G.I. Joe Classified Series

I'll check it out, thanks. And I was going to say, some neat designs could be a net positive from the line. My first thought was, "Joes better be Sigma-Six-levels of geared-up to deal with Transformers" which sounds amazing. Or a Snake Eyes that's like MGR Raiden/Cyborg Ninja that can slice through a robot in a single swing. I would be acceptive to such things. 💸💸💸
 
Well, those of you who are super familiar with the comics, which ones would be good for the transformer phobic to dip a toe in?

Oh, it was the cobra la people I'm thinking of, that seemed more energon than animated
 
If you want an interesting crossover, there was a Joe vs Transformers from IDW from 2014-2016. It's in it's own continuity, but shares a lot familiarity with the original Marvel runs of both series. The first few issues I thought where just weird and crap, and looked up the artist so I could rage against him. I couldn't understand why people where lauding this guy so much. Then I read an article with him about the crossover and it made 100000% sense.

So back in the day, Jake Kirby got picked to do the comic adaptation of the movie 2001. They gave him a different draft of the script to work with then the film script so he pretty much did his own thing in a gloriously bonkers way that only Kirby could get away with.

So these guys that did the crossover pretty much said "What if in the early 80's there was a film of GI Joe vs Transformers that we got picked to do the comic of, but didn't watch the movie and have no idea who any of the characters are besides a few pictures of the toys." It is so alien and strange and bonkers and it's great.

Looked it up. That was the Tom Scioli book! That dude is a trip and a half. I have his latest graphic novel in my to read pile. He did a killer Go-Bots run after that where the Go-Bots end up evolving into the Transformers.

You can just do the Joe books if you want. They are very accessible. But they're all handled so well.
 
Holy hell, Walmart actually shipped Ghost Viper. Gonna be here tomorrow. 100% expected this to be a dead on arrival preorder.
