Saw this post over at The Terror Drome, which announced that IDW will be holding a panel at the New York ComicCon tomorrow, so stay tuned for any news and intel that comes out of that!
Don’t forget that G.I. Joe #2 hits stands on Wednesday, February 11th as well, and expect to see a review on GeneralsJoes shortly after release:
G.I. Joe #2

A team of JOES in Manila is hot on the trail of an international arms dealer, but find themselves opposed by… Snake Eyes? Back in The Pit, a new enemy reaches from across the world to strike at the home base of the JOES. This is their first encounter with Destro… and maybe their last. Featuring a special Adam Hughes “Baroness” variant cover!
*2 regular covers will be shipped in a 1-to-1 ratio.

FC • 32 pages • $3.99
Also, G.I. Joe Origins #1 should be hitting this month as well.
Expect a heavy dose of Marvel 3 3/4″ pics and reviews in the next couple of days, too. Gotta love the weeks leading up to Toy Fair! 🙂

I plan on talking about the movie toys quite a bit more in the coming days, but I figured I should at least talk about them a bit since the pictures debuted today as we reported they would. By now most folks have seen the actual pics scattered across the internet and everyone is chiming in with their two cents. I’m sure everyone is just dying to know my thoughts… :shifty:

So, I’m feeling wishy washy. Look, I know this is a G.I. Joe site, and I know most of the viewers really only care about that. But I’ll be damned if I’m not getting sucked into these awesome 3 3/4″ Marvel Universe figures. They’re the perfect marraige between the comic characters I love, the scale I’m a huge fan of, and the articulation I need.
What do you guys think? You want to see more coverage of the Marvel stuff (though only the 3 3/4″!) here? Here are a few galleries to get you going:

Fred from JoeBattleLines and I were just talking about this…and man, if this doesn’t have some serious potential. Imagine COBRA agents discovering Captain America frozen in ice, then teaming up with Hydra to unthaw him and turn him into their ultimate weapon? Imagine SHIELD discovering the existence of COBRA and Hydra’s union, and deciding a specialized task force needed to be created to battle against them…a task force called G.I. Joe?
Imagine the infamous “Merc with a mouth” battling toe-to-toe against the most famous and skilled Arashikage ninja in the world… Nick Fury and General Hawk standing back-to-back fighting off scientifically advanced terrorists. The possibilities are almost endless. I’m getting a bit pumped up.
Toy Fair in one week!
