Any IDW G.I Joe fans on the Forum?

Post by leonmallett »

Just wondering. :hm:

I have been on-board with this line since the re-launch and got behind with my G.I. Joe reading recently. In the past few days I read-through around 15 issues across 3 volume 1 titles and some of the volume 2 reluanches, and doing so reminded me how much I really enjoy reading these books that don't have a superhero in sight.

Any other fans of the IDW G.I. Joe books around here?

Ive bought a few of the issues, but still havent read any as I'm one ones who was upset about them completely omitting the DDverse. I was even more anoyed when they started ARAH with #156....

I really enjoyed them too and thought they were MUCH better than the DD books. But I am SO far behind in reading that it's almost intimidating...

You want intimiadating? I have around 30 issues of the recent JonahHex run to read still....

I was never exactly a big GI Joe fan as a kid; we had Action Force which was a distant analogue and a Euro-centric iteration after that. Missed the DDP stuff, but I saw with IDW a chance to try some non-superhero books and I was hooked. Loved the first runs of GI Joe: Cobra especially.

I'd almost consider Snake Eyes a super-hero...
