Catalogue note

Launch issue of DC’s 1994–96 original Judge Dredd ongoing and the starting object for its alternate US continuity.

Writer: Andrew Helfer

Artist: Andrew Helfer · Michael Avon Oeming

Cover: Michael Avon Oeming

Edition: US direct-sales first-print edition.

Legacy record ID: dredd-dc-01

Why this object matters

DC’s first original Judge Dredd issue is a strong record of the character’s attempted American-market and continuity adaptation. The first-print launch status has particular relevance alongside TMR’s British Dredd holdings, while remaining distinct from Dredd’s actual debut.

Evidence limits: No new physical inspection or collation was performed. Copy-specific conclusions remain limited to the retained catalogue and accession evidence.

Score and assessment method

Archive Importance: 8 / 10.

This is a curatorial judgement, not a measurement accurate to one tenth or a market valuation. Read the explanation and its evidence limits together.
