Judge Warner

Stepping out of the gritty pages of Judge Dredd the Megazine in 1991, Judge Warner is a Copper/Modern Age creation from the legendary John Wagner and artist John Hicklenton, born into one of comics' most uncompromising fictional universes. Over a surprisingly durable 26-year presence across Fleetway's Megazine titles and The Mega Collection, this character has kept remarkably distinguished company — sharing pages with Judge Dredd himself, Detective Judge Armitage, and Rookie Detective Judge Treasure Steel, placing Warner squarely in the harder-edged, procedural corners of the 2000 AD world. With 17 catalogued appearances and at least one collector-significant key issue to their name, Judge Warner is the kind of deep-cut character that rewards fans who dig past the headline names into the rich, sprawling tapestry that makes British comics so endlessly rewarding to explore.
