Description'Judge!'Written by John Wagner under the 'Keef Ripley' pseudonym in order to throw readers off the scent and superbly illustrated by John Ridgway in old school black and white, the dead man story for me is an absolute classic, and IMO was far better than the Necropolis story it foreshadowed. Though I suspect most people had worked out the dead man's real identity long before the big reveal, I can still remember the sense of shock I had from seeing the cover to Prog 661. Much re-reading of this story then took place. So I'm super happy to have a page from that particular issue of 2000ad, and nicely signed by John as well! If you should get the chance to read the collected story then please do - its fantastic stuff. Social/Sharing |

Another lovely page, Iain. The Dead Man threw me completely at the time, which was great. Even re-reading this now, knowing the twist, it's still a great story - a classic, really. Wonderful, atmospheric art by Ridgeway - a very good fit artist-wise for this story.
