''[[Rogue Trooper]]'' is a science fiction strip in the British comic ''[[2000 AD]]'', created by Gerry Finley-Day and Dave Gibbons and first published in 1981 and is ongoing.
Against a backdrop of a future war between two factions, the noble Southers and evil Norts, the comic follows Rogue, a G.I. ([[Super Soldier|Genetic Infantryman]]) and his three comrades' search for the Traitor General, a man in the Souther high command who sold the Southers' battle plans to the Norts, which led to the massacre of all the GIs except Rogue. His comrades are in the form of biochips (onto which a G.I.'s entire personality is downloaded at the time of death for later retrieval) and are named Gunnar (mounted on Rogue's rifle), Bagman (on his backpack) and Helm (on his helmet).
Line 15:
Most recently, the comic was adapted into a video game by [[Rebellion (creator)|Rebellion Developments]], who currently also publish ''2000 AD'' and have the rights to most of its characters. ''Rogue Trooper: Quartz Zone Massacre'' was released on the [[PlayStation 2]] and [[Xbox 360]], and [[PC]] in 2006, and the [[Wii]] in 2009. Though it features the characters and premise of the Rogue continuity, the story is very different, and much of the technology has been altered to make the gameplay more fun.
