the mellowing of dredd

[judge dreddd]

Consider the end of strip in 1356.. consider that dredd used to ( i hear ) shoot the hand off perps caught littering..

has dredd mellowed ?

has he become a rightous dude as opposed to strict instrument of the law ( as that nutter in les miserables is ).

now, will he soon be caught flower arranging and reading poetry eh ?

infection from judge pansy ?
its an idea for a story that ya kow !
you could have him getting softer over various strips before the
truth outs !

Judge Pansy? I think he's escaped my notice, somehow.

Is he the Big Meg equivalent of Walter the Softy? :-)
