Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Also Judge Dredd too since I'm pretty sure this exact thing happens in the mega city.Judge Dredd has "isocubes", though what that actually is varies by artist. I distinctly remember one panel (from the funniest comic: the one where he arrests himself and all his friends for a petty noise violation on Christmas, sentencing them and himself to a weekend in the isocubes) showing a stack of them and they're like, clear glass boxes with a chair in them.
lmao that plotline sounds awesome. Thanks for reminding me to try and pirate all the Dredd and AD stuff I can find.
I think this was one of the earlier ones, somewhere in between the moon sheriff arc and the one where they travel across the post apocalyptic wasteland that was the US I think? Pretty sure it's before any part of the big apocalypse war arcs that start with the space voyage arc.
Judge Dredd is a weird and silly setting and it's very easy to see how it got mashed together with Dune and legally-distinct-from-LotR Warhammer to make Warhammer 40K.
