2000 AD #872

Prog 872 of 2000 AD delivers a commanding Nick Percival cover that says everything about Mega-City One's uncompromising law — a towering Judge Dredd looms over a group of subdued, beaten-down figures, his Lawgiver holstered and his badge unmistakable, radiating the kind of authority that doesn't invite argument. The bold tagline "So You Want to Be a Judge?" adds a sardonic edge that feels very much at home in the Galaxy's Greatest Comic. Inside, Mark Millar's "Crime Prevention" is one of four strips — Big Dave, Soul Gun, Mother Earth, and Revere — each reaching their final episodes, making this a particularly packed January 1994 prog.
