So most of the focus on HubWorld.com has been G.I. Joe: Renegades and Transformers: Prime… however what some folks don’t know is that HubWorld also ported over a lot of the videos from Hasbro’s MonkeyBarTV site, which means full online versions of many of the Sunbow cartoons as well as some of the CGI features from 2003 – 2005 (including the fun Valor Vs. Venom). This is a very cool added feature and something that Joefans of all genres can appreciate.
Check out their video episodes section right here.

Talk about polar opposites. Released alongside the deep and understated G.I. Joe: Hearts and Minds #158, this continuation of the classic series from the 90’s makes no assumptions, and continues right along bringing the fight and Larry Hama makes no apologies for that.
The G.I. Joe team continues to be on the run, while Cobra is the government entity leading the charge against them. Remarkably similar to the G.I. Joe: Renegades animated series plotline (though this comic run certainly doesn’t get the A-Team criticism that the cartoon is getting…interesting, that) and has at least as many bullets flying as dialog, unlike the other issue released this same day.
For spoiler reasons, the rest of the review will be posted after the jump.

Ohhh, good stuff. Like last month, issue #157 seems to have the mojo back again, and I am in LOVE with that Rod Whigham cover. Total throwback to the 80’s. Awesome. Issue #157 comes out on Wednesday, check out the 5-page preview below.
