 STATUS
 Psychopathic cyborg
 
 DATELINE
 2147 AD
 
 LOCATION
 Mega-City One, sprawling metropolis of the 22nd century
 
 WEAPONRY
 Mean relies on his butting skills in a fight. He has a dial on his forehead that controls his temper - on 1 he's Surly, on 2 he's Mean, on 3 he's Vicious and on 4 he's Brutal
 
 SOUNDBITE
 "I'm going up to a 4 on ya!"
 
 TRADEMARK
 Butts anybody he comes across
 
 MOTIVATION
 Downright stupidity and a psychopathic love of violence
 
 PARTNERS
 Mean was formerly part of the notorious Angel Gang - Pa, Link, Junior and Fink - who operated out of the Cursed Earth. After they tangled with Judge Dredd, he's now the only surviving member!
 
 NOTES
 Mean originally was the black sheep of the family because of his gentle nature and loved picking flowers. Pa Angel couldn't stand to see a son of his being such a wuss, so he ordered a surgeon to replace his right arm with a mechanical claw and implanted the dial into his brain, turning him into a violent nutcase!
