Fergee is a fictional character in the Judge Dredd universe, first introduced in prog 100 of the UK comic book 2000 AD.

Fictional character biography

Finding himself on the wrong side of the law more than once, Fergee finally sought refuge from the Judges in the Undercity. Setting up home near the highly polluted Ohio River - aka the "Big Smelly" - he soon proved himself the 'top dog' amongst the mutants and outcasts who lived there. When Judge Dredd crashed through the city bottom in a roadliner, during the anti-Cal rebellion, Fergee saw the Judge and his fellow rebels as intruders on his territory. He introduced himself as the "King of the Big Smelly" and took on Dredd in hand-to-club combat, losing.

Fergee then led Dredd back up to Mega-City One, helping him capture a patrol-wagon, upon which Dredd appointed him an honorary Judge. He helped Dredd dispatch a group of Kleggs who had taken over Dredd's apartment in Rowdy Yates Conapts, so that Walter the Wobot could be enlisted to try and steal one of Cal's Judge briefing tapes.

Heroism

Fergee enjoyed his new position and took his responsibilities more seriously than even Dredd could have dared hope during the final battle to depose Cal. Despite two bullet wounds in his chest, when the mad Chief Judge tried to press the fatal button which would gas the entire city, Fergee charged into him and carried him off the top of the Statue of Judgement. He fell to his death along with Cal, but Judge Dredd ensured that Fergee's sacrifice would always be remembered in Mega-City One by erecting commemorative statues of him all over the city.

Fergee's catchphrase and battlecry is "Easy the Ferg!"

Film Adaptation

In the 1995 film adaptation, Fergee is played by Rob Schneider. In this version, he appears somewhat of an anti-hero as he is also on the wrong side of the law, but he also helps Judge Dredd sneak back into Mega-City One. He also de-activates Rico's Warbot to rescue Judge Hershey.

The autobot shoots him in the torso, but he is assumed to have survived as he was conscious and speaking clearly - requesting that they pull over by an Automated teller machine, in fact - as he was loaded into an ambulance at the end of the movie.
