Silent Master

His name is John Jett. I met him on the IDW Boards where he was sharing some of his 'Joe art.

How's this for timing!!! He just e-mailed me a pic of the final product: I AM THRILLED!!!!

I was looking back through the thread, and don't know how I missed this. That is really awesome!!! (thumbs u (thumbs u Thanks - I am eager to see it finished!!!

Awesome! One of the best sketches I've seen on these boards, period. I voted for it! (thumbs u I agree, this sketch is absolutely AWESOME!!!!

One Joe series missing from your list is Snake-Eyes Declassified (2005 by Devils Due) It basically takes all of Larry Hama's stories about Snake-Eye's origin and puts it into one story in chronological order. It's all in the ARAH Marvel series; however, in the ARAH Marvel series it's spread out and not in order. I agree with Maloney; I enjoyed all the Declassified books: Snake-Eyes, GI Joe, Dreadnoks, Scarlett (some more than others). You should keep on reading the original series too by picking up 155.5 - current. These have been reprinted in TPB and even large hardcovers.

First print and Canadian price variant!

My latest commission in the works: It is getting inked (full color) this week, so updates to come!

Arguably, that's one of about 4: 1, 21, 155, Special #1

The issue #1? I got one getting sketched on it currently, I'll let you know if I hear any complaints.

WOW... that is all very interesting Thanks for posting!

Weird.... Thanks for getting us started! Did you ever get your #21 in 9.8???

I wish IDW would get Atkins back on the new Joe books! He's probably making better money now than they want to pay...

That is freaking cool. I did not know Atkins was going to be there or I would have had someone get me a sketch. I had A-DONIS talked into grabbing me a couple of the GI Joe #1 Con Exclusives and he messaged me back and was like "Want Atkins to do you a SS CGC on the number 1?" Ah, hell yeah! I love Atkins work! Got these quite a while ago:

I absolutely refuse to go to the ComicLink web-site anymore. If I don't know those book are for sale then I don't have buy one which I'll dislike because of that stupid stickers!! I HATE those $&?@ stickers with a passion!!!

GREAT SCOTT!!!!

Good thinking! Modern. Slow or fast track? Slow, I take it this is normal... its been awhile since I subbed any.

Good thinking! Modern.

I know they are running slow but is this normal? Especially the "received" then no status change in 4 weeks? Thought maybe there might be some issue I should call about or am I just being an inpatient nut?? (be honest! )

WOW - very nice piece!!!

Marvel only did trades up to issue 50 (Volume 1 thru 5) however IDW recently reprinted them all. Currently IDW is printing what they call the "Complete Collection" which are hardcover trades that reprint all the GI Joe: ARAH, GI Joe: Special Missions, and the Yearbooks in reading order. They are pricey but VERY NICE. http://www.amazon.com/G-I-Joe-Complete-Collection-Vol/dp/161377396X

I remember when I first picked up issue 21 I was pissed! I felt cheated that there was no words; in fact I remember thinking it must be a printing error! - I appreciate it a lot more now. Issues 26 & 27 was my favorite by far and probably solidified my love for GI Joe. I stopped reading originally around issue 65ish. It was probably more due to "teen" distractions (cars, friends, GIRLS) rather than my opinion of the stories. Of course since then I've read them all more than once and I agree that the latter books just don't have the same attraction; especially the last 60 issues are so with several exceptions of course (155 is right at the top of my favorite stories). Welcome - good to see you in the 'Joe thread; far to few of us in here!

I just requested a joining Snake-Eyes/Storm Shadow cover... He took it from there. I look forward to getting them back from CGC.

I have these 2 coming as well from Jeff Edwards: I am very excited about the GI Joe blanks we have been getting lately!

SWEET!!! You get some awesome stuff OV!!! I recently got these 2 from the last Mike Zeck opp here on the boards - they are off getting graded: (Vietnam era Snake-Eyes vs Storm Shadow/Tommy)

I'm sure it will easily fetch a couple hundred depending on the grade (maybe more). Please PM me where and when you'll be selling it!!! I have several copies and maybe 1 that might get an 8.5 to 9.0, I'd like to get me a 9.2 or higher.
