Back in 1987 the seventh part of the
Judge Dredd epic 'Oz' featured the
first appearance of the
Judda who look like
Judge Dredd drawn by
Jack
Kirby really. Artist
Brendan McCarthy brought these crazy looking clone
Judges to life and I couldn't believe me eyes when I first saw them.
'Oz' was a long story and it had a wide selection of artists working on
it, thankfully
Brendan seemed to cover most of the issues that involved
the Judda, in fact I think
Will Simpson was the only other artist to
draw them in the strip (although
John Higgins did some amazing covers
featuring them) and he did a great job but it lacked the flare and
imagination that
Brendan added. I'd have loved to seen
Cam Kennedy's
take on them.
I couldn't resist having a go a drawing one after re-reading 'Oz' the
other week, I enjoyed it so much I drew another one. One of the great
things about the Judda is that they have no set uniform so any crazy
over the top Judge uniform is fine, well as long as you don't forget to
give them massive boots and a 'power staff/rod/thingy'.
