Mean Machine (2000 AD)

==Summary==
Mean Machine Angel was one of the infamous Angel Gang that terrorized the wastes of Texas City for decades before their fateful encounter with Judge Dredd and Judge Hershey. Once a kind-hearted and gentle boy, Mean was the black sheep of his violent family due to his love for animals and appreciation for life. However, all that changed when his pa forced him to undergo horrific surgery that turned him into the killer machine.
Considered Dredd's arch nemesis, Mean Machine would go through a redemption arc in which he found love and decided to do better for his new wife. However, it seemed at some point he fell back into his evil ways but was eventually deemed a non-threat to Mega City-One as his hardware wore down.
