While G.I. Joe fans everywhere are getting geared up for the big G.I. Joe relaunch in 2013, not much thought has been paid to how the current storyline is wrapping up. Over at Newsarama, we get a little sneak peek into G.I. Joe #21, which will wrap up the current Target: Snake Eyes story and tie off this latest “season” of G.I. Joe before the exciting new chapter takes over with a new issue #1.
In this preview we see a recently retired Hawk trying to escape his dangerous life in a cabin in Idaho, but Cobra has other plans…

I can’t quite properly express the joy I have when the newest issue of G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero by IDW is released… and that day is right around the corner! Any issue that features old school Falcon, Leatherneck, and Spirit on the cover has got to be a good one. Check out the preview for the latest issue below.

After a small Christmas hiatus, IDW is hitting G.I. Joe full steam ahead with two exciting new issues hitting comic stores on Wednesday! Even with the New Years Day holiday coming at us, we’ve got previews up for these two issues, Danger Girl/G.I. Joe #5 and Cobra #20. Just from the previews these two issues look like such polar opposites within the scope of the G.I. Joe framework, but they both look like a whole lot of fun.
Check out the preview pages below.

And in the true Spirit of Christmas, join us while we talk about female body parts for a couple of hours…
In all seriousness, this was a homecoming of sorts as we all got back together to do a real live episode for the first time in well over a month, and we had a ton of news to cover! If that’s not all, the rest of the crew (alongside YoJoe guru Terry Dizard) spoke with Bill Ratner, the voice of Flint in the Sunbow animated series.
Make sure you don’t miss me and Chuck throwing down about Michael Bay and the Transformers franchise… it’s one for the ages!

So did you think 2012 was a slow year for G.I. Joe? While the fine folks behind the What’s on Joe Mind Podcast did drop down their recording schedule a bit to accommodate a slow trickle of Joe news, there were still many exciting G.I. Joe events to talk about.
From animated voice actors to movie news and toy reports, What’s on Joe Mind covered the gamut of G.I. Joe news and events for the year.
Even with a much slower recording schedule in the back half of 2012, it was tough to pick out 12 isolated episodes, but with Gary and Mike’s help, somehow I made due.
