Thanks to ComicNewsInternational for the heads up, here’s a list of upcoming IDW G.I. Joe books due for release in May, 2010. Some cool new additions including Hearts and Minds #1, featuring Major Bludd and Spirit. As if that wasn’t enough Major Bludd action, the new Operation: HISS book features him heavily as well.

The MTV Movies Blog had a chance to sit down and talk with the writers behind Zombieland, Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, and made sure to grill them somewhat about the progress on the G.I. Joe sequel. The two writers confirmed that they are working on the film, and that it will not be a reboot. But they also specified that they will try and make it closer to the source material while still making it a big, fun movie.
In the interview they say that they are traveling to Hasbro headquarters to start working out ideas for new characters (though they would not say who). Check out the interview for yourself, embedded below:
