Judge DeMarco

Judge DeMarco is a Judge operating in the world of Judge Dredd's Mega-City One, serving as a street judge within the Mega-City justice system. She is known for her investigative instincts and moral complexity, navigating the brutal law-enforcement culture of a dystopian future.

Few characters in British comics earn a 24-year tenure in the legendary pages of 2000 AD, but Judge DeMarco has done exactly that — debuting in 1995 courtesy of creator Amanda Fletcher and carving out a lasting place in one of comics' most beloved anthologies. A Copper/Modern Age creation, DeMarco shares that distinctive Fleetway universe with a remarkable cast of characters — from the epic Nikolai Dante and the ancient warrior Sláine to the roguish Finnigan Sinister — which speaks to the rich, sprawling world this character inhabits. With three key-issue appearances flagged by collectors and a presence stretching from 1995 all the way to 2019, including runs in Judge Dredd: The Complete Case Files, this is a figure whose staying power in a fiercely competitive anthology is a story in itself. For fans of British comics at their most inventive, Judge DeMarco is well worth seeking out.
