So far I haven’t been willing to give this the shot it probably deserves. I’m not real big on the “camp” nature of Batman or the Golden Age of super hero comics, I much prefer my world gritty and serious…does that make me a bad comic fan? 😉
Just in case anyone was curious…I know I supplied my own review for this first issue of G.I. Joe, but in case folks want other opinions, here are some reviews that you may not have seen scattered around the web:
I know there are tons of others out there, but these were some of the more obscure ones that I thought people might not know about. So far getting pretty decent reviews…

Battlestar Galactica captured my attention when it first started and hasn’t really let go since. I faltered a bit during Season 3, but this lead up to Season 4 has re-ignited my love of this series, and I’m getting antsy waiting for 10:00pm tonight!
This article from AintitCoolNews.com helped. So did this clip from SciFiWire:
Rock on.
Long time Joefan “Smokescreen” has fired up a new player in the website/forum game, One-18TH.com. He is attempting to tackle the entire 1:18 scale from Star Wars to Captain Power, G.I. Joe, and the upcoming Fury Files Marvel toys. The forum is already pretty active, and the interface is cool as well. Give it a whirl, lots of Joefans there already!
G.I. Joe (Chuck Dixon & Robert Atkins)
G.I. Joe Origins (Larry Hama, Tom Feister & Mike Hawthorne)
G.I. Joe Movie Prequel (Chuck Dixon, S L Gallant)
Found this gem on SuperheroHype. As if I didn’t want to see this DVD enough already!
Deadpool rocks my world. Lots of blood, lots of action, and Deadpool at his best…can’t go wrong.
“Omega Red is a bed wetter” made me laugh out loud here at work. :shifty:
I know a lot of folks know that there’s a lot of G.I. Joe info in the latest Toy Fair, but being as Resolute is where my main love affair is these days, I figured I’d post something collecting as much of that info as possible. This is all gleaned from a few different articles and interviews in the magazine. If you like the information here, support ToyFare by buying it! 😉
Most of the other information in the article is stuff we know already, but it’s always cool to see some added information from Hasbro. There are quite a few words about the movie, and it sounds like this film is going to be full of serious “over the top” action, which can be good or bad. Time will tell, I’ll wait for some footage before making a judgement on that.
So what sparked this post? These video clips from Hulk Vs. Wolverine:
TRAILER
CLIP ONE
DEADPOOL FEATURETTE
Now keep in mind, I’m not even a Hulk fan…not in the least. But I’ll be damned if that doesn’t look pretty kick ass.
