Supreme Judge Josef Traktorfaktori
Born in the pages of 2000 AD #743 in 1991, Supreme Judge Josef Traktorfaktori is one of the more memorably named figures to emerge from the Copper/Modern Age of British comics — a product of the gloriously inventive world that Fleetway Publications built around the Judge Dredd universe. Created by Francis Lynn and Eric Bradbury, this character shares the sprawling, high-stakes corridors of power with heavyweights like Judge Dredd, Chief Judge McGruder, and Judge Hershey, which tells you something about the calibre of company he keeps. Across a publishing footprint that stretched all the way to 2012 — spanning 2000 AD, Judge Dredd the Megazine, and the Complete Case Files collections — Traktorfaktori carved out a niche presence over two decades in one of comics' most beloved sci-fi sandboxes. With a title as grand as Supreme Judge and a name you won't soon forget, he's a rewarding discovery for any dedicated explorer of the 2000 AD universe.
