Nothing has gotten the fans in an uproar more with G.I. Joe: Retaliation than the idea that Snake Eyes and Roadblock may possibly be Arashikage ninja brothers. While I’m sure there’s much more to the story than that, it’s obvious that the two are somehow linked, and it would appear that the third issue of the G.I. Joe: Retaliation movie prequel is going to touch on that connection.
IGN.com has posted a preview of the comic, which comes out on Wednesday. You can see it right here.

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!
