You don’t see a whole lot of G.I. Joe themed Kickstarter campaigns out there, but now all of a sudden we’ve got two excellent looking G.I. Joe books with campaigns running simultaneously.
Folks who have been reading GeneralsJoes know that I always throw some support behind the offerings of 3DJoes. Carson does great work on his website, and always puts out a quality product. You can check out the Kickstarter for The Art of G.I. Joe (Volume 2) here.
Along with this, Dan K. is also working to fund a great looking G.I. Joe book filled with fantastic early concept art for figures and vehicles. Lots of never before seen details and looks at some concepts that may have never reached full production. It’s a very unique and intriguing look at some of the concepts behind A Real American Hero and deserves a place on your shelf!
You can check out the Kickstarter for 3.75 Joe right here.
Pretty exciting stuff for a fanbase who is out there excited about all things G.I. Joe!
