Dredd's investigation into the death of a seemingly unremarkable
sewage worker spirals into a waste management crisis that could destroy
all of Mega-City One!
Mega-City One has long used genetic modification on its waste workers to
control the deluge of filth that flows under the city each day. When
Dredd discovers that some of them have foregone that disfiguring
procedure in favor of hosting protective alien symbiotes, it sparks a
groundswell of anti-immigration fervor. Soon the toxic atmosphere spills
into the streets, undermining the very infrastructure that makes the
city tolerable. Can Dredd find a solution to save the now indispensable
aliens from the angry mobs?
Never have the satire and social commentary of Judge Dredd cut so
sharply, nor repudiated hate so emphatically, as in Toxic! And never
has that statement--or the humor and entertainment with which it is
delivered--been more necessary.
