YoJoe Comic mastermind antarctica sends along an update, reporting that he’s totally revised the YoJoe comic section, focusing on continuity and “flow” from one series to another. Using official Hasbro terminology, he laid out the entire page with renewed organization.
As great as the YoJoe Comics Archive has been, this makes it even better. It truly is a fantastic resource and antarctica deserves a ton of praise for the hard work he’s put in keeping it up to date, especially as IDW continues to flood the market with new books.
Great stuff! Check it out for yourself right here.
As an addendum to this, he’s also added summaries to the section for G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero #155.5 as well as the Hearts and Minds Ashcan promo, G.I. Joe #17, G.I. Joe: Cobra #4, and G.I. Joe: Origins #15. Check out links to all of those IDW summaries right here.

G.I. Joe: Cobra II #4 hits shops tomorrow, promising to reveal the IDW Cobra Commander for the first time…and we’ve got a 5-page preview.
With it’s distinctive “film noir” style, it looks like G.I. Joe: Cobra is dipping into the action flick realm this month, but as usual, it’s being handled very well. I am really looking forward to this one.
G.I. Joe: Cobra II #4
The plans of Cobra, Chuckles, and the agents following him all collide. Can anyone survive? Will the Joes get what they want from Chuckles… by any means necessary? And brace yourself for a last page that will impact the entire line of G.I. Joe books!

Today is the official release day for G.I. Joe: Cobra II, Issue #3 (which becomes an ongoing series with Issue #5!), but already some sites are out there reviewing the latest installment, and early word on the street is damn good as expected. Check out the reviews below, and once I get my hands on it (hopefully today or tomorrow) I’ll post some of my own thoughts as well.
Be warned, these reviews most likely contain spoilers!

It’s that time of month again, and IDW gives us their full solicitations for June of 2010. It looks like 2010 is going to be a big year for G.I. Joe in the comics world, even without a movie or a full run of action figures to keep hope alive. It did take me a while, but I’m finally becoming at least somewhat invested in the IDW universe. G.I. Joe #15 was a great read, G.I. Joe: Cobra has been fantastic (and is now an ongoing series!), and G.I. Joe: Origins has really been picking up steam as well.
June looks like it’s going to give us Zartan’s introduction to IDW in G.I. Joe: Origins, as well as a new take on Serpentor in G.I. Joe: Cobra. Really looking forward to it, and IDW is doing a great job filling the holes in what could have been a tame year, G.I. Joe wise. Click on the “Read the rest of this entry” link below for the full details, and thanks to The Terror Drome for the announcement.

Tomorrow is new comics day, but even better, tomorrow is new G.I. Joe: COBRA comics day! Yay!
Easily my favorite G.I. Joe themed comic in the last 13 years, Costa and Gage continue to hammer it out of the park with their unique film noir style, excellent dialog, and no holds barred action. But anyone who knows me knows that I love seeing some obscure characters get attention, and they are doing that as well! Issue #1 already gave us Croc Master…Issue #2 brings Chameleon on board (though, I did it first… :shifty: ) and we’ve been promised Crystal Ball and even Serpentor. Normally this would make me cringe, but I have the utmost faith in these guys, they’ve only done awesome things so far. Below you’ll find a 5-page preview of this latest issue of G.I. Joe: Cobra II, and I know I’ll be practically waiting at the comic store for it to arrive.
