I got to attend NYCC and attend the G.I.Joe Panel.
I will load pictures later when I get home.
Here are some Notes in random order:
1. It's a team effort between G.I.Joe, G.I.Joe: Cobra, & G.I.Joe: Origins comics to reinvent the line. Larry is excited since he loves the characters, but is enjoying putting them a in situation to start. They made it clear (except for Dial-Tone) they intend to keep the core of the characters the same.
2. Female Dial-Tone was suppose to be a new character until Hasbro suggested the team had to many experts in that field. The art was done so the names her Dial-Tone.
3. G.I.Joe: Origins ends where G.I.Joe & G.I.Joe: Cobra begin.
4. They are going to be doing Spotline one ups on certain characters. So far we are getting Beach Head, Helix (New character they couldn't discuss), and looking into the Baroness (Who is getting alot of love. They willl be using this as they do with Transformers to filling plots of the main line. Characters are based on telling a story worth telling. Many character stories were proposed by the staff, but many are characters we arn't going to see yet.
5. Larry's favorite is Snakes-Eyes. He said can write a whole story without words and get paid full price. He just submitted layouts for a Spotline Story for him.
6. We are getting four movie based comics leading up to the movie.
7. Ray Parker is co-writing a Snake-Eyes story based on the movie.
8. Serpentor hasn't been discussed. If they do use him he most likely be reimaged since as Larry stated "you need to suspend alot of disbelief."
9. G.I.Joe: Cobra is based on Chuckles and the team has alot of love for him. They stated to keep an eye on all the characters since you will be surprised on who turns up.
10. They are putting out children's book/comic based on Combat Heros.
11. I asked about other groups besides Cobra and was told to read Origins.
I'll post the pictures later.
