Judge Patton

A minor but genuine piece of Bronze Age British comics history, Judge Patton stepped onto the page in 1978's 2000 AD #62, brought to life by the legendary Pat Mills and Mike McMahon in the early, electric days of that groundbreaking IPC anthology. Sharing the gritty future-lawman world with the likes of Judge Dredd, Spikes Harvey Rotten, and Tweak, Patton occupies a corner of one of comics' most beloved and enduring universes. The character's presence across 2000 AD and Judge Dredd: The Complete Case Files stretches impressively into the 2000s, a testament to how richly populated and carefully preserved that world remains — and for dedicated completists, tracking down every figure who walked those mean Mega-City streets is half the joy.
