2000 AD #1275

Judge Dredd fills the cover of Prog 1275, rendered in bold, muscular style by Cliff Robinson — the lawman's iconic helmet and badge front-and-centre as he levels his Lawgiver pistol dead at the reader, daring anyone to test him. The cover line "Talk to the Gun, Creep… 'Cos the Face Ain't Listening!" perfectly captures Dredd's no-nonsense attitude, and the close-cropped, confrontational composition leaves absolutely no doubt who's in charge of Mega-City One. Inside, 2002 readers were treated to five thrills including "Born Under a Bad Sign," brought to life by the creative team of Robbie Morrison and Peter Doherty with lettering by Tom Frame.
