Three of his fellow troopers live on in the form of bio-chips.

He made it his goal to find the traitor and get revenge. Rogue Trooper and the Genetic Infantrymen were ambushed when the Traitor General tipped off the opposition to their deployment into Nort territory. The character belonged to IPC Media up until 1999 and thereafter to Rebellion. The series was hailed for its excellent artwork thanks to the craftsmanship of Gibbons and other artists such as Cam Kennedy, Colin Wilson and Brett Ewins. Rogue Trooper was created by Gerry Finley-Day and Dave Gibbons and first appeared in 2000AD prog 228 (1981). Their mission, as they remained stranded in the Nort territories of Nu Earth, was to hunt down the Traitor General and the Nort commanders working with him to bring down the Southers. He saved their bio-chips from dying out by implanting them into his rifle, bag and helmet. The underdog of the one sided war, Rogue, survived and managed to salvage the bio-chips - bionic memory implants designed to save the personalities and memories of dead GI's for resurrection/intelligence gathering - of three of his slaughtered comrades Gunnar, Helm and Bagman. The Genetic Infantrymen were slaughtered in a military disaster that came to be known as The Quartz Zone Massacre. His story takes place on a planet called Nu Earth which has been ravaged by years of civil war and can no longer support human life without the aid of specialized chemical suits and sealed domes.Ĭreated by the Southers as a super-soldier to overcome the dirty war tactics of the Norts, super-strength and superior battle skills unfortunately could not protect them from betrayal at the hands of the Traitor General and their campaign on the north was ended quickly since the Norts had learned how to defeat the GI's. Rogue Trooper is a genetically engineered soldier, created by Milli-Com, to be able to thrive in hostile and toxic environments and be resistant against injuries that would otherwise kill regular human soldiers.
