Somewhat overdue, Comic Book Resources has posted a recap of the IDW and Hasbro SDCC Panel, though honestly not much new G.I. Joe related information was revealed. Below you can find the text of the recap, which was pulled from CBR directly.
“Schmidt nicknamed September’s “G.I.Joe Origins”#19 “Silent Crescendo” as it features a silent Snake-Eyes story by Larry Hama and Joe Benitez. Hama noted that he actually choreographed the fight sequences for the layouts with weapons from his own collection. IDW will also release a recolored reprint of the classic G.I.Joe story “Silent Interlude” with a new cover by Ashley Wood as a retailer incentive.
“G.I.Joe Origins” #20 in October by David Lapham and Werther Dell’Edera will feature “Sedition By Numbers,” a story that introduces a new character and “a horrifying insight into the Cobra organization.”
In the last week of September, IDW will publish “G.I.Joe Cobra Special” by Mike Costa and Antonio Fuso that will feature fan favorite character Erika Le Tene in “The Trial Of Erika Le Tene.” The story will pick up where the events in IDW’s “G.I.Joe: Cobra” left off while “G.I.Joe: Cobra” Issues #10 through #13 by Christos Gage, Mike Costa and Antonio Fuso finishes the Cobra Commander & Chuckles trilogy. The subsequent storyline of the series will feature the origin of the Croc-Master.
Schmidt joked that the storyline in issue #23 through #27 of the ongoing “G.I.Joe” series by Chuck Dixon and Robert Atkins would be entitled “Critical Mass…or Mass Destruction” and noted that the storyline not only concluded “Season One” of “G.I.Joe” but also introduced Storm Shadow to current Joe continuity.”
So, as I said, not a whole lot of new information, but some information, just the same. Check out the original article over on Comic Book Resources for cover images and other little tidbits.
I’ve been woefully lax in updating folks as to when the great guys at the G.I. Joe: Review Podcast post their updates, but I’m going to fix that right now. Christopher, Matt, and Chad had a chance to sit down and talk with IDW Editor Andy Schmidt about the G.I. Joe comic book universe, and all of the details about the podcast are below. Thanks as always to the guys there for putting out a terrific show and for keeping me in the loop!

And wow is it an impressive reveal!
Canadian JoeCon is coming, and the hits keep on rolling! Check out the latest figure right here on JoeCanuck.com…absolutely incredible looking figure. Incredible! I’m amazed that a combination of such relatively common (and unheralded) parts can generate such impressive results.
Very, very nice.

Keep in mind that I really don’t like desert figures. I never really have. Yet, for some reason, the figure that I was most drawn to with those unreleased Target sets was Sandstorm…for some reason I just thought he was awesome. Whether it was the story with Zartan, or the desert camouflage and reactive armor combination…I’m not sure why, but that figure really drew me in.
And now, The Pursuit of Cobra keeps up the trend. Dusty, coming in Wave 2, is one of the cooler Joe figures I’ve seen in recent memory. Night Fox as well, who is slated to come with the upcoming AWE Striker, is another fantastic looking desert themed figure. Combine that with the HISS v.5 I already have, and suddenly I have a veritable desert arsenal, and they’re all cool!
Gyre-Viper from HissTank.com, of course, doesn’t help much when he keeps posting great pictures…I love some of the gear swaps he shows off in this thread, and I’ve mirrored just a few of the awesome images below.
