Having sensed Death's peril, his comrades Fear, Fire and Mortis crossed the dimension warp to rescue him. Death was eventually defeated by the combined efforts of Judges Dredd and Anderson, his body having been destroyed, and his spirit form held inside Judge Anderson, herself encased in the miracle plastic Boing on display in the Justice Department's Hall of Heroes. After 'judging' (i.e., killing) them and taking their dimension jumping warp devices, Judge Death travelled to Mega-City One, against the opinions of his colleagues, in order to 'dispense justice'. The Dark Judges subsequently murdered the entire population of their world.ĭimension-travelling visitors chanced upon the now 'Deadworld' and found the Dark Judges.

The Sisters would themselves become ethereal beings with hideous magical powers. With their help, he and his acolytes were able to become undead beings, thus being 'pure' to judge without hypocrisy. The Sisters were death cultists and mass murderers with supernatural powers, and Death fell in love the three of them committed acts on victims that he admitted sickened even him. Things changed when Death encountered Phobia and Nausea (the future Sisters of Death) in a cave. The society of the parallel universe they inhabited placed very little value on human life and many inhabitants were sadistic and violent, but even by the standards of their people the Dark Judges were vicious. The other three were slavishly devoted to him and his philosophy, and the four went around killing people on whatever justification they could find (Judge Fire sentenced a whole school to death for noise pollution). They were led by Judge Death, who had determined that all crime was committed by the living - thus, by his logic, all life was a crime. The Dark Judges were originally a group of four lawkeepers from a parallel dimension known as Deadworld.
