Books like Batman/Judge Dredd: Judgment on Gotham

Let me tell you about a cool cat named Stewart. Not only does he read all the hip comics these days but, always has a groovy recommendation to share. So when he recommended me the first Batman/Judge Dredd crossover I was all over it.What starts as an erstwhile Batman hunts-down-the-bad-guys-affair swiftly devolves into a cacophonous otherworldly journey into the dimension(?) of Judge Dredd's plane. Phenomenally well put together art works straddles the line between the hallucinatory and the ribaldry realistic. Glints and gleams of both worlds in character and art enflesh this story of epic proportions.When Judge Death hooks up with Scarecrow (natch) it's up to Batman and his newfound otherworld ally to save the day. First spikes and then an utter deluge of the subconscious roars across the pages with unfiltered atavism. With more right hooks than the Thrilla in Manilla, your eyeballs will be overwhelmed by the sheer illustrated force of this comic. The typical comic book hijinks graft themselves unto a plot so diabolical in nature it threatens the very nature (also natch) of Gotham City. Will the Batman be able to save the day? Will Mean Machine be able to fix his clock of doom so he can be right more than twice a day? And will Judge Dredd be able to administer justice upon a crime so demented and foul?You'll just have to read it yourself and find out. One and a half guilty thumbs up.
