So I typically do not spring for the same day as print issues of GI Joe and wait for the month after to get them at $1.99, but I decided to spring the extra $2 for Cobra 8, which is my favorite title of the current Joe comics. I downloaded it and while the cover was the crappy incentive Cobra Commander, the data instantly turned into the original Cobra 8, the Skullbuster issue (and one I already own)! Now what the hell am I going to do? The preview at the bottom did show the images of the Skullbuster issue, but I assumed it was just an error as the cover and the description of the Civil War issue were both present. I hope that this is fixed or I need to get my money back somehow.

Does anyone have any idea how to resolve this or have had similar stories happen to them with this?

I think this is one of those times where it makes more sense to go to Comixology and ask them.

Sounds like they didn't include a volume number in the new Cobra #8 download and they need to be informed so they can fix it.

Yeah, they fixed the problem rather quickly with an update to it. If it doesnt work for you, delete and redownload.

Good stuff.

Probably was just a volume issue. The download kept thinking it was for vol. 1.

Wouldn't surprise me. I think this is the first week of Same as Print for the new GI Joe comics server so it may still be adapting to reading both the volume and the issue number.
