Powers and Abilities: Dredd is a superbly fit, fanatically devoted member of the most highly-trained law-enforcement agency in history. He is tough, brave, intelligent and resourceful. His only super-human talent is his ability to see frequencies beyond the normal human range, which dates from the time his eyes were replaced with vat-grown biologically enhanced models, after he was brutally blinded.
History: Too much to go into details. Dredd has appeared in almost 1200 weekly "progs" of 2000 AD, plus several hundred issues of his own Megazine. Suffice to say that Dredd has been dispensing his own brand of Justice on the streets of Mega-City One for over 40 years, and is still the hardest Judge on the force.
Mega-City One, like Batman's Gotham, is practically a character in its own right. A fascist dystopia, alternately terrifying and hilarious, MC-1 is an enormous sprawl of semi-autonomous city-blocks, lying between the radioactive Cursed Earth and the equally toxic Black Atlantic.
On a normal day, MC-1 can be pretty hostile. The pressures of life in the future drive many citizens violently insane, and common-or-garden violent crime is an everyday hazard. From time to time, however, things get really bad. In the last twenty years, MC-1 has witnessed civil war, dinosaur rampage, block mania (an infectious disease characterised by rampant xenophobia, pack instinct and violent outbursts), full-scale nuclear war, and invasion by extra-dimensional "Dark Judges" determined to kill the entire citizenry.
Description: Judge Joe Dredd is the Law. He's a big man, although his bulk appears variable, depending on the artist. He has a large, pugnacious jaw, and a habitual scowl, which is the source of his nick-name among the younger judges: "Old Stony Face".
He is never seen out of uniform, nor even without his helmet. The uniform is based on a black skin-tight body-suit, of a leather-like synthetic material. Boots, knee-pads and gloves are olive green, and thickly reinforced. At the right shoulder is a large pad, balanced on the left by a stylised eagle. A badge on the right breast bears his name, "Dredd". A chain hangs in a loop from the badge. A belt, with eagle buckle, carries ammunition, cuffs, etc. Shoulder-pad, eagle, badge, chain and belt are all coloured gold, as are his elbow-pads. The helmet is black, with red trim and a darkened visor.
Personality: None, really. Dredd is pretty much a cipher, a tool in the brutal machine that is the Law in Mega-City One. He doesn't have many friends, or a love life, or any other kind of a life really. From the moment of his artificial conception, his life has been dedicated to the law. He has shown occasional signs of human sentiment, but they never seem to last for very long.
DC Universe History: Probably not. Batman, of course has met him a few times. The Earth of Mega City One is pretty much established as a dimension not far removed from the DCU.
