Dredd Creators At Judgement Day in Dundee

By John Freeman on September 24, 2012

The Dundee Contemporary Arts cinema is holding a special screening of Dredd 3D on Friday 28 September 2012. The screening will be preceded by a QandA session with 2000AD writers Alan Grant and Al Ewing, and artists Colin MacNeil and Cam Kennedy.

The event begins appropriately enough at 2000 hours with the screening beginning at 2045 and tickets are available via the DCA website.

Prior to this the four creators will be at the opening of a Judge Dredd art exhibition in the nearby Tower Building of the University of Dundee. This event will begin at 1800 and is free but ticketed with tickets available via the Eventbrite website.

There are more details of the Judgement Day events at their Facebook page.
