Big Meg One – Primer 5 – Chopper

In the second mega episode of our Judge Dredd Megazine Primer series Eli and Conrad are looking at some classic Dredd adventures to learn more about the Lawman of the Future. This episode we’re talking about one of Judge Dredd’s greatest enemies, Marlon Shakespere, aka Chopper. Though with Chopper it’s more like Dredd is one of his greatest villains! He’s a great example of a citizen of mega city one, and he has a citizen story. One where Judge Dredd actually plays a minimal role. When Chopper’s there he’s the star, and Dredd exists as one of any number of Mega-City One Judges out to get him.
