Politics was a Judge Dredd comic story originally published in 2000 AD Prog 656.
Summary[]
Vidstar Vanilla Batcave is promoting her latest vid "Trains, Plains and Democrats" in Mega-City One, and encouraging citizens to think about democracy in the City.
Worried that this will lead to unrest, the Judges fake her kidnapping by a group called Sons of the Iron Lady. Batcave is then given electro-shock therapy and a face-change, and deported to an off-world colony.
Characters[]
Connections[]
- Dredd's harsh attitude towards Batcave is reflective of his previously stated disdain for democracy [1].
Notes[]
- The Sons of the Iron Lady can be taken to be a commentary on Margaret Thatcher, British Prime Minister between 1979 and 1990.
