Vice Press have just released a brand new, officially licensed 2000AD screen print; Rogue Trooper by Florian Bertmer, a huge fan of the comic who has brought Nu-Earth to life through insanely detailed art.

Florian Bertmer is a German-born artist living in Los Angeles, who has a flair for the macabre and a profound knowledge of the occult. His unique and insanely detailed style draws inspiration from traditional pen and ink illustrators such as Alphonse Mucha, Geoff Darrow, Pushead, Mike Mignola and Ed Roth.

He started his career creating record covers and music merchandise for a wide variety of legendary bands such as Napalm Death, Converge, Dillinger Escape Plan, The Misfits, Mastodon and Agoraphobic Nosebleed, just to name a few.

Florian recently made his way into the realm of movie posters, creating poster art for such iconic films such as Holy Mountain, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Swamp Thing and Planet of the Apes.
