The Judge Dredd Megazine
''Judge Dredd: The Megazine'' is a monthly British comic magazine, launched in September 1990. It is a sister publication to '' 2000 AD''. Its name is a play on words, formed from "magazine" and Judge Dredd's locale Mega-City One. Content Like ''2000 AD'', ''Judge Dredd Megazine ''is an anthology, featuring both ongoing and stand-alone stories. Some series have comprised a specific storyline while others only a loose thematic connection. Originally the Megazine only set stories in the world of '' Judge Dredd'', including both spin-off series and '' Future Shock''-style done-in-one stories, starting with ''Strange Cases'' and continuing with ''Tales from the Black Museum''. It has since expanded to include some unconnected stories and text pieces, including articles, interviews and reviews. Unlike ''2000 AD'', reprint material has been extensively used in order to bring costs down. As well as older ''2000 AD'' stories such as '' Helltrekkers'', there have also been reprints tha ...

Creator-owned
In the United States, creator ownership in comics is an arrangement in which the comic book creator retains full ownership of the material, regardless of whether the work is self-published or published by a corporate publisher. In some fields of publishing, such as fiction writing, creator ownership has historically been standard. In other fields—such as comics, recorded music, or motion pictures—creator ownership has traditionally been uncommon, with either work for hire or publisher purchase of the material being standard practice. This article traces the changing standards of the comic book industry. History Early twentieth century In 1906, Richard F. Outcault took his creation '' Buster Brown'' from the ''New York Herald'' to the ''New York American''. Outcault had not applied for a copyright to Buster Brown, but asserted a "common-law title"—what comics historian Don Markstein asserted is one of the earliest claims to creators' rights. The court decided the ''Heral ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Blood Of Satanus
Blood is a body fluid in the circulatory system of humans and other vertebrates that delivers necessary substances such as nutrients and oxygen to the cells, and transports metabolic waste products away from those same cells. Blood in the circulatory system is also known as ''peripheral blood'', and the blood cells it carries, ''peripheral blood cells''. Blood is composed of blood cells suspended in blood plasma. Plasma, which constitutes 55% of blood fluid, is mostly water (92% by volume), and contains proteins, glucose, mineral ions, hormones, carbon dioxide (plasma being the main medium for excretory product transportation), and blood cells themselves. Albumin is the main protein in plasma, and it functions to regulate the colloidal osmotic pressure of blood. The blood cells are mainly red blood cells (also called RBCs or erythrocytes), white blood cells (also called WBCs or leukocytes) and platelets (also called thrombocytes). The most abundant cells in vertebrate blood ar ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Detective-Judge Armitage
''Armitage'' is a science fiction series appearing in the British comic anthology the ''Judge Dredd Megazine'', created by Dave Stone and Sean Phillips in 1991. The protagonist is a Detective-Judge in Brit-Cit, a British mega-city in the universe of ''Judge Dredd''. He has also made occasional appearances in the main ''Judge Dredd'' series in '' 2000 AD'', as well as two spin-off novels and an audio drama. In the same way that Dredd was based partly on ''Dirty Harry'', Armitage owes something to the cynical but unbending police detectives seen in dramas such as ''Inspector Morse'' and ''Taggart''. Although an outstanding detective, he is difficult to work with and often clashes with his superiors in Brit-Cit's corrupt, class-ridden Justice Department. Like many such characters, he has a junior partner: usually Detective-Judge Treasure Steel, and in later stories upper-class Detective-Judge Timothy "Timbo" Parkerston-Trant.

External Links
An internal link is a type of hyperlink on a web page to another page or resource, such as an image or document, on the same website or domain. Hyperlinks are considered either "external" or "internal" depending on their target or destination. Generally, a link to a page outside the same domain or website is considered external, whereas one that points at another section of the same web page or to another page of the same website or domain is considered internal. These definitions become clouded, however, when the same organization operates multiple domains functioning as a single web experience, e.g. when a secure commerce website is used for purchasing things displayed on a non-secure website. In these cases, links that are "external" by the above definition can conceivably be classified as "internal" for some purposes. Ultimately, an internal link points to a web page or resource in the same root directory. Similarly, seemingly "internal" links are in fact "external" for ...
