iPad early adopters now have official rationalization for purchasing this very cool new product (as if you didn’t already).
IDW, always on top of the digital comics world, continues that trend by bringing two of their most popular licenses, G.I. Joe and Transformers, to the Apple iPad. Check out the full press release here, or click the “Read the rest of this entry” link below.

I know I haven’t been posting many reviews lately for the IDW titles, even though I’ve been enjoying them much more than I had recently. I figured I should change that for G.I. Joe #18. Written by Chuck Dixon with art by SL Gallant, the main G.I. Joe title started off quite slowly, and has taken a while to build…but it has been building.

YoJoe Comic mastermind antarctica sends along an update, reporting that he’s totally revised the YoJoe comic section, focusing on continuity and “flow” from one series to another. Using official Hasbro terminology, he laid out the entire page with renewed organization.
As great as the YoJoe Comics Archive has been, this makes it even better. It truly is a fantastic resource and antarctica deserves a ton of praise for the hard work he’s put in keeping it up to date, especially as IDW continues to flood the market with new books.
Great stuff! Check it out for yourself right here.
As an addendum to this, he’s also added summaries to the section for G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero #155.5 as well as the Hearts and Minds Ashcan promo, G.I. Joe #17, G.I. Joe: Cobra #4, and G.I. Joe: Origins #15. Check out links to all of those IDW summaries right here.
Tomorrow is wednesday, which means today we’ve got a five page preview of the upcoming fourth issue of G.I. Joe: Operation HISS. Written to take place after the events in G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, it injects a bit more seriousness into the source material than its animated counterpart.
Speaking of the animated counterpart, we were supposed to get a new episode last Friday…wonder what happened.
Anyway, the five page preview is below.
G.I. Joe: Operation Hiss #4
Brian Reed (w) • Agustin Padilla (a) • Joe Corroney, Padilla (c)
With G.I. Joe captured and held prisoner, Major Bludd puts his master plan into action… and makes sure that the Joes take the fall!
*2 regular covers will be shipped in a 1-to-1 ratio.

G.I. Joe: Cobra II #4 hits shops tomorrow, promising to reveal the IDW Cobra Commander for the first time…and we’ve got a 5-page preview.
With it’s distinctive “film noir” style, it looks like G.I. Joe: Cobra is dipping into the action flick realm this month, but as usual, it’s being handled very well. I am really looking forward to this one.
G.I. Joe: Cobra II #4
The plans of Cobra, Chuckles, and the agents following him all collide. Can anyone survive? Will the Joes get what they want from Chuckles… by any means necessary? And brace yourself for a last page that will impact the entire line of G.I. Joe books!
