What does D-Day mean for Duke Nukem?

The saga of Duke Nukem was supposed to be at least on indefinite hold following the layoffs of the entire Duke Nukem Forever team last spring at developer 3D Realms. But is the cigar-chomping and well armed hero making some kind of comeback? The Dukester's allegedly "official" Facebook page has posted up an image that looks like a screenshot from an upcoming game.

The picture is labeled "D-Day preview pic" and was posted on Friday with no other explanation. A couple of days beforehand, "Duke" himself wrote on his Facebook page that he "doesn't stay down for long". So what does all of this really mean? Is this a new game? Is this a game that simply uses the Duke Nukem Forever assets but doesn't use the Duke Nukem trademark? Color us confused.
