2000 AD #1187

Prog 1187 spotlights "Young Dredd" with a striking cover by Cliff Robinson — a pint-sized cadet Judge Dredd stands in full uniform before a looming, full-grown Judge's silhouette cast dramatically against a wall, teasing "the shocking truth about Joe and Rico!" Inside, John Wagner continues "Blood Cadets Part 2" with art by Simon Fraser, colors by Gary Caldwell, and lettering by Tom Frame, alongside further installments of Nikolai Dante, Sláine, Pussyfoot 5, and Missionary Man. A well-packed prog from 2000 that captures the enduring pull of Mega-City One's toughest lawman, even in his earliest days.
