Who is Cadet Giant?

Cadet Giant is a young trainee Judge in Mega-City One who comes under the tutelage of Judge Dredd, undergoing the brutal Academy of Law program that shapes all of the dystopian city's lawmen. His mentor-student relationship with Dredd anchors his early adventures.

Bursting onto the pages of 2000 AD in 1989, Cadet Giant is a product of the British comics powerhouse that gave the world some of the most distinctive science-fiction storytelling of the Copper Age β€” co-created by the legendary Dave Gibbons alongside Will Simpson. Over nearly three decades of appearances across 2000 AD, the Judge Dredd Megazine, and the Complete Case Files collections, this character has kept remarkable company, sharing adventures with icons like Judge Dredd, Psi Judge Anderson, and SlΓ‘ine. That kind of enduring presence in Fleetway's flagship titles, alongside the galaxy's greatest lawman himself, marks Cadet Giant as a figure well worth tracking down for any serious fan of British comics' golden era of storytelling.
