Most of the Dredger stories in the archive were lightly edited and represented in a toned down form. Acts of violence were removed, language was tamed and, most strangely, Dredger was no longer ‘dirty’. He was tough, he was gritty, but he was fair, and didn’t kill anybody unless he absolutely needed to. Even then, it was usually in self-defence. The two stories below were edited for recycled use at a later date, but here we have Dredger’s last hurrah, uncut from the 23rd and 30th October.
