I always hate it when someone says they are going to deal with human issues. It bugs me, I don't want to read about GI Joe member having issues. It's nice to have small things pop up to show they are human. But GI Joe to me seems to be about things that are bigger than just one person. I don't want a soap opera...

What writer wants to get stuck doing mindless action? It would become boring after a short while. Last edited by seyms; 04-24-2010 at 03:53 PM.. |

Read World War Z. Max Brooks is truly genius at both understanding how to tell a story, even one that is kind of ludicrous, and making it both feel real and meaningful. His style in this book was first person narrative, so I would expect sort of an interview/inner-dialog story. WWZ was quite action packed - even from this perspective - so don't fear.

"we deal with issues like racism, we deal with science versus religion, we deal with medical ethics, medical malpractice, we deal with unemployment and the moral destruction of unemployment"
Well, my enthusiasm has just tapered off somewhat. In the same vein as World War Z, it looks like Brooks just can't help injecting his left-wing nonsense into everything. |

I'm pretty stoked for this. I think the fact that it'll be stand alone stories dealing with the specific characters in each issue is a great format for this type of story. I don't think I'd want this level of character depth in the core book, as I don't think it would work well with the extremely large cast Joe has. If this goes well I think it'd be nice to have him come back maybe a few books a year when he finds a story he wants to tell. The fact that we're getting an upclose and personal look at Firefly and Major Bludd is just too cool.
