2000 AD #2464

A cracked and bloodied Judge's helmet lies discarded on the ground, splattered crimson pooling beneath it — a stark, unsettling image that sets the tone for the new Judge Dredd story, "Death of a Judge Part One," beginning in this 2026 issue of 2000 AD. Mike Perkins's cover art, rendered with striking golden-hued radiating lines and vivid blood-red accents, makes the damage to that unmistakable visor feel genuinely ominous. With John Wagner writing and Chris Blythe's colors sharpening every grim detail, this prog delivers the kind of tension that keeps readers turning pages.
