Judge Dredd / Biker Mice From Mars #1 Brings Maximum Law to Maximum Attitude

Blood & Thunder #18 cover art

Crusaders, somebody somewhere looked at Judge Dredd, looked at the damn Biker Mice from Mars and said, “You know what this world needs? These lunatics in the same comic.” Fam, I respect the hell out of that kind of chaos. Oni Press, Rebellion and The Nacelle Company are officially smashing these worlds together in Judge Dredd / Biker Mice From Mars #1, a double-sized 40-page crossover dropping December 2, 2026, and yeah, this already sounds completely outta pocket.

Writers Dan Watters and Ryan O’Sullivan are handling the madness with Jordi Tarragona on art, and thankfully the setup is just as nuts as the title. Limburger and Karbunkle are out here looking for another world to exploit, because apparently ruining one planet at a time was not enough for these dudes. Throttle, Vinnie and Modo jump in to stop them, get stranded in Mega-City One and suddenly realize they have landed in one of the worst possible places in comics to be loud, armed and rolling around on giant motorcycles.

Mega-City One has around 400 million people packed into one giant pressure cooker, and nobody there has time for three mutant biker mice causing a scene. Then Judge Dredd shows up, and now the problem changes real quick. The Mice are not just chasing villains anymore. They are dealing with a man whose entire personality is basically, “I am the law, now shut the hell up.”

And somehow that still is not crazy enough because Judge Death gets dragged into this mess once the Biker Mice start attracting attention. Fam, now we cooking. This stops being the usual “good guys meet, misunderstand each other, throw punches, become friends” crossover nonsense and starts sounding like an actual survival problem. You got Dredd hunting them, Judge Death sniffing around and three mutant bikers trying to stay alive in a city that already treats Tuesday like a war crime.

That is where this crossover could really hit. Judge Dredd works because Mega-City One is hostile as hell even before the monsters show up, and the Biker Mice have always been built around attitude, speed, loyalty and smashing straight through whatever gets in their way. Throw those energies together and somebody is getting tossed through a wall. Probably several somebodies.

The cover lineup is bringing some heat too. David Finch is leading the charge, with additional covers from Karl Kerschl and Andrew Krahnke. Oni is also rolling out four randomly intermixed Badge Variants from Winston Gambro inspired by classic 2000 AD badge designs, featuring Dredd, Throttle, Vinnie and Modo, plus foil, full-art, black-and-white and blank sketch editions for the collectors who already know their wallets are about to take damage.

Judge Dredd / Biker Mice From Mars #1 hits comic shops December 2, 2026 for $7.99. On paper, this whole thing sounds ridiculous. Then you think about it for five seconds and realize both worlds run on machinery, violence, attitude and characters who would rather eat concrete than back down from anybody. Yeah, fam, I need to see how far they push this madness.

The Crusade Never Ends!
