Jack Point aka "the Simping Detective" is a character in the comic Judge Dredd Megazine, a spin-off from 2000 AD. He was created by Simon Spurrier and Frazer Irving.
He was originally a Mega-City One Street Judge but took to working undercover ("Wally Squad"), pretending to be a private investigator: his cover story is that he was dismissed as a Judge for excessive use of force. As part of his disguise he pretends to be a simp (see below). He works in Sector 13, known as Angeltown, a notoriously corrupt sector of Mega-City One run by the mysterious Boss, and is well known for his clown garb, distinctive noir-pastiche speech patterns, high perversity, and un-judicial drinking habits (particularly Jack Daniels).
