RogueTrooper04_cvr-copyDid anyone else notice no new Rogue Trooper in the June Previews from IDW, only the classic reprint series?

I'm told that the new originated series from IDW by Brian Ruckley and Alberto Ponticelli, based on the 2000AD sci-fi soldier created by Gerry Finley-Day to Dave Gibbons, has been put on hold due to disappointing sales.

But the publisher did run significant overprints on those first issues which keep on selling, it seems, especially in the UK.

2000AD is bringing back Rogue Trooper later this summer as well, with Dregs Of War by Guy Adams and Darren Douglas. Which might be just the impetus IDW need to be able to keep their series going as well…
