If you enjoy this and want me to make more hit that like. 40K lore will continue, but hopefully you guys will also love me narrating other characters, orgs and systems as much as the 40K verse.
If you have a suggestion for other things you might want me to cover, investigate, timeline or overview please tell me in the comments.
Really interested in the Judge Dredd universe, would love to see more!
Luetin09 great stuff! I'm amazed how similar our tastes are with 40K and now Judge "I am the Law" Dredd. Other 2000 AD characters would be most appreciated e.g. Strontium Dog, Rogue Trooper, Halo Jones, A.B.C Warriors to name a few. Looking forward to see what you come up with next. Your lore content is first rate.
If you dont make more lore videos... you will be judged. Also do starcraft lore, a history of starcraft and starcraft brrodwsr would be nice. I am the law
Do ROGUE TROOPER NEXT PLSPLSPLS
Great video ! Plus, Dredd's universe is dark enough to go alongside 40K occasionaly. ^^
Why not talking about some side characters of the comics, like Anderson, Zero or Death ? :D
I just imagined a spacemarine in 40k opening a heartshaped necklace and looking at a picture of Judge Dredd.
It wouldnt be aspace marine it would be the arbites
@@afriendlycadian9857 I can see the Black Templars or the Iron Hands idolizing a character like Dredd, that stops at nothing to exact his duty upon the lawless scum.
@@enriquejoseantequerasanche6180 maybe but i would think the arbites are badically dredd well the cool ones anyway
Thanks you for this, I will cherish the thought forever.
Inquisitor name there favorite dildo judge dredd and the white templare would write love letter to him.
I AM THE LORE!
Brilliant ROFL
You're Goddamn Right
This deserves more recognition
And I'm hearing that to the Anthrax tune, "I AM THE LAW"
The Lol~?
Judge Dredd Movie: "Why did you remake me?"
Dredd: "You took off your helmet."
Judge Dredd: "A means to an end"
Dredd: "You deviated from the comics"
Judge Dredd: "I started a revolution."
Dredd: "You betrayed the LORE!!!"
Judge Dredd: "LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORE!"
God, Dredd was such an awesome movie.
Sly Stallone's flick made a lot of source _references_ , but to me, Karl Urban's version had the _feel_ of a Dredd comic down cold.
The Stallone Dredd did a way better job of showing the city, and even covered the outside world. It was a much better movie in my opinion. The ending is also 10x better, with Dredd refusing to become the Chief Judge: "I'm a Street Judge, and i'm very late for work". Badass.
Kascio GG Understandable. I liked it 'cause it (to me at least) had that cool, low budget, gritty feeling with a nice simple plot. Plus Dredd kept his helment on (petty I know but, eh?)
BeatmasterAC
LOL
I LOVE it when people bring up Judge Dredd. One of the biggest OG cyberpunk universes and it was my favorite. Alex Garland and Karl Urban absolutely crushed it.
Judge Dredd...a veritable one man army of policing...judge, jury and executioner...
In Warhammer 40k lore, he's just a normal arbite...
Because the Adeptus Arbites are just THAT badass.
@@Memento--Mori funny how 40K was partially inspired by Judge Dredd
Bruh.
He's actually a tv show character hahaha
He's called Arbiter Foreboding hahahah it's so awesome
@@Memento--Mori
The Adeptus Arbites were created using Judge Dredd geneseed.
@@user-unos111 Now how would anyone from that near future time know anything about one's Geneseed? I thought Geneseed was strictly an Adeptus Astartes thing...
Fun Fact: In the Stallone adaptation, there was an early scene where Dredd stepped out to confront a Block War by shouting: "I AM... THE LAW!"
It became the butt of jokes for those who know the Malay language (Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore), because of Stallone's accent it sounded more like "AYAM... TELUR!", literally "CHICKEN... EGG!"
I can't stop laughing at this!
Elmo hey man, Judge Dredd ain’t no yoke!
@@duemoto1683 that wasn't Judge Dredd
I did not ask for it but now I get the ancient meme from the Old World. Thanks.
I never realised that lol! Now you just made that line even funnier
Judges were the main inspiration for the 40k Arbites.
No shit. Warhammer came out before, but I do think the Arbites came after. The Arbites even look like Dredd, and it's great.
I would say they inspired each other, warhammer 40k provided a grim-dark situation, dread provided the legal system... and the rest is history
Also the hive worlds and the satire.
@@Memento--Mori Nah, Dredd came first. Like 10 years before 40k.
