knight_movesNot a lot of plot progression this time. Rock&Roll rejoins the cast. Assorted action scenes. Let's just get to the weird shit, huh?

Forever War: GI Joe 155

In 2010, after a couple reboots and continuations not written by Larry Hama, IDW Publishing got the GI Joe license and began publishing a continuation of "A Real American Hero" picking up exactly where Hama's last issue had left off, 155. The first issue, 155 1/2, returns to the same status quo that was left when the old comic ended in 1994: multiple heroic characters brainwashed into fighting for Cobra, while GI Joe themselves have been shut down. No one seems to have aged in the fifteen year interim, so we are decidedly in Marvel Time here, even with IDW doing the publishing honors.

May. 24th, 2024 09:33 amknight_movesCobra continues its military campaign while Star Brigade fights Russian robots. The Cobra stuff is shorter and more self-contained, so I'll largely stick to that. I don't think anyone reads this for the Oktober Guard.

Forever War: GI Joe 144
May. 21st, 2024 02:00 pmknight_movesIssue 143 is a fill-in and I'm not really in the mood for it (though it is a rare latter-day Joe story that isn't about fighting Cobra). Issue 144 is the secret origin of Snake Eyes--well, like, one-fifth of the secret origin, because dude has backstory. Dude's backstory has backstory.
