“I am the LAW!”
Judge Dredd first appeared in the pages of British comics magazine 2000AD in 1977 and has appeared in nearly every issue since!
Dredd’s reality is a dystopian America where much of the landscape has been devastated by war. The remaining population resides in Mega City One, a megalopolis situated along the eastern seaboard. An incredibly dense population and sky-high unemployment rate make Mega City One a breeding ground for criminals and psychopaths. The madmen dwelling inside the city walls are nothing compared to the mutated terrors running wild in the Cursed Earth outside them. No normal police force could hold the peace in such a world, that’s where The Judge System come in! The Judges act as Judge, Jury, and Executioner, doling out harsh sentences right on the street, and no one does it better than Judge Dredd.
