List of Judge Dredd Artists & Writers

[Robert Frazer]

Hey there everyone, I'm afraid that this is a fairly short question with not much discussion but can I please ask: is there a list anywhere which just sets out in one place all of the writers and artists who've been credited on a Judge Dredd strip over the years? There is a short one with some of the more famous artists on the Judge Dredd Wiki but it's clearly quite thin on the ground and not comprehensive. Is there anywhere better to look?

[Funt Solo]

Barney says hi.

There may be other writers who haven't made your list...

[Funt Solo]

Yes. It is a silly list. I don't even know what it's for.

[Dandontdare]

Can we be finally told who William Nilley was?

[AlexF]

Here's a variation on the list of Dredd writers, in order of who has done most:

and while I'm at it, here are the artists, too.
https://heroesof2000ad.blogspot.com/2015/04/interlude-dreddcount-part-2_29.html

Although these stats are based on 2015 data, so woefully incorrect by today's standards!
I must update them at some point, yup.

[I, Cosh]

This means the Prog, the Meg, any annual, special or yearbook but not DC or IDW Dredd, Metro or Daily Star. It does include Heavy Metal Dredd, crossovers, the movie continuity and Cadet Dredd strips, but nothing else.

There are 56 credited writers:

A handful of strips are still shown as...

Then there are eleven more writers who have contributed only text stories. Including a couple of familar faces from the boards:

Jonathan Morris
Jonathan Clements
Robert Murphy

Doubt I'll be arsed to do the artists unless I find out I should actually be doing my tax returns at the weekend or something.

What about America, hmmmm?  What about the guy that wrote that? You're clearly in league with Big Casefiles.

Thanks a lot for the information everyone, much appreciated.

Well done to I, Cosh for producing that list - I know how long it must have taken to look 'em up in Barney then format all the links on this board!
