This image for Always Gets His Man failed in the suggestion thread. Any other ideas?

The whole idea is of a cop who is impossibly good/heroic. Any other suggestions?

It may be darker than this trope implies, but Robocop actually *is* the most incorruptible cop in his world. And he is absolutely the Determinator.

I think a cyborg cop will look too much like Super Cop instead.

What I like about 5 is that a well known law-enforcer has obviously just arrested someone, and the trope explicitly says it can overlap with Super Cop, but you do have a point.

How about these:

Lets figure out what we want.

Images of impossibly skilled/honest/etc cops are Just a Face, but images of enhanced cops lean over into supercop. What type of image would suffice?

Or do we just need to not have a pic for this trope?

[up]I think that shows enough of the trope to be a good image.

The clock is up...consensus is weak on the Dredd pic/combo but I think it's better than nothing so I'll go ahead and put it up. Locking up.
