Missionary Man is British comic strip. It debuted in the Judge Dredd Megazine in May 1993 with the introductory 7-page story "Salvation At The Last Chance Saloon", illustrated by Frank Quitely. It established that tall Preacher Cain rides the Cursed Earth performing "special sermons" in the radiation-poisoned towns, tutoring the damned with a bible and his guns. In this first outing, having educated and decimated a table of gambling mutant heavyweights he rides into the sunset, tossing a bible at the surviving townspeople - which contains a thermonuclear explosive.
In 1998 the strip transitioned to the weekly 2000 AD.

The character also makes a cameo appearance in the Judge Dredd novel Cursed Earth Asylum, by David Bishop (Virgin Books, December 1993, ).
