British Update: He Is The Law! 2000 AD #2, 1st Judge Dredd
*Boys’ Adventure & War Comics: At the beginning of 1977, a comic was launched that captured the zeitgeist of the times, more anarchic and anti-establishment than anything that had come before it in British comics, no more so than in (paradoxically) the ultra-Establishment figure of Judge Dredd, the iconic anti-hero who has gone on to become legendary after debuting in issue #2, joining Mach-1, Invasion, Harlem’s Heroes, Flesh and the new Dan Dare as the star line-up. This copy of Dredd’s debut is the nicest we’ve seen for some time, flat and unmarked with tight staples and structurally very sound; pages and covers are cream to white, as is usually the way with the quality of paper these were printed on. No Free Gift, sadly, but a highly collectable copy.
