Anyone else excited about the new GI Joe series from IDW?

73 posts in this topic

I hate IDW and all the miniseries they have. I love Joe, but they are going to have 5 or more titles some months. That is just absurd. Then you add in the 50 million variant covers they have and I really, really, really , really hate that they got the license. I can take variants, but I can't take them every month on every book. It is stupid and makes me mad as a Joe completist. I hope they lose the license sooner than later.

Anyone reading GI JOE: COBRA? I wonder if #2 is worth hunting down (no more at my LCS).

 

I was pretty disappointed with #1. I think I'll get enough of my JOE thirst quenched with just the regular series. Especially with the $3.99 price, ugg!

I agree completely! An occasional varient is kinda cool - esp. if it's rare but two and three cover on EVERY D@MN ISSUE! Come on people... focus on the story and art and quit trying to soak every cent from comic fans, it just pushes people away from comics. I too am very disappointed that they do this and I hope they come to their senses soon!

I kind of thought this would be pretty obvious of IDW's tactics once they launched all 3 series at $3.99 cover price. meh
