Off the top of the head...

1. The Cursed Earth
2. Alone in a Crowd
3. Compulsary Purchase
4. Unamerican Graffiti
5. Attack of the 50-Foot Woman

The Pit and others yet to be read, so just read things that sprang to mind. Hitting [Post] before I get other ideas.
Day of Chaos was quite good... Etc....

**PREDICTABLE CHOICES ALERT**

If its epics then

1 - The Cursed Earth;
2 - The Day the Law Died;
3 - The Judge Child Quest;
4 - The Apocalypse War;
5 - possibly Origins

You can't beat the early stuff in my opinion as the whole Dredd world was still so new and unexplored.

For me...

The apocalypse war, America, Necropolis, Day of chaos, and democracy now.

I'm desperate to read the pit, tour of duty, mandroid, and brothers of the blood. I've just ordered the entire pj maybe collection which I'm really looking forward to.

Very tempted to put Angelic in place of Missionary Man, but it's hard to reconcile its realistic tone with the comedy psychopaths we see in The Judge Child Quest. Deadworld's another worthy candidate.
