Fobbit is the modern military term for the guys who stay "in the rear, with the gear."

Yeah, but I think they used it to describe Brainstorm and the other tech-heads.

However, there are dangers that people like those listed face that the typical grunt doesn't. This is shown when the fobbits have to help deal with Destro's "bugs", and most of Mainframe's early arc. People with access to highly classified information face threats from within and outside the "secure" areas. I could tell you a few stories from my time in Kuwait, when all the 11B's, Marines, and Tankers were out taking pot shots across the border at what was left of the Republican Guard that would make your toes curl. There's a reason why our team shared a warehouse with the SF team. For many fobbits, "peacetime" is anything but.

Yeah, I was very pleased with this issue.
I love the methods Cobra will go to, in order to keep their existence a secret.

Me too. It's crazy how behind the eightball the Joes are. Each time they think they've got a handle on what they're dealing with they find out Cobra is still one step ahead, and out of their league. I knew this was going to be ALOT more trouble then they thought. I just didn't realize THIS much trouble. Talk about covering your tracks, wow. Good times.

I loved the lake of tech-gel.
Also love how Cobra doesn't go and build this big bunker or anything like that for their money laundering bank, no they just use an old fishing shack. Sunbow or ARAH Cobra would have had a big ol' bunker. IDW Cobra is more sneaky and stealthy.

Yup, the new Cobra is really on their game. I'm loving it.

Interesting issue. I'm hoping this will be the start of things picking up in the main title. I liked how they used Keel Haul in this one. And I think "Fobbit" is the more modern (and polite) term for REMF.
