2000 AD #389

Judge Dredd looms large on Ron Smith's cover, pistol raised and full uniform on display, while a trio of inset panels poses the provocative questions — "A Machine? A Myth? Or a Man?" — alongside a close-up of Dredd's granite jaw and his iconic badge. It's a compelling visual tease for "A Case for Treatment," suggesting that Mega-City One's toughest lawman may be facing scrutiny of a very different kind. This October 1984 prog delivers the kind of sharp, punchy cover design that made 2000 AD a weekly must-read.
