Chief Judge Hershey

Few characters in the pages of 2000 AD carry the weight of authority quite like Chief Judge Hershey, who first strode onto the scene in 1994's Judge Dredd Yearbook #1995, brought to life by Gordon Rennie and Roberto Corona. Rising through the brutal, neon-lit world of Mega-City One, she has endured as one of Rebellion's most compelling figures across an impressive 31-year publishing run — a testament to just how deeply she's embedded herself in the DNA of British comics. With 214 catalog appearances spanning 2000 AD, the Judge Dredd Megazine, and The Complete Case Files, she shares her world with legends like Joe Dredd, Psi Judge Anderson, and Johnny Alpha, keeping genuinely elite company. Two key collector issues mark her legacy, making her not just a fixture of the Modern Age but a character any serious fan of the Judge Dredd universe will want to track down.
