The Helltrekkers

Plot

Acid rain that will strip skin from bone! Killer viruses that strike without warning! Marauding bands of mutants! Herds of hungry dinosaurs! Only the bold and the foolish hate Mega-City One enough to brave the hell of the Cursed Earth – but the Helltrekkers are willing to take the chance!

Written by Judge Dredd co-creator John Wagner and his writing partner Alan Grant, with art by José Ortiz (The Thirteenth Floor) and Horacio Lalia (Planet of the Damned), The Helltrekkers is a monumental survival story and one of the earliest spin-off strips from the world of Judge Dredd.

The Helltrekkers are the new frontiersmen—men and women who hated life in Mega-City One so much that they were willing to travel 2000 kilometres across the desolate irradiated desert known as the ‘Cursed Earth’ in order to start a new life.

The chances of reaching the new territories on the other side are slim – the hostile environment is full of danger, including acid rain downpours, killer viruses, mutants and hungry dinosaurs! To increase their chances of survival, Helltrekkers set off in large convoys … but sometimes fellow travellers can cause just as many problems as the threats from outside!

Out on 7 December, brand new collection comes in two formats – a standard paperback edition and a special webshop exclusive hardcover edition, whose specially designed cover evokes the famous Haynes Manuals.
