JoeDios.com Forums - View Single Post - The Comic Box #57 AND 'Special Missions' #8!!!

Issue #57 was good, and introduced MARS, which of course leads into the Iron Grenadiers, which can only be good. The Joes working alongside Destro made for a nice angle as well. But the real gem was SM #8. This is still one of my favourite issues ever, and one I have re-read many times. It's a great example of a one-shot story - the part where the Joes are waiting for the convoy to show up just bursts with tension. With great story telling and artwork, it was issues like this that made Special Missions so awesome.
