QWhere can I find out more about Judge Death?
AThe characters of most interest to new or casual readers seem to be Judge Death and the Dark Judges, whose first appearances are drawn by Brian Bolland and can be found in The Complete Case Files volumes 3 and 5, and in the utterly superb full-colour epic Necropolis, which is reprinted in Case Files vol 14 and is written and drawn by Dredd's co-creators, John Wagner and Carlos Ezquerra. They also appear in volume one of Judge Anderson's Psi Files, in a story which serves as a bridge between their appearance in volumes 5 and 14 of The Complete Case Files. The origins of Judge Death are explored in volumes called Death Lives and The Life and Death Of Judge Death.
QWhat are the features of Dredd's handgun?
AThe Lawgiver from the 2012 film is voice-controlled and its grip has a DNA reader that causes the gun to explode if anyone but the owner attempts to use it. It fires the following types of rounds: (1) Full Metal Jacket, (2) Incendiary, (3) Hotshot, (4) Armor-piercing, (5) Stun, (6) High-Ex. In the comics, the Lawgiver has a dial allowing different types of ammunition to be selected and a palm-print scanner in the grip that causes the gun to self-destruct if anyone but the owner tries to use it. It fires 6 types of bullet: (1) Standard, (2) Ricochet, (3) Heat-seeker, (4) Hi-Ex, (5) Incendiary, (6) Armor-piercing. Later stories have added various extra bullet types, including a stun gun feature, tear gas rounds, "Exorcist Bullets" designed for supernatural foes, and electronic tracker rounds.
