Ebook cursed earth koburn review Beyond the walls of Mega City One out in the harsh wastelands of the irradiated desert that is the Cursed Earth an alternative kind of policing is required Circuit Judges like Koburn keep the peace through their own set of standards often turning a blind eye to minor indiscretions and this laid back attitude is guaranteed to rub one particular stickler of a lawman up the wrong way Cursed Earth Koburn Judge Dredd The Mega Collection 67 This Cursed Earth set anthology follows wise cracking gun toting judge Koburn who s your Western Sheriff than Cyber slick street judge He makes a fantastic counterpart to Dredd both men being heroic law men yet totally opposed in their attitudes and methods The first story Sturm und dang has the pair face off against a mutie Hitler Foo Rewr leading the first mutie reich Love this one pairing the two judges is comedy gold and the larger than life villains make this a hoot Koburn is one of those wonderful characters who can feature in straight adventure lol comedy weird parody and dead serious tragedy and still retain his core integrity This anthology offers the full range we have some nice social commentary pieces like the Zorro esque El Maldito to woowoo weird with the undead personification of the Cursed Earth in The Assizes While this isn t particularly innovative sophisticated or bitingly satirical as some of the Dredd strips can be its very much black and white Western style stories it is lightening paced and damn fun Love the Cursed Earth as a setting truly anything goes and Koburn makes a great anti hero It is also a wonderful showcase for the art of Carlos Ezquerra one of my favourite 2000AD artists Cursed Earth Koburn Judge Dredd The Mega Collection 67 More of the seemingly endless stream of Dreddverse C listers to which the Mega Collection has been treating us lately these stories appear to be artist driven Koburn being a transplant of Carlos Ezquerra s 1970s character Major Eazy into the Cursed Earth and a story called El Maldito being an update of his El Mestizo in a very similar vein Of course Ezquerra art is hardly ever a waste of time and while Gordon Rennie s scripts do tend towards the predictable end of the spectrum he does at least cleave closely to the spirit and humour of classic Dredd strips so the pages turn enjoyably enough if rather forgettably. Cursed earth koburn epub pdf Surprising to me was the revelation in the closing interview with Rennie that he felt he d taken the character of Koburn as far as he could in these pages YET ANOTHER maverick Judge who breaks all the rules but still gets results much to the irritation of Dredd when they meet I don t think it s unduly snarky to suggest that Cursed Earth Koburn exemplifies the minimum possible thought and effort necessary to create a spin off Judge Dredd strip and if Rennie couldn t think of anywhere else to go after a mere 100 or so pages of adventures it s probably because he hadn t bothered to put anything interesting or imaginative into the mix even to start with Cursed Earth Koburn Judge Dredd The Mega Collection 67 Koburn is a great character based off an old non Dredd character and also set on the actor James Coburn Koburn is a relaxed Judge who resides in the cursed earth Where rules and regulations are a lot different to those that Joe Dredd sticks by in the big Meg.
