If IDW reboots it and resurrects dead Joes, I'm done with it. That's what made it 'real' for me, these are combat soldiers, albiet highly trained ones, there are bound to be casualties. Let the dead Joes, and Cobra's RIP, and carry on with who's left. If they resurrect them, this comic is no better than the superhero comics that keep resurrecting dead heroes over and over again (half the reason I don't read the majority of Marvel and DC titles anymore). Regardless of whether or not you liked the DDP continuity (I for one thought the majority of it was good, though it did have it's bad moments) it carried on where Marvel left off, the Joes were older, wiser, some fatter (Bazooka), and believe it or not Larry Hama (have you checked out the 25th comic packs?) was not always writing great Joe stories, and the Marvel comics were not always that good (Hello! The majority of the Ninja storylines). IDW would be wise to continue, cause if they reboot, like they did with Transformers (which stinks) I can say they will lose one Joe fan.
