Description
Summary:2117 AD: Hondo City - the Japan of Judge Dredd's world - straddles the border between ancient Samurai values and bleeding edge technology. Law is enforced by the Judge Inspectors, merging ancient and modern into a justice system ready for this new world. But the past is hard to forget - especially for Judge Inspector Shimura. Determined to stop the organized "Yakuza" crime syndicates, he fights corruption and crime wherever he can find it, with the help of Aiko Inaba, a rare female Judge trainee in a world that ignores women. But how far is Shimura willing to go to win his war?
