Rogue Trooper is a
science fiction strip in the
British comic 2000 AD, created by
Gerry Finley-Day and
Dave Gibbons. It follows the adventures of
Rogue, a
G.I. (or Genetic Infantryman, a
genetically modified, blue-skinned, manufactured elite soldier) and his three
comrades' search for the Traitor General. 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). He is genetically engineered to be immune to almost all known toxins, can submerge in strong
acid unaffected, and is able to withstand a vacuum in his bare skin.
