    Garth Ennis to pen Rogue Trooper story

    Robot OverlordBy Robot OverlordDecember 19, 20222 Mins Read

    2000 AD announced writer Garth Ennis will write a new Rogue Trooper story for the company in 2023.

    Joining Ennis on the art is Patrick Goddard on a 13-issue run that kicks off in April 2023.

    In this new tale, Night’s Horizon is the period two weeks out of every year when Nu Earth’s orbit carries it closest to the black hole. The Norts call it Zvartchvintern; the first settlers knew it as Lightfall. Things have a reputation for going a little… screwy around this time. Now, Rogue Trooper is about to experience those effects first-hand…

    In a press release, Garth Ennis said, “For me Rogue Trooper is as vital a part of classic 2000 ADas Judge Dredd, Strontium Dog, Robo-Hunter, Nemesis the Warlock, or Sláine, and I well remember wandering the wastes of Nu Earth with Rogue and the bio-chips on their hunt for the Traitor General. The stories that instantly come to mind are ‘All Hell on the Dix-I Front’, ‘Fort Neuro’, ‘Eye of the Traitor’, ‘You Only Die Twice’ and ‘To The Ends Of Nu Earth’ – I hope ‘Blighty Valley’ will prove a worthy successor to such unadulterated gems.”

    Created by writer Gerry Finley-Day and artist Dave Gibbons, and debuting in 2000 AD in 1981, Rogue Trooper is the last of the G.I.s – Genetically-engineered Infantry designed to survive the poisoned and war-torn world of Nu Earth. Betrayed by his own side, he is a lone warrior stalking these blasted lands in search of the notorious Traitor General,  accompanied by his dead comrades- their personalities encoded on ‘bio chips’ and inserted into his equipment.