Judge Dredd made his first appearance in issue no. 2 of 2000AD in early May 1977. W40K came out in 1987…
I'm confused... I was not expecting a video on Dredd. Not that I'm complaining, I'm just confused. That being said, can I have more?
Check out a really good movie channel called OLIVER HARPER DREDD COMMENTARY Its a couple of guys who are big dredd fans explaining the dredd lore and world. Its really good to listen to and well worth you checking out.
Warhammer 40k borrows a lot of its lore from other sources. Judge Dredd is one of the major influences of the Inquisition, along with hive planets, such as Necromunda. Other stuff, like the Space Marine attack bike, was also influenced by Judge Dredd.
It also helps that Dredd and WH40k are both British creations. There's a lot of tongue-in-cheek-over-the-top humor and philosophy in both settings.
For reference, Judge Dredd was first published in 1977, while Warhammer 40k's Rogue Trader was published 10 years later in 1987.
Eric Vargas
Isn't it also true that GW made Judge Dredd minis before? The arbites have a VERY Judge Dredd feel.
40k was like a parody of Dredd when it first came out, don't try to compare the similarities now with a lore that has been revamped 30 times. It's kinda funny cause Dredd was in many ways a parody of dystopian themes, so warhammer 40k became a parody of a parody, no wonder the dystopian hyperboles of the universe. Both Dredd and warhammer though tried to become serious as years went by. I believe warhammer was more sucessful following the fantasy dogma and becoming pretty much a collage of 'borrowed' ideas. It's really hard to find a unique idea in warhammer, i wouldn't mind if GW wasn't the biggest copystriking faggot company after Disney.
Jimmy Jazz
Might be because GW got their start borrowing from other IPs. I heard WFB started after they got hired to make a bunch of D&D models, and they had a bunch afterwards and were like, "fuck it, let's make a badass game".
'Gaze into the face of Fear,' 'Gaze into the fist of Dredd!!'
Oh Fear, you never gunna be Death.
This was awesome LT. I had a good mate who collected the comics when we were kids, we used to sit there wearing gloves to read them, carefully turning the pages so as not to crease them, then back into the special plastic wrapper never to be read again. You did great!
What happened to the comics? Were they eventually used as toilet paper for rich people?
I can't give these Lore vids enough praise homie, you could make Dora the Explorer Lore videos and I'd watch them lmao
Truth.
@Luetin09 Challenge accepted?
I love Judge Dredd, its my favourite comic book series and character. Also there needs to be a sequel to Dredd, it was by far the best comic book movie made.
i heard a sequel is is in works but its a tv series
It bommed so it's unlikely.
theres litreally a judge dredd series in the works
its confirmed tho look it up it comes out this year
By the same director? He's awesome.
A GOOD LORE CHOIICE
I always liked the Dredd universe ...

To quote someone...I can't remember who....
"I AM THE LORE"....
Well done! Back in the 80’s my older brother and I would walk to the neighborhood ComicBook store and buy Judge Dredd. Mom said we weren’t allowed to read it, it was too strange and violent for a 10 and 12 year old. So we’d sneak and read them while listening to the record player. Great memories.
This is bad ass, man! You should definitely do the DOOM marine, and BJ Blazkowicz some time in the future.
Also MASTER CHIEF
Bump for the Doom Slayer vs Doom Guy distinction
@@Raiinjin They're the same person.
Some of Brian Bolland's best work. The Judge Death stories are the pinnacle of 2000 AD.
im a really big fan of the character, I love how its premise its basicly Hobbes Leviathan but in an action setting
I love Judge Dredd. I grew up reading 2000 A.D. and Dredd graphic novels. No film has really done it justice yet in my opinion (pun intended.)
Dredd: "That's 3 months in an iso-cube for that pun, perp."
Impersonating a Judge too, I see. You're only making it hard for yourself, Citizen!
I think carl urban pulled it off..not enough of the city shown but as dredd carl nailed it
@ agreed. That was the highlight for sure.
I'm very interested by Judge Dredd series because I love Dredd 3D
But there are few Japanese localized comics, and most Japanese recognize Judge Dredd as the Stallone movie, not comic.
Even Dredd 3D isn't well known in Japan.
I feel very sad.
It is sad, the movie was really sloppy. Its a great series with amazing comics, from comedy to real political satire. Just spread them around to friends i guess.
I love dread 2012 yeah best action movie ever made
Awesome Luetin, I remember when the first movie came out, I quickly became aware that there was a well documented universe via comics and such and lot of characters asides Dredd himself but never got down to exploring any of that. Looking forward to watching this.
We like how you narrate, edit, and explain things. Simple.
That’s a good name
I approve
Damn a judge Dredd lore video longer than 3 minutes? Nice.
