Predator vs. Judge Dredd is an intercompany crossover featuring the galaxy's greatest lawman and the galaxy's greatest hunter. It was originally published in 1997 in serial form in Judge Dredd Megazine and a three-issue miniseries by Dark Horse Comics. It was then collected as a trade paperback.

Characters[]

• Judge Dredd
• Judge Schaefer, a Judge from who is the great-great-granddaughter of Major Alan "Dutch" Schaefer (Arnold Schwarzenegger's character in the original film).

Plot[]

The Predator enters the urban jungle of Mega-City One to hunt a challenging prey – the Judges themselves. As the Judges' heads start accumulating in the Predator's trophy room, it is down to Dredd and Schaefer to stop the hunt.

When discussing the Predator, the Judges say it had visited New York. This never happened in the film but did in the Predator comic book story Concrete Jungle, written by Mark Verheiden (which parallels a lot of the themes in the second film).
