rnrhero I'm Really Cool. Offline --> Posts: 1,162 --> Join Date: Apr 2005	I have only picked up a couple of issues of the new book, but it seems pretty good. I agree that Dialtone is just wrong but if I keep reading will probably get used to that. I wish my fellow toy buddies collected Joe so that I could build dios with them. One only collects 1/6th WWII and the other just He-Man. I have been helping the later design a huge Snake mountain that he could have in his living room thaat I might use for a few pics as a cobra mountain. The design is about 4 ft tall right now.

Also, the plot seems to be running around in circles. Of course, that's just the "main" title. Origin is pretty cool with that Chimera guy and Snake-Eyes being badass without being superninja. Cobra, I didn't like at all. Formulatic, and a complete bastardization of Jinx for the sole purpose of killing her. __________________ RIP Minouche, 1994-2009.

Have found the classic Marvel at the big bookstores, being reprinted in group form. Will buy those first. __________________ ~~~{==========- Death at Midnight -==========}~~~

Good thinking!

And if you find the Storm Shadow solo series TPB, give it a try. It's not really GIJoe but it's a great adventure comic!

yeah, i like origins better myself, so far. i picked up a few of the movie prequels and 2 of the cobra ones, but havent read them yet, i might do that now since i have free time.