Any video on the Adeptus Arbites is just as good. Basically the same thing xd
@Luetin09 I have been painting 40k models for two years now. I have been getting through a lot of my painting just by listening to your lore videos which makes me appreciate the hobby with the lore tied with it. Great narration to top it off! Thanks again for what you do!

This is awesome. I would like to see more about the other types of judges and some lore about the Tau.
Filthy Xenos lover
Judge Dredd deserves his own triple AAA game, or at the very least to be a guest character in Mortal Kombat.
Id love to see more 2000AD strips explored. There are so many you could cover in a similar way to this video!
Just a minor note, I think the SJS is the Special Judicial Squad not Special Justice Squad.
Your right its judicial
Same difference, but yeah you're right.
@@chucklacuck2060 *You're right, *it's _judicial._
Sorry, man, your spelling gave me a stroke.
@@hamarbiljungskile8953 goe dye than lol
Dude your vids are so good. I love your 40k vids but as something different I definitely enjoyed this. If you’re going to continue doing overview vids like this I’d love to see your take on the vashda nerada from dr who.
I first heard of Judge Dredd because I listened to Anthrax in the 80s. They wrote a song called I Am The Law.
Wow this was really informative! I've always been really curious about Dredd but I've only read one of the case studies and seen both the films so this was a lot of new info!
Dredd, Nemesis The Warlock, and Rogue Trooper, were my boys, growing up.
Bruh, I highly encourage you look into the lore of Gears of War. It’s very dystopian even before the Locust show up and it actually has a deeper story behind it than most would believe. Just a suggestion if you’re looking to breach out to other Lores
Dredd was by far one of the coolest movies I've seen during its time
It was a pleasant surprise to find you doing a video on a character I enjoy that isn't 40 k.
I recently discovered your channel through 40k and am loving that side of things. Love Dredd as well though and will be keeping an eye out for more videos on the horrifyingly hilarious universe of Mega City One.
I've been listening to you for quite some time, but didn't run across this until today. I love it! And would live to hear some more.
Dredd is one of my favorite characters. A buddy of mine considers him a "constant" or an element. Something like plasma, electricity or fire.....
So, along with solid,liquid,gas, solidus(jelly) and plasma, "hardened badass" is another state of matter? I can see that.
Sounds like your friend is saying Dredd is more a force of nature that a person- kind of like a gun toting, lawbound Michael Myers.
That comment made me lol. I just imagined Mike Myers responding to a barking dog call. “Scuse me ma’am , your neighbor complained about your dog.”
@@starlord157 "Canine barking after 9pm? that's TWENTY years in an Iso-Cube citizen!"
I really enjoy these in depth lore videos. You quality control is outstanding!
Holy crap! I knew the Mega Cities were big and that the Cursed Lands were bad, but I had NO IDEA just how messed up their situation was!
More Dredd Luetin! Folks need to hear more about this fascinating sci fi setting and how closely it reflects the potential future we all face if humanity doesn't change course (nuclear war, resource scarcity, ecological collapse, AI destroying labor and leaving everyone bored on benefits while a tiny few own everything etc etc).
completely unexpected to see some dredd stuff, but 110% welcome. keep it up with all this good warhammer stuff and now dredd stuff! super happy to be seeing more of this comin from ya after not seeing any more for a little while.
everyone I know loved the shit outta your videos about the emperor btw.
So being a smoker in the UK today and being a smoker in MegaCity One are basically the same? Great video's this is a deep dive, love it.
John Wagner himself noted that in an interview a few years back, along with the Judges outlawing smacking.
So not only do they live in a dystopian hellhole with rampant crime where cops by default are authorized to sentence you without a trial but _on top of all that,_ stimulants like coffee and sugar are illegal?
That is _dark as hell._
Happy to watch more and my 2 cents would be to start out with some more in depth of the various cities, history and characters while moving forward. Since how Dredd was done in 2000ad was pretty much a continuous line.
or just do whatever. My guess a lot are wanting some bit on Judge Death now that you started.
The Barton and story telling us what brought me to your channel. I spend a lot of time on the road and being able to listen to lore and history of my favorites without having to look at my phone is a blessing
You keep hitting gold with these lore videos! I loved the judge dread comics when I was younger and my favorite CZcamsr delivered without me even knowing I wanted a lore video about it! ;)
HERESY! 40k only! how dare you!!!!!
