Don’t forget that, if you’re in London this Saturday 7th September, Orbital Comics will be hosting a very special “Day of Dredd” Art Jam, in collaboration with Rebellion, publishers of 2000AD and Judge Dredd Megazine.

Invited comic creators will collaborate together on a huge Judge Dredd themed mural on the walls of the Orbital Gallery.

As we previously reported, the Day of Dredd is the explosive finale to a month of celebration, promotion and events in comic shops in the UK and beyond, honouring Britain’s biggest comic book export and a world icon.

Running from 2.00 – 6.00pm on Saturday 7th September, the Day of Dredd Art Jam will feature a wealth of guest artists from across the comic book industry and the indie comics scene. Some already confirmed guests include Conor Boyle and Laurence Campbell.
