It is speculated that IDW will get the license. These are the people who are currently doing the comics for the 25A comic packs. I'm not sure how many people are lined up, but according to Phil Kost (military advisor on current Joe book), they are actively looking for a writer. The other rumor is that there will be a soft reboot.
Now, there are rumors that the comic will cater to the original 13 for awhile. *shrug*
Personally, I'd like 2 series. One that caters to the old and one that caters a new breed of GI Joe members.
The old stuff, it'd just be more of the same. You wouldn't get aging Gung Ho and whoever like what DD originally tried. I'm sure the writer could do the missing adventure of GI Joe.
New breed would include characters like Dart, Crosshair, Munitia, the Plague, Bombstrike, etc. Certainly, we NEVER got enough of the characters to get a better judgment on them, y'know? And hey, the Marvel comic definitely helped sell the toys, yes? There would be some crossover of the original team, but it'd focus more on the characters that got no love.
