HistoryText
  • Judge Griffin was the Principal of the Academy of Law in Mega-City One until pressed back into service during the fight against the insane Judge Caligula. Following Cal's death, Griffin was nominated for the position of Chief Judge by Dredd himself, and proved a capable and just leader , until he was captured and brainwashed by Sov-Block agents during The Apocalypse War. To prevent Griffin being used against Mega-City One, Dredd was forced to assassinate him, though Griffin managed to fight off the brainwashing and admit his 'treachery' live on air before dying . He was succeeded as Chief Judge by Judge McGruder.
