Excited for IDW's relaunch for their G.I. Joe Comics? Today we have more information thanks to their press release.
IDW Relaunches G.I. JOE Comic Books! Publisher Announces New Creative Team and New Era! San Diego, CA (November 16, 2012) – IDW is pleased to announce not only a new creative team on their flagship G.I. JOE comic, but also an exciting new era for the beloved heroes based on the iconic Hasbro brand! Beginning in February with G.I. JOE #1, the anti-terrorist titans will be up against a new threat: publicity! With their formerly secret identities compromised, Duke must lead his squad of Real American Heroes up against the legendarily evil COBRA in the public eye. Written by Fred Van Lente (The Comic Book History of Comics, The Incredible Hercules) with art by Steve Kurth (Ultimate Iron Man, Avengers Vs. X-Men: Consequences), the all-new G.I. JOE is an explosive turning point for those following the Joes ongoing adventures and a perfect jumping-on point for new fans to join the action. “As a longtime G.I. JOE fan it's very exciting to be able to launch the series in a bold new direction, with a new status quo that develops organically from events in the current ongoing series,” said Van Lente. “In the first arc, Homefront, the G.I. JOE team gets a new (but familiar) commanding officer, a new (and unfamiliar) public role -- and discover that Cobra has brought their war to America in a major way for the first time. We hit the ground running with all-out combat on U.S. soil,” he continued. This new spin on America’s classic fighting force is also an exciting opportunity for the book’s explosive artist, “It’s G.I. JOE with a superhero spin. This is the G.I. JOE comic I've wanted to make for 10 years and the one I've wanted to read for 20!” said Kurth. If all of that weren’t enough, fans will also be treated to eye-melting covers by Juan Doe, Steve Kurth, and Jamal Igle, and a special G.I. JOE “comics history” cover by Van Lente’s The Comic Book History of Comics co-conspirator Ryan Dunlavey! This relaunch also comes with a special treat for the G.I. JOE super fans in the form of a suitably bombastic subscription variant cover by legendary artist Arthur Adams! It’s a very exciting time to be a G.I. JOE fan, and IDW couldn’t be happier to help rid the world of the COBRA menace! G.I. JOE #1 (FC, 32 pages, $3.99) in stores 2/13/13. Diamond order code: DEC12 0412.

Newsarama has posted a 1st look at the variant covers for the IDW G.I. Joe #1 Relaunch. We have mirrored the covers here for your viewing pleasure. Cover B by Steve Kurth(Allen Martinez on inks, Joana LaFuente on colors) was shown earlier today with the IDW G.I. Joe Relaunch Press Release, so in place of that cover, we chose to show cover A. Jamal Igle drew the retailer incentive cover with Romulo Fajardo on colors.
Finally, the subscription variant cover is Arthur Adams cover featuring none other than The Baroness! Take a look at the covers after the jump.... [Read More] |

Whenever Hasbro apply for a Trademark at the United States Patent & Trademark Office, it usually means we get to see a toy really soon. While there may not have been many G. I. Joe Trademarks recently, Transformers Trademarks are proving this point.
HISSTANK finds out that USPTO has received new trademark applications from Hasbro on 8th November, 2012. Breaking a long silence… it’s G. I. Joe. First Trademark is Heavy Duty (Trademark Number: 85774331). It appears as though this may very well be a G. I. Joe: Retaliation trademark. But can’t tell at the moment. The next three however, we can clearly tell what they are for… ACTION MARINE (Trademark Number: 85774333) ACTION SAILOR (Trademark Number: 85774334) ACTION PILOT (Trademark Number: 85774335) ... No doubt it's the Hasbro 12 Inch Line. All four trademarks are classified under : "Toy action figures and accessories for use therewith" and you can take a look at the documents at USPTO by clicking on the Trademark Numbers above....

Collider interviewed Lady Jaye actress Adrianne Palicki recently and she had some rather interesting comments about Lady Jaye, like the fact that apparently Lady Jaye is a Navy SEAL in G.I. Joe Retaliation:
Colider: Did your physical training on Red Dawn help prepare you for G.I. Joe: Retaliation and give you a better sense of what to expect? PALICKI: For G.I. Joe, I had much more physical action because I’m playing a Navy SEAL. So, it’s not only about holding a gun. I had to do everything 100% correctly. We had Harry Humphries, who’s one of the best of the best. He’s a retired Navy SEAL, who’s one of the original Navy SEALs, and he trained us. I loved him, but that was a lot of work. But, I felt like I was two steps ahead of the game, having done all the work on Red Dawn. And then, I also did Wonder Woman and had hand-to-hand combat training for that. I felt like I was ready. We are going backwards but before her Navy SEAL comment, Palicki talked about how the G.I. Joe Retaliation delay killed 2 birds with 1 stone: "You’re also going through the same thing with the delay(referring to Red Dawn) for the G.I. Joe sequel. Are you just like, “Enough already!”? PALICKI: I was like, “Really?! Oh, my god!” I felt like, “Am I a bad luck charm? I don’t understand!” But again, that movie really came down to the fact that they didn’t want to be sandwiched in between two huge blockbuster movies and get trampled. I don’t think it would have, but I understand them being safe. And they also wanted to make it 3D, genuinely. So, I was like, “Okay, I get it.” There’s a reason for everything, I guess." Thoughts? Hit that discuss button and let us know!... [Read More] |

"I wanted a bigger, thicker Big Boa then my last one and I'm completely not a fan of the weirdly proportioned (almost feminine like) Night Adder sculpt, so I made another. Generally don't like mixing MU and Joe parts either, but I needed that large bare chested torso and I think it worked out okay." Click the Discuss button for all the pics & details.... [Read More] |

The G.I. Joe Collectors' Club has sent out an email stating that the G.I. Joe Figure Subscription Service figures will be shipping out before Christmas:
"Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! This is going out to everyone who subscribed to the GI Joe Collectors' Club Figure Subscription Service. If any of you have moved since you placed your subscription order it's time for you to update your new address! Please click here to log in and check your account! We are anticipating that the first two figure shipment will ship before Christmas so that means you have until December 2nd to update your address. After that date, we do not guarantee that your shipment will go the correct address. In order to get all of the orders out the door in one week, we need to start the printing and prep for all of the orders we received starting on December 3rd. Provided that our shipment from China is not delayed, we are working on getting all orders out the door before Christmas. We will hopefully start sending them out the week before Christmas. For those of you who have purchased on the installment plan, we anticipate that the second billing will take place in mid-January so we will give you updates as soon as we know the final schedule. Thanks for all of your support and we hope you have a Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday Season! Brian PS.

Thanks to eBay seller Viperskingdom who has auctions up for some of the third wave of GIJOE Retaliation single figures, including Lady Jaye, Black Dragon, Alley Viper, and Joe Colton. Plus the wave 4 Cyber-Ninja.
Notably absent are the new "Ultimate" movie figures Hasbro showed this past summer, and Cyber-Ninja was rescheduled for a wave 4 release. So it makes one wonder if these are indicative of a new production run, or if its leftovers from wave 3's aborted production last summer. Either way, it's good to see Lady Jaye, Alley Viper and Black Dragon's final accessory compliment. Joe Colton Lady Jaye Alley Viper Black Dragon Ninja Cyber Ninja... [Read More] |
