Captain Skank

A creature of the gritty Bronze Age British comics scene, Captain Skank first materialized in the pages of 2000 AD in 1981, conjured by the formidable creative partnership of Alan Grant and Carlos Ezquerra. Operating in the same anarchic universe as Judge Dredd, Nikita Kramm, and Chief Judge Griffin, this character inhabits one of comics' most uncompromisingly dark and satirical worlds. With appearances collected across Judge Dredd: The Complete Case Files and the Judge Dredd Annual, Captain Skank's footprint may be compact, but the company kept — and the creators responsible — makes every panel worth seeking out.
