Ezquerra's vision of the city – with massive tower blocks and endless roads suspended vast distances above the ground with no visible means of support – was so futuristic that it prompted a rethink, and a whole new city was proposed.
However, when artist Carlos Ezquerra drew his first story for the series, a skyscraper in the background of one panel looked so futuristic that editor Pat Mills instructed him to draw a full-page poster of the city. When the series Judge Dredd was being developed in 1976–77 it was originally planned that the story would be set in New York, in the near future. From its first appearance it has been associated with New York City's urban sprawl originally presented as a future New York, it was retconned as the centre of a "Mega-City One" in the very next story. A post-nuclear megalopolis covering much of what is now the Eastern United States and some of Canada, the city's exact geography depends on the writer and artist working the story. Mega-City One is a fictional city that features in the Judge Dredd comic book series and related media.
