How Dredd's Mega-City one survived.
In the Judge Dredd universe, the massive metropolis, Mega-City One, has proven to be as tough as the legendary street judge himself. The city has survived countless catastrophes and disruptive events over the decades, including one nuclear holocaust that laid waste to most of America. It managed to do so only because it was testing a new laser defense technology at the onset of the Atomic War.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Judge Dredd first appeared in 2000 AD, a weekly sci-fi comic book anthology magazine published in the United Kingdom by IPC Magazines. Ever since, Dredd stories have been primarily set in Mega-City One, with the fictional American city becoming an essential part of the Dredd mythos.
While not as popular as Gotham or Metropolis, Mega-City One nevertheless deserves its place alongside other iconic comic book cities.Surviving The Atomic Wars Was Only The Beginning For Mega-City One As told in Judge Dredd's “Origins” storyline – a 2006-2007 arc by the creative team of writer John Wagner and artist Carlos Ezquerra – Robert Lius Booth, governor of Mega-City Three, won a rigged election to become President of the United States in 2068.
Post-War Mega-City One Gave Birth To The Judge System The nuclear holocaust that followed would turn the majority of the United States mainland into a radioactive wasteland, except for only three Mega-Cities: the east coast’s Mega-City One, the west coast’s Mega-City Two, and Booth’s home turf, Mega-City Three, formerly part of Texas. As for the rest of the country, the other irradiated cities would soon become a vast desert, populated only by the mutated and the lawless.
Judge Dredd's Mega-City One was spared the same fate as the rest of the United States due to its experimental missile defense system. At the time of the Atomic War, Mega-Cities One, Two, and Three deployed anti-nuclear laser defense systems. These were successful in deflecting the retaliatory strikes that wiped out the rest of the country, once President Booth had unleashed the conflagration.
