G.I. Joe VS Cobra The Essential Guide by Pablo Hidalgo has been released! This book retails for $25. It features extensive background information on popular G.I. Joe and Cobra characters as well as vehicles. The information is up to date, taking information primarily from the A Real American Hero comics by Marvel Comics and Devils Due Publishing. A recap of some of the Sunbow cartoon episodes is included, as well as a preview of comics from IDW Publishing.
The information on the vehicles also incorporates details of their real-world counterparts. The artwork used in this book include comic book scans, character designs by Draxhall Jump that were used for Valor VS Venom, and art used on the 25th Anniversary line. It serves not only as an introductory piece to new G.I. Joe fans, but also a very informative reference piece for dedicated fans.
Happy hunting!

It's a very informative book, the details on the real-world counterparts were something I didn't expect, so it's neat to see here. I found my copy at Barnes n Nobles.

This sounds interesting. But I'd like to see a scan of a page or two.

It's from Random House, so it should be available at most of your bigger bookstores - Barnes & Noble, Borders, for example.

Almost bought it today, but it just seemed to gloss over some pretty cool characters (Clutch, Covergirl, etc.) and have page upon page on others (SE, Scarlett, Duke)... Plus I didn't have the $25 for it on me. I'll hold off until I get one of those Barne's & Noble coupons.
