Al's Baby is a comedy comic series that featured in the Judge Dredd Megazine and its weekly parent publication 2000 AD in the 1990s. It tells the story of Al 'The Beast' Bestardi, a mob enforcer compelled into male pregnancy to give his terminally ill boss and father-in-law, Don Luigi Sarcoma, a grandchild.
The series was created by writer John Wagner and artist Carlos Ezquerra and was the first series to appear in the Judge Dredd Megazine that was not set in the same world as Wagner and Ezquerra's most famous creation, Judge Dredd.
