Well, the site is new, but the guy behind it has been around for a long while. David Thornton was the brains behind Quick Kick’s Theatre, one of the classic Joe sites from a bygone era, focusing attention on the Sunbow animated series. He migrated to JoeGuide.com, but then took a little break from the online Joe community for a bit to focus on other ventures.
Well, Mr. Thornton has jumped back into the Joe community with a splash, launching a fantastic site at CartoonPaperwork.com!
As part of this new series launch, we get an awesome glimpse at a storyboard for an unused opening for the second season of the Sunbow animated series! A fantastic glimpse into the production process. Check that out right here.
Very cool, and a site worth bookmarking. Check back often.

Over the past week we’ve received some conflicting information about upcoming releases from G.I. Joe: The Pursuit of Cobra, but it would appear that things have somewhat ironed out. Several online retailers including Big Bad Toy Store, Entertainment Earth, and Small Joes have received information from Hasbro that seems to finally confirm what waves 3 and 4 for 2011 will consist of. This is how it shakes out:
2011 Wave 3 (AKA “Wave 5”)
- Blowtorch
- Cobra – The Enemy
- Cobra Commander
- General Hawk
- Jungle B.A.T.
- Steel Brigade
2011 Wave 4 (AKA “Wave 6”)
- Snake Eyes Temple Guardian
- Crazy Legs
- Croc Master
- Rock Viper
- Viper
- Iron Grenadier
To pre-order, make sure to visit Small Joes, Big Bad Toy Store (wave 3 and wave 4), or Entertainment Earth (wave “5” and wave “6”). Now, just to get some pictures! Keep your eyes peeled to GeneralsJoes.com next weekend as I visit New York City and attend the 2011 Toy Fair!

Over the past couple of weeks, much of the attention of the internet world has been on G.I. Joe: Cobra (and rightfully so). It seems somewhat strange to have G.I. Joe’s flagship title somewhat lost in the shuffle, especially when it promises to end with a pretty large bang.
Snake Eyes and Helix find themselves in Station 0, neck deep in Cobra. How can they fight their way out? Read the full review after the jump.
