2015 Reading Challenge Book 086 G.I.Joe

TITLE-G.I.Joe
AUTHOR-Chuck Dixon
FORMAT-Trade Paperback
FIRST TIME READING-Yes
PRICE-1 cent plus shipping

I read the Joe comic from Marvel for about 3 or 4 years when I was younger. Had heard some of the Joe stuff from IDW was pretty good. Saw this for a penny plus shipping.

Set in modern day. In this trade,which collects issues 0 thru 6,GI Joe has never faced Cobra. Hell they first really hear of Cobra in the 0 issue. So instead the villain is Destro. Who thru accident has infiltrated the Pit with 5 spider drones.

The art in this trade is really good.Robert Atkins does the pencils. He has changed a few of the Joe's uniforms. But they are actually good changes. His has  a sense of motion to his art. Which works really well in a title like GI Joe.

Really my only major complaint about this trade is it's generic name. I am guessing this is the first 7 issues of IDW's first GI Joe comic. But I don't know for sure. If I can find the next trade for cheap,IE $5 or under, I will pick it up.

G.I.Joe gets a 4.82 outta 5.
