estate, violence, and snake oil.
From the tax avoiders in the manicured wilderness of Wyoming to the thought police of liberal Brooklyn to the confused political and environmental battlegrounds of Florida, one thing is certain: This tragedy is someone else's fault.
• New comic book series from the head writer and creative team of Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead Redemption!
• A brutal satire that reflects on our current pollical nightmare.
• Ongoing series.

THE GALAXY'S MOST DANGEROUS (AND ADORABLE) WEAPON RETURNS!

With all the time that he's been spending on Earth, Dr. Jumba hasn't earned enough Villain Points to re-up next year. And while he no longer considers himself fully "evil," he really wants to stay in E.G.G.S. - mainly for their great dental plan, and complimentary intergalactic travel lounges.
What's a morally flexible genius to do? Why, create a series of evil inventions in an attempt to remain qualified, of course! There's just one problem (well, two, if you count Pleakley's vain attempts to rein in the good doctor): Stitch is a wild card that Jumba can never properly account for in his calculations - and the fuzzy little ball of chaos finds a way to ruin every one of his brilliant inventions!
