The bulk of stories were written by Belfast born Garth Ennis, who used it as a savage parody of Ireland and the stereotypes around it. Joyce asked Dredd if a perp was a "mental fella", meaning psi. Based on the bilingual name, Baile Átha Cliath - "town of the hurdled ford" - switched from being the modern Irish name of Dublin to the modern Irish name of its resulting megacity.
Smaller rural hab-villages exist away from the city but were mostly used by tourists in the 2110s.īy the 2130s, it had a Murphyville Spaceport (Spásfort Bhaile Átha Cliath) that had replaced the old Murphyville International Airport. In lifestyle and layout, it's similar to modern-day Dublin - but with much greater urban development, as St Stephen's Green was reduced to fifteen blades of grass and a shrub called Kevin until Dredd ran over it in 2113. Murphyville is large by modern standards but lacks the tall starscraper blocks of most megacities.
