The original Infestation series surprised me with how much I enjoyed it, especially considering the somewhat supernatural twist to the story. Based on what I’m seeing so far with this preview, I think I may end up feeling the same way here. How can you not love the Cobra Insane Asylum being nicknamed “Cobra La” and featuring characters like Gristle, Raptor, and Cesspool? I mean come ON.
So far looking pretty fun and pretty “out there”. Can’t wait to check it out on Wednesday, but for now, here’s the 5 Page Preview below.

Infestation 2: G.I. Joe #1 (of 2)
Mike Raicht (w) • Valentine De Landro (a) De Landro, Livio Ramondelli (c)
Cobra has always had a penchant for dark experiments. This time they’ve gone too far and opened a portal to a realm of violence and madness. As squadron after squadron of Cobra Vipers falls under the thrall of the Elder Gods there seems no way to stop the hideous transformations that are taking place. The only hope lies in a group of already-insane Cobra agents… and a Joe named Snake Eyes!

Not very often do these previews make me WANT to pick up the book, but this one really seems interesting and I’m looking forward to it. Thanks
Looks like they released Alan Moore from the shadowy depths as well!
Personally, I like the idea of Cesspool being one of the saner Cobra operatives and maybe a rival to Tomax. Ah well.
