Our friends over at
ScreenGeek.net shared this with us and I had to pass it along to the CBM family to check out. 2012's
Dredd has somewhat of a cult folowing, myself included, but because it only made roughly $41 million worldwide, it hasn't been able to gain the traction needed for a sequel to be greenlit yet. This, the success that
Deadpool was able to achieve at the box office with their small budget and all of the concept art that DC/Warner Bros. and Marvel have been releasing as of late got ScreenGeek.net's Frank Palmer over at thinking; "What would a showdown between Judge Death and Judge Dredd look like?" After recruiting the help of
Art Of George they came up with the exclusive fan art rendering below.
Not bad, right?! They're hoping that the artwork will help generate some buzz and get the
Dredd sequel back on Hollywood's radar. If you're a Judge Dredd fan, you'll want to make your voice heard and check out the
"Bring Dredd Back" petition. They currently have over 200,000 signatures and are calling on NETFLIX, HBO, AMAZON PRIME, and movie companies to give us more DREDD!

About The Author:
ComicBookMovie.com and Best Little Sites was the brainchild of Nate and a friend way back in 2002. Nate initially focused on the back-end programming and front-end design, but now manages the company and its associated sites as well, with a LOT of help from some very talented contributors.
Nate has loved comics from a very young age and continues to read them on a regular basis thanks to subscriptions to various titles (both Marvel and DC). He also loves movies, as his wife and children will attest. He's not overly critical of movies, so his reviews should be taken with a grain of salt as he's much more interested in being entertained and escaping the "real" world for a couple of hours than finding every conceivable plot-hole and character flaw in a film.
Outside of his guilty "nerdy" pleasures, Nate enjoys spending time with his wife and three boys, CrossFit, playing guitar, coaching youth sports and MMA (he spent a couple of years in the cage as an NHB fighter, but is now MUCH too old).
