I haven’t seen this mentioned anywhere yet, so figured it was too cool to pass up.
Big thanks to reader Carlos who sends along a photograph of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s Roadblock uniform from G.I. Joe: Retaliation! Featuring some great camouflage and the familiar “Battle Kata” vest we now recognize, this is a pretty neat close up look of the uniform he’ll be wearing in parts of the film.
Check out the image below, and huge kudos to Carlos for the image!
IDW superstar Robert Atkins comes back to the show to talk about his time at Roll Out Roll Call 3, and we have a terrific conversation about the recent crackdown on 3rd Party vendors and artist’s alley at Botcon. Great to talk to someone directly impacted by those events!
We also cover the latest news and intel going on in the G.I. Joe world, and Beachhead Mike actually makes it through the entire episode without ralphing. It’s an Easter miracle! Listen to the episode at our Podbean page, or hit up the embedded player below. Show notes are after the jump.
I’m honestly not sure if there is any new footage here or not, but it’s a new ninja-centric TV spot for the film, so here it is! Check it out on YouTube or embedded below.
All right! Sure, I would much prefer some more footage these days, but I’ll take another press image as well, especially when it’s a very cool action shot of the one and only Storm Shadow!
Escape from what? That’s the question. It would certainly appear that perhaps his body was retrieved by someone and kept in some sort of stasis, allowing him to survive…but how does that jive with Cobra Commander and the word that this Commander is a totally new character than what we saw in Rise of Cobra?
Verrrry interesting. Cannot WAIT to find out all the answers June 29th! Check out the mirrored image below and a big thanks to Twitter follower toycollector962 for the information.
This post sort of ties in with some conversations I’ve had on Twitter lately, and also a very good Q & A session and discussion from our recording last night of the latest installment of What’s on Joe Mind.
Essentially the subject of the discussion is how successful can we expect G.I. Joe: Retaliation to be at the Box Office when Amazing Spider-Man is hitting theaters the following weekend? Should we realistically expect a big hit in Retaliation’s numbers? Does this mean that potential box office success for the G.I. Joe sequel is an impossibility?
You know, I’m not so sure.
