No shit. Sherlock. I've read the complete novels and stories of Sherlock Holmes by Conan Doyle this could be fun. Hoping for the red -headed league.

I hope Sherlock gets her own unique Joe uniform during the course of this story, because if she just uses a literal Military Police uniform like on the cover, then that is rather boring.

Part of me is all "oh yes, I like the premise" and part of me is "multi issue story arc, I know were this ends up...."

At first I thought, welp, the Joes get in trouble again for going off the reservation and combat-assaulting a small town....but, this does sound a little more original. I’ll remain cautiously optimistic.

So the last 3 new characters have been female. Helix I like. Fake Female Snake Eyes I don't. Her and Fake Eyes are redundant. So a black female Joe? Is that the demographic that reads GI Joe? If the character is good that is one thing. The art doesn't look very good. Hopefully the story arcs remain short. I like the one shots better.

Or any Joe with a “realistic” military uniform. 🤔 Quote:

The original 13 Joes were inspired by real US uniforms, but there are deliberate creative liberties there. For example, the Joes wear what kind of look like turtle neck sweaters as opposed to button down shirts with pockets. The 13 Joes also have helmets that look very different from what the US Military was wearing. Guys like Grand Slam and Flash had those weird armour pads. And let's not forget about what for the time were futuristic looking weapons and gadgets included with some of the Joes. There are plenty of other differences if you google images of US uniforms from that time period and compare. There was a clear and deliberate effort here to make the Joes look like the "military of the future." However, if you google images of a modern MP uniform, this is quite literally a note-for-note carbon copy. It's quite lazy IMO.
