It’s the vaguest of notions right now, especially since the arc is a few months away, but over on his fan-focused Facebook Page, Larry Hama made a startling admission today…
I think it’s a safe bet that the story arc in GI JOE ARAH that is comprised of issues #212, 213 and 214 will be fairly collectible.
Keep in mind that Larry Hama never really goes out of his way to promote his work, and has fully admitted to not having much sketched out continuity-wise. Issue #208 just hit shelves, so this is a few months out, but this should be interesting to keep an eye on to say the least. According to IDW Solicitations there is a big character return around that time, so…
Continue to watch Larry Hama’s Fan Page and see if any more news drops!

I was hoping to get this published last week, but time was not on my side. But better late than never.
Hama and Gallant once again dive into the classic Real American Hero world, yet manage to bring some new things to the table. Are they all good? I’m not 100% convinced, but I’m willing to buckle up and take the ride.

It is with shock and sadness that I report the sudden passing of comic artist Jeremy Dale who apparently passed away in his sleep a few short nights ago from an undisclosed illness. Jeremy performed the art chores of many interiors for G.I. Joe comics that were packaged with the 25th Anniversary Comic Packs. He relished his place in the G.I. Joe hierarchy and was extremely active in the convention circuit. He always took time to talk to all of the fans that came his way and legitimately appeared to love being a part of G.I. Joe comic history.
The family asks that you leave condolences over on the Jeremy Dale Facebook page and keep watching there for any updates.
Everyone here at GeneralsJoes wishes the Dale family and friends our deepest, most sincere condolences.
