    It's only been 18 years, but who's counting?

    The Comanche franchise is back from the dead. A new trailer for Comanche was shown off this evening at Gamescom 2019 from developer NUKKLEAR. The first entry in this franchise dates back to 1992 with the release of Comanche: Maximum Overkill for the PC. The most recent game was 2001's Comanche 4. Yeah, it's not much of a stretch to say that this franchise is very much back from the dead when the last release was over 18 years ago.
