 This state of affairs did not continue for long, however, and the old version was killed off.Ironically, the new version declined in popularity and the strip was discontinued, only to be replaced with the original version, in stories set before the original's death.There have been a number of less complicated "Rogue Trooper" spinoffs largely following the adventures of the other G.I.s, like Venus Bluegenes, Rafaelle Blue and Tor Cyan.
