This was probably my favourite incarnation of Rogue ever - something about it just really clicked with me.
I'll be gutted if Brian doesn't get to do new Rogue stories one way or another.

I'm late to the party I know but I really liked this imagining of rogue. I'm glad it was a reboot rather than a tired old attempt to continue a long dead story. The script was really tight, funny, and showed nice character touches. I love the prog, but I often wonder if the strips wouldn't benefit from the longer american format...

I personally never read a prog on its own, I've always 20 at once to get through, so it's kinda the same as reading the longer format comics.

My opinion is not to be trusted: I think Last Action Hero is AWESOME. And What Women Want.

The collected edition is out now and in the back there are a load of covers and the pencils of some of them, plus a bit of written stuff!

Well, not that it matters now but I just caught up with #2, #3 and #4 this weekend and loved it. Naturally, that means nobody else bought it and it got cancelled. Such a shame. Beautifully written, perfectly executed. A perfect update, I think. Wasn't crazy about the artwork at times but the writing plugged any gaps for me.

Got the trade through my local- Dave's Comics, Brighton.

Very much enjoyed it.

If I had a gripe its that is wasnt long enough ! it left me wanting more, which is a good thing.

My trade arrived today. If you haven't bought it yet, please do. This really does deserve to continue.

Just been catching up on my comics backlog and I read the final issue the other day.

Good little series. Best thing about it was the art IMO. I like the looseness of the inking and the colouring complemented it well.

Must say I found the ending a little bit flat.

Shame that it got cancelled.

Reading the collected IDW and also the 4th telephone book recently, I think the GRennie droid comes off bestest, he added the important 'war is hell' bit and a love of Nu-earth tech and names that seems lacking from the IDW version.
