The Dead Man, Cover, 2000AD #652

'The Dead Man' garnered four separate covers during its run, three by John Ridgway, one by Steve Cook: this is the first of the Ridgway trilogy. The Cursed Earth looks truly cursed in this evocative piece, as Judge Dredd (yes, that is him!) somehow finds the willpower to drag his acid-scarred body through the radioactive wastes: a dead man who refuses to die. Astonishing work by a remarkable artist, for a stone-cold classic story.