I kid. This was great, you're a fantastic narrator. I didn't realize how cool the background to Judge Dred was.
in the comics, dredd ages real time, so has there ever been some anti aging story arc for dredd, or are we looking at a james bond character, that will just be alive forever
Man, even 40k has coffee.. this is the real grimdark.. lol
Do you wanna know something funny? In the most recent movie adaptation of this IP, when he crime rate was cited as 17000 a day. That may sound like a lot, but it's for a city of 800 million people. That is actually a shockingly low crime rate considering the fact that all 800 million people are living together in one MASSIVE city.
Lol someone watches Cinema Sins
Judge Dredd was most likely referring to his own sector, not to mention that he states that Judges can only respond to five percent of reported crimes.
Good potted history of Dredd. Been enjoying reading his stories since the beginning, so sorry but you got the "No Fines" bit wrong, there are some fines like "defective lights = 500 credits", "sugar possession = 1000 credits to 2 years encubment" or "erratic driving = 1000 credits to 3 years encubment". There are more and there is some discretion given to the judges.
But great video and a chance to see some excellent artwork again too.
2000 AD Rogue Trooper, still wish they had made it into a film like Carl Urbans Dredd film which was class.
Mate, Rogue Trooper was the one.
@@boltaurelius376 disloyalty to mega city 1..mandatory 5 years in an isocube for you citizen
Only recently discovered your channel. Currently digging through your Warhammer 40K stuff, and loving all of it. Hope you keep doing more lore videos on a variety of things. The Witcher series might make a good candidate, if you're familiar with them.
There is a lot of terrible fan-made video about the Lore of the Warcraft and StarCraft universes. I appreciate seeing your opinion upon the these. History old debate about how the Terran Dominion show similarities to The Imperium of man.
Really? I would have thought they would be solidly covered. I am tempted to do Warcraft because I was a very hardcore WoW player for about 6 years in the oldschool days
Well none of them even close to the quality of your videos as far I see them on YT.
I've been so far down the rabbit hole with your 40k vids that I'd forgotten you'd done Dredd. 😅
I remember the name the judge competition back in … late 77 early 78 ? ’
The strip wasn’t called Judge Dredd He was just. The judge. There was a write in to choose a name for him.
I was a wee lad.
I demand lore on the Alpha Legion!
Alpharius Omegon What alpha legion?
There is no lore for them. I wish GW would go really in depth with the Alpha Legion, just saying that in lore, no one else knows it. You know, so we know their lore, but the other factions don't.
RoboCop + Captain Falcon = Judge Dredd.
LT, this was excellent. I really enjoyed it and appreciate a little lore off the beaten track.
Yeah, Judge Dredd.
Would love to see more Dredd lore Luetin09 mate.
nice a Adeptus Arbites, I love your lore vids man
Dredd is the single most under-rated comic series of all time.
Torture is illegal.
But every punishment is solitary confinement.
I wonder if hypocrisy is illegal
Man i sure miss this Judge Dredd lore series
Your videos are superbly cut and narrated and so far you’ve nailed two of my favourite IP’s. Please more Dredd!
Great concise intro into the world of Dredd. Would like a video similar to ‘must read’ books of Dredd.
I would love new Judge Dredd lore on this channel. I absolutely adore 40k universe, but Judge Dredd has also been one of my favorite comics since I was a kid. So I would kindly ask for a new judge Dredd lore, maybe something about the block wars, or Dredd vs Rico rivalry, or maybe chronological view of all the chief judges.
Man would still love to see a long video on judge D. Probably one of my favorite characters and stories, movies ever.
Good idea. I love your 40k lore , but its good to see you can tackle other detailed sci fi universes .
Thoroughly enjoyed this.👍👍
In the Grim Darkness of the Near Future, there's only THE LAH!
This was good more please
Please do more videos about judge Dredd lore it’s fascinating! I’ve only watched the 2 movies and played the video game so learning more about the lore and knowing how dark it is I love it!
Aka the Adeptus Arbites.
I like all your lore videos. Be interested to hear your take on the Strontium Dog's lore too.
Ah... "Gaze into the fist of Dredd!" Take that, Judge Fear!
Bro amazing work. Why isn't this a show on Netflix?? Such rich source material.....Even the Introduction before Dredd would be rich .
Loteh Okafor It’s coming
Dredd's finest moment, for me, was that time he gave Batman a good drubbing, then arrested him and dragged him off for questioning. Short lived moment, I know but arresting Batman, sentencing him to 20 years for Judge Assault, having a fight, then getting pulled apart like squabbling toddlers by Judge Anderson?
I dont care if youre fully rested or not.
Whoever thought it a good idea to have someone awake for 23 hours and 50 minutes a day is a madman.🤯😰
Judge Dredd i grew up with buying 2000 AD comic it was one of those characters i loved aswell as the dark knight Batman .
