Instantly identifiable thanks to his blue skin, Rogue is the last male of his kind; all of his other brothers-in-arms were killed in an ambush known as the \u2018Quartz Zone Massacre\u2019. <\/p>\n<p>While no other GIs remain, Rogue is accompanied on his missions by three of his former squadmates \u2013 Bagman, Gunnar, and Helm \u2013 whose personalities and memories have been preserved as digital entities. Each GI\u2019s mind is stored on a \u201cbiochip\u201d, a technology that can interface with many forms of equipment. Rogue uploads the minds of his allies into his own gear, and as a result his backpack, gun, and helmet talk to him constantly during his adventures.  <\/p>\n<p>In the upcoming movie, Rogue is played by actor Aneurin Barnard, who you may recognise from Christopher Nolan\u2019s Dunkirk. As for his equipment comrades, Jack Lowden voices Gunnar, Daryl McCormack plays Helm, and Reece Shearsmith is Bagman. <\/p>\n<section data-transform=\"image-with-caption\" data-image-url=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2024\/01\/29\/rogue-trooper-explainer-228-cover-1706539901776.jpg\" data-image-title=\"Colour cover art for Rogue Trooper's very first appearance.

The GIs were the invention of the democratic Southers in an effort to gain the upper hand against the fascist Norts.<\/p>\n<p>Use of chemical and biological weapons by both sides has made Nu Earth near inhospitable, and the population is forced to wear protective \u201cchemsuits\u201d to survive. Genetic Infantrymen can survive the toxic landscape without such bulky and restrictive suits thanks to their immunity to practically every toxin known to humanity, including choking, psycho, and nerve agents. Their genetic engineering also provides significantly increased stamina, allowing them to sprint without rest for sixteen hours.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to their minds being programmed onto biochips, Genetic Infantrymen are effectively immortal. If the biochip of a killed GI is returned to the Southers\u2019 scientists on Milli-Com (a huge, Death Star-like artificial planet that acts as the faction\u2019s headquarters), it can be uploaded into a new body. <\/p>\n<aside>\n<p><strong>Rogue Trooper Cheat Sheet<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>First Appearance:<\/strong> 2000 AD Prog 228 (1981)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Creators:<\/strong> Gerry Finley-Day (writer) and Dave Gibbons (artist)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Allies:<\/strong> Bagman, Gunnar, and Helm (all KIA, but live on via biochips), Venus Bluegenes<\/p>\n<p><strong>Recommended Reading:<\/strong> Essential Rogue Trooper Vol. 1: Genetic Infantryman, The War Machine, The 86ers, Rogue Trooper: Blighty Valley<\/p>\n<\/aside>\n<h2>The Quartz Zone Massacre<\/h2>\n<p>The Genetic Infantrymen were created in the hope that they would bring an end to the war\u2019s long-running stalemate. In something of a Hail Mary move, the Southers deployed its entire GI regiment in a single assault, dropshipping them all into an arctic-like region called \u201cThe Quartz Zone\u201d as part of what was intended to be a surprise attack on the Norts. However, the enemy was fully prepared for the attack, and deployed a variety of elite infantry units in order to quickly obliterate every single Genetic Infantryman. Only Rogue (and the biochips of Bagman, Gunnar, and Helm) escaped. This disaster would become known as the Quartz Zone Massacre. <\/p>\n<p>But how did the Norts know to expect the attack? Well, they were tipped off by a Souther military official who was overseeing the war on Nu Earth. His name has never been revealed, and so he\u2019s known only as The Traitor General. <\/p>\n<section data-transform=\"image-with-caption\" data-image-url=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2024\/01\/29\/rogue-trooper-explained-traitor-general-1706539781511.jpg\" data-image-title=\"The Traitor General has suffered facial scarring and has a bionic eye.

He believed it distracted from the true threat \u2013 aggressive alien species \u2013 and so he proposed that the Southers submit to the Norts and allow their enemy\u2019s strong leadership to wage a campaign against the aliens. These beliefs saw the Traitor General demoted and put in charge of the war on Nu Earth. <\/p>\n<p>In revenge for his demotion, the Traitor General informed the Norts all about the Genetic Infantrymen\u2019s planned assault on the Quartz Zone. When Rogue learned of this betrayal, he went AWOL and began a long personal mission to hunt down the Traitor General and take his revenge. This storyline formed the basis of the original Rogue Trooper comic run, which began in 1981 and concluded four years later. <\/p>\n<section data-transform=\"image-with-caption\" data-image-url=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2024\/01\/29\/rogue-trooper-explained-brass-and-bland-1706539805697.jpg\" data-image-title=\"Mr. Brass and Mr. Bland discuss their favourite hobby.

If we were to place bets, though, then we\u2019d gamble money on Mr. Brass and Mr. Bland showing up. A couple of absolute scumbags, Brass and Bland are body looters attempting to make a large fortune from stolen treasures. <\/p>\n<p>Brass is a Nort computer expert, while Bland is a Souther money man. Having abandoned their former factions, the pair work together to roam the battlefields of Nu Earth and scavenge any valuables. In their first encounter with Rogue they realise that all his unique Milli-Com GI equipment could net them a significant pay day, and so the duo become one of Rogue\u2019s regular adversaries (they need him dead, of course, in order to loot his corpse).<\/p>\n<section data-transform=\"image-with-caption\" data-image-url=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2024\/01\/29\/rogue-trooper-explained-venus-bluegenes-1706539820357.jpg\" data-image-title=\"Venus Bluegenes is a female GI who was originally assigned non-combat roles, but now thrives on the frontlines.

Despite their enhanced combat capabilities, rather than being deployed to the frontlines these women were assigned non-combat roles at Milli-Com. <\/p>\n<p>One of those female GIs is Venus Bluegenes, another prominent Rogue Trooper supporting character that we expect to appear in the film. Venus has feelings for Rogue, and arranged for additional shock protection to be installed in the capsule he\u2019d ride down to the Quartz Zone \u2013 a move that would save him from the subsequent massacre.  <\/p>\n<p>Venus would eventually make it to the frontlines of Nu Earth, both within the pages of Rogue Trooper&#8217;s comic and her own solo run. If she does appear in the film, we\u2019d expect her to once again be Rogue\u2019s love interest, but also take on the more fleshed-out character traits she developed across her solo series. <\/p>\n<p>As the first ever Rogue Trooper film, we expect Jones\u2019 script and direction to focus on the classic origin story for Rogue and his biochip buddies. The Quartz Zone Massacre and the hunt for the Traitor General are almost certain to be the main plot threads, but it remains to be seen if Jones\u2019 will stick to the chronological events of the original run, or combine story elements from many different issues of 2000 AD. We\u2019ll no doubt find out more as new details and trailers emerge as we move closer to the expected 2025 release date.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<section data-transform=\"divider\"><\/section>\n<p><em>Matt Purslow is IGN&#8217;s UK News and Features Editor. <\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/duncan-jones-rogue-trooper-explained-who-is-2000-ads-blue-super-soldier\">Go to Source (IGN.com)<\/a><\/p>\n<p>All content and images belong to their respected owners.
