2000 AD #435

Judge Dredd dominates the cover of 2000 AD Prog 435 (September 1985), rendered by Robin Smith in full armored authority — badge gleaming, weapon at the ready, and that unmistakable golden eagle helmet framing his stern jaw as the bold headline declares "Dredd Dispenses Justice." The cover teases new thrills from both Robohunter and Nemesis strips alongside Pat Mills and Bryan Talbot's opening chapter of Nemesis the Warlock Book V, making this a packed installment of Britain's favourite weekly. As a bonus, 20 walkie-talkie freebies were up for grabs — a very 1985 treat to sweeten an already compelling prog.