Judge Death and his brothers were some of the best stories and characters to come out of the franchise .
Karl Urban played Dredd beautifully , the Stallone version was way too glamorized by Hollywood .
Only thing I will compliment the Stallone movie on were the visuals. They nailed that... right until Stallone removed the helmet XD Though in seriousness they brought the visuals from the comic to the big screen, but everything else was drek.
Chromatism yeah visuals is Hollywood , yep as soon as Stallone removed his helmet off everything died lol .
Mats Martensson they made Dredd with Karl Urban more realistic and concentrated on block wars , in the Stallone version they crammed way too much in typical Hollywood , so how many times does Dredd remove his helmet in the comics ? Yeah ok .
As soon as Stallone removed his helmet the film was done for me as a fan .
Regardless of what you think Dredd with Karl Urban was miles better , a more realistic version .Dredd's armour was slimmed down to make it look like a Judge could use it in reality , they stayed true to the comics and Karl Urban took Dredd more seriously than Stallone ever did .
Stallone removing his helmet as Dredd was the worst mistake that film did , at the time Stallone had a huge ego it probably was in the script taking the helmet off was Stallone's idea , Hollywood glamour film lol .
Mats Martensson You don't film that story. Simple.
If you think the harshness of Judges is not needed in Mega City One, then you don't understand the stupidity of their people in Mega City One. Here's a small list of things people have done.
-Kidnapped and tortured people in order to record their screams for a performance using said screams as the instruments themselves. It got a "meh" review
-Every year during Christmas eve there is a large hover cruiser that people ride full of the best dining, entertainment and joys one can want. It's programmed to crash when it strikes midnight and the occupants are fully aware they are committing suicide.
-They have a code for mass suicide, which is a common thing that happens in Mega City One
-There are people who as a career, are professionally fat. They're so fat they need belly wheels and hover scooters just to move.
-A man who tried to kill his boss with a chainsaw inadvertently destroyed a high class "fatty" restaurant, caused a gang war and collapsed 13 mega structures, totaling near 30,000 deaths in one night. That's not even close to a record for mass death there.
-A mutant rabbit once killed a train car full of people with a knife, two elderly and stuffed a child down a sewage drain
-Violent Crime is so common that people don't think twice about getting mugged since a Judge response is unlikely, not because they do not care, but because they are so busy.
-Loitering can get you 6 months in jail.
-There are entire section of the city that are lawless zones.
Judges are needed.
Basically Doomslayer mixed with robocop
We need Judges now more than ever.
Ok fascist
So glad I discovered this channel. Its like everything LT likes, I like. Top quality in terms of content and presentation. Cheers for the vid.
Absolutely brilliant, I would love to see more 2000 AD videos from you, love the way how you portray Dredd and his world. Only one little nitpick from me, the SJS stands for "Special 'Judicial' Squad", not special justice squad. But an excellent video nevertheless.
Dude I will literally listen to you describe lore for anything.
Local Arbite sitting in a bar getting some beer
Judge Dredd walks in and starts talking about how many people he has to police
Arbite overhears and breaks out laughing, and starts talking about a hive city
Oh and just imagine Dredd in Nostromo before Kurze “cleaned” it up
Nah, Dredd is a badass even by 40k standards
Judge Dredd! Now we're talking. Superb :D
"I'm fightin' with Rowdy Yates Block!
Who you fightin' with?"
Richard Nixon block has attacked John F Kennedy block. Again.
I'm with trump block
@ You didn't get it. It's a reference to a line Dredd says in the 'Block War' storyline from the 80s. Look it up, Brian Bolland FTW! No Politics here mate.
@@monomakes I know I was joking
I honestly think you are one of the best content creators on CZcams. Keep it up
Brilliant I'd love to hear your take on Rogue Trooper universe, Strontium Dog and ABC Warriors
Wait what?!?
Now you do comics?
Awesome!
Best narration, best content, and over all really good topic choices in general.
I never knew I needed this so bad. You've got yourself a subscriber!
man i wish there would be more top notch dredd content on youtube
I am going to be doing a bit more soon
@@Luetin09 heck yes. first beer is on me mate
Great, now I feel compelled to watch the awful 90s movie with Sylvester Stalone. You did this to me! XD
Awful? Get out!
Dredd is a senior street Judge
And if people did not know, there is going to be a tv series in this universe. Dredd being only one of the many characters as the title of the series is Mega City One, meaning that city it self is a character of the story. I still need to get my hands on the comics fyi.
Great vid on the main man himself LT, really really enjoyed it :D
