Trigun Stampede Poster Welcomes Home a Familiar Face

Trigun has been out of the spotlight for a beat, but it won't be long before the gunslinging series makes a comeback. If you have not heard, the series creator is working with Studio Orange to bring Trigun Stampede to life, and the reboot will bring Vash the Stampede to a new generation. And thanks to a new poster, we have been given a first look at the reboot's take on a very familiar face.As you can see below, the anime's latest concept art focuses on an arid scene as a massive city looms in the distance. A figure is shown in the foreground with a wrapped cross on its back. And for fans, well - they will know that luggage means this figure is none other than Nicholas D. Wolfwood. ?????????(9)??????????????????????????????????????????????...#TRIGUN #????? pic.twitter.com/UUddEpCyFJ-- ?TRIGUN STAMPEDE??????

After all, the Punisher Cross contains a machine gun and rocket launcher along with a slew of handguns. Given the character's marksmanship, you can see why Nicholas would gravitate to a weapon like this, and it seems Trigun Stampede will invoke this imagery just the same.
