review:

'Rogue Trooper:Last Man Standing' is based on an older 2000AD character. He's actually a pretty cool character and I'd like to read more about him.



Stuck on a lifeless planet with a talking gun, helmet and backpack, he is a relentless and unstoppable soldier. When he rescues a soldier on the battlefield, he chooses to save him. When troops are deployed to destroy him, he has to make other choices. The talking equipment provides some comic relief which is needed since Rogue is so stoic.



Art by Alberto Ponticelli is pretty great. I love Rogue's blue skin and the starkness of the planet. Sometimes the dialogue was a bit hard to read from the talking equipment, but that could have been because it was a review copy. I liked this standalone story.



I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Diamond Book Distributors, IDW Publishing and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
