Judge Schultz

Judge Schultz is a lawman operating in Mega-City One, the sprawling dystopian metropolis of the Judge Dredd universe, serving alongside figures like Judge Dredd and Chief Judge Goodman as part of the city's authoritarian judicial police force.

Born into the gritty, satirical world of British comics' Bronze Age, Judge Schultz made their debut in the legendary pages of 2000 AD and Starlord #86 in 1978, brought to life by writer John Howard and the incomparable artist Brian Bolland. Schultz inhabits the same lawless, darkly comic Mega-City One that plays host to icons like Judge Dredd, Chief Judge Goodman, and the sinister Deputy Judge Cal — rarefied company in one of comics' most celebrated universes. With a presence stretching across nearly three decades and collected in the definitive Judge Dredd: The Complete Case Files, this is a character woven into the fabric of a saga that defined British comics for generations. Modest in total appearances but graced with a key-issue credit and Bolland's unmistakable linework on their debut, Judge Schultz is a rewarding find for any serious 2000 AD collector.
