Cadet Bodine

Cadet Bodine is a trainee judge operating in the brutal, sprawling Mega-City One, serving alongside Judge Dredd, Judge DeMarco, and fellow cadets Stark and Renga in the gritty futuristic law-enforcement world of 2000 AD.

Stepping onto the pages of 2000 AD in 1997, Cadet Bodine is a product of the British comics tradition at its most inventive, brought to life by the legendary John Wagner and artist Jim Murray. A Copper/Modern Age creation, Bodine inhabits the gritty, uncompromising world of Mega-City One, sharing adventures alongside the likes of Judge Dredd, Judge DeMarco, and fellow cadets Stark and Renga — about as formidable a cast of company as the 2000 AD universe can offer. Across nearly two decades of publication and preserved in the celebrated Judge Dredd: The Complete Case Files, Bodine may have a modest footprint in the catalog, but that includes a key collector-significant issue that cements their place in the lore. For fans who love diving deep into the texture of Dredd's world beyond the headline names, Cadet Bodine is exactly the kind of discovery that rewards the dedicated reader.
