Brit-Cit (Robo-Hunter)

Brit-Cit is the name by which the former United Kingdom is known in the mid 22nd Century. Veteran Robo-Hunter Sam C Slade moved there after being significantly de-aged during the Verdus incident and subsequently barred from operating in New York as a result of antagonising the Amalgamated Androids Union. Slade discovered Brit-Cit to be a place where virtually every job imaginable was done by robots (and where, indeed, humans were often barely visible on the streets) which actually frequently irritated him despite the obvious advantages of living in a robot based society for a man whose profession was hunting rogue robots. Sam felt that the robots of Brit-Cit had ceased to know their place, an understandable attitude given that at the time, even the government were robots, led by the formidable Prime Droid Iron Aggie. the country's football team were all robots, too, though in keeping with decades of tradition, most of them were foreigners. Slade eventually moved back to New York.


 * Note: the version of Brit-Cit seen in the Robo-Hunter series appears not to be the same one seen in various stories set in the Judge Dredd universe.
 * Brit-Cit first appeared in 2000 AD prog 259
