Is there a list anywhere of mega city block names from the stories of Judge Dredd?
I met a guy in the pub and we got talking about comics and he told me he met a Dredd artist in Belfast a few years back and the artist said he might put his name in the background of a panel, I am just curious if it ever happened.
If it ended up as a bit of graffiti it might never be found, but if it was actually a block name there might be a chance of identifying it, if it exists at all.
thanks

The only one I can remember is John Caliber's City of Dredd which listed pretty much every location, but I think that stopped around 2013ish.
It could also be covered by a speech balloon.
What name are you looking for?
A totally incomplete category on a wiki may be useful (some day, probably not today).

Well, I'm just gonna say: if this was me, I've totally forgotten about it, sorry unnamed block guy!

the guy's name is "Noel Tate", do not appear to be on the wiki list anyway.
thanks P.J., I thought the only 3 names at him I knew might be from Northern Ireland, yours, Will Simpson & John McCrey, but he said there was a lot of drink involved and it was a while ago.
thanks for all your help.

Up to 179 blocks on the wiki (https://2000ad.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Mega-City_One_blocks) (none of which are Noel Tate).

Having just finished the 1983 annuals, now up to 210 named blocks (and conapts).
I think you'll find there's only one block in Mega City One...

Ah, Pete - a lovely piece.
Surely that scrofulitic old ruin has been condemned by now?

It has a preservation order on it, due to being the only block in MC-1 to house a functioning branch of Greggs.
A Greggs on every floor! Two on level 228!

"Synthi-pasty"? Is there any other kind?
