Product Description:
It starts here! G.I. Joe explodes out of the gate in their very first adventure! Destro, the twisted-yet-honorable arms dealer from Scotland is planning something big - a new weapon called the Mass Device that can - and will - change the face of warfare forever! Meanwhile, G.I. Joe is under attack in their own secret base of operations! But who could have found - much less attack - them! Where has Snake Eyes gone and what is his mysterious connection to G.I. Joe member Scarlett? And under the shadows, whispers of a terrible and powerful organization grow louder. Whispers that say one word over and over... "COBRA."

very good start to another G. I. Joe reimagining. Solid character focus and very good art. The only complaint I have - like many others - is that so far the series is much slower than any of its predecessors, but since this is the very beginning, I'd overlook it. Hopefully it'll pick up with later volumes.

I understand some of the complaints that the story developed too slowly but they crammed enough entertaining action in along the way that they made it worthwhile. I'm a big fan of Dixon's writing back from the early Punisher work he did and he appears to still be at the top of his game. I also really enjoyed the way they utilized Snake-eyes by really building up the mystery around his actions. Too bad the filmmakers didn't use this for their script.

This July 2009 full-color trade paperback collects the first six and a half issues (#0 to #6) of the 2009 IDW relaunch of the Marvel Comics classic 1980's "GI Joe: A Real American Hero" series. The original comic book series ran for over 200 issues with Marvel and other publishers: this series retains the same familiar characters but none of the continuity. Chuck Dixon is the writer and Robert Atkins is the artist. The main story arc seems like an updated version of Larry Hama's "The Trojan Gambit" ... Read More

Like lots of you reading this, I wanted this to be great. I bought ever issue the day they hit the stands, and read them eagerly as soon as I got home. I'm a fan of Chuck Dixon and I LOVE GI Joe, but I can't sign off on this one. IDW may have hindered Dixon's use of the Joe Universe, since Hama was working on the "Origins" title and the far better G.I. JOE: COBRA (G. I. Joe (Graphic Novels)) book was in the works. Maybe for that reason he wasn't allowed to use some of the more familiar and likable Cobra ... Read More
