Because of the name G.I. JOE, I always assumed that this comics are all about war. When IDW got the license Danny from my local comics shop asked me if I'll start reading it, naturally my answer was no. I have enough war in the real world and don't want it in my comics. Boy was I wrong !!!
I found this book in the bargain bin and decided to give it a try because from glancing inside it looked like there was more to G.I. JOE then just war actions. I was right. G.I. JOE is about Cobra - a megalomaniac used cars salesman who decided to take over the world because he was forced to pay taxes and obey the law. Against him stand the G.I. JOE unit - a group of people who were ready to give up their identities and military careers in order to fight Cobra so their children will not have to salute the Cobra insignia.
I enjoyed the read. The art is good till you get to the male characters. It's a but hard to see who is who in the male part of the G.I. JOE unit because they all look the same. I'm looking forward to get my hands on more G.I. JOE books.
