How does this powerful Judge make his menacing presence felt in Black Ops Cold War? First, he needs a conduit: Ingo Beck of the Warsaw Pact, a demolitions and bomb-disposal expert who, despite his calm demeanor, appreciates Judge Dredd and his firm stance on lawbreakers. With the power to sentence and, if necessary, execute, backed with an array of weaponry, he’s the force of order, standing against a tide of anarchy. In the vast twenty-second-century metropolis, every citizen is a potential perp, and Dredd is the epitome of summary justice. Uncompromising and unwavering in his commitment to the law, Dredd strikes terror in the hearts of any criminal with his mere presence. He is not a typical “superhero,” but rather the definition of law and order, as revealed in his backstory:Ĭloned from the founder of the Judges, the “Father of Justice” Eustace Fargo, Joe Dredd was engineered to be among Mega-City One’s greatest law enforcers, and his reputation as the toughest, most respected and feared of the zero-tolerance cops precedes him. Introduced to the United Kingdom in 1977 and brought to the United States in 1983, a year before the “current events” of Black Ops Cold War, Judge Dredd is a household name within the European comic book world.
