2000 AD #1536

Judge Dredd dominates this Henry Flint cover for 2000 AD Prog 1536 (2007), rendered in full armored authority — eagle-shouldered, Lawgiver in hand, with a chaotic cityscape of faces and mayhem swirling behind him. The bold declaration "His City. His Law." and the tagline "Fifty Years Policing the Most Violent Metropolis on Earth" set the tone perfectly for the John Wagner-written "Fifty-Year Man," with interior art by Patrick Goddard, colors by Chris Blythe, and lettering by Annie Parkhouse. It's a fittingly grand celebration of Mega-City One's most relentless lawman, presented with the kind of confident, no-nonsense energy that has kept 2000 AD essential reading for decades.
