[QUOTE=nacho;251444]My favorite issues are the 40's and 50's (give me Zeck covers and Rod Whigham pencils any day), but the cobra civil war was quite good. I agree that it went down hill after that in general, but the war in trucial abysmia was a bright spot prior to the ninja-induced downfall of the title.
Regardless, I had the entire marvel and DDP run (basically the entire Hamaverse) bound into custom hardcovers (I'm still waiting on the final volume of AE to come back from the bindery). Yo Joe! Did u take the original comics and bid them?how much does it cost u to do that? |

About $500-$600 to bind the Marvel and DDP runs. See the discussion on the previous page for more details.

Around the time that Storm Shadow joined the Joes and every issue was Ninjas was very tiresome. And BF 2000 & Eco-Warriors were so dumb words fail me.
I just went to a comic show not too long ago and got many of the later issues I never read. Some were good, some just so bad it was painful. I still laugh when I read the words "Ninja Force". Good God... |

Personally I didn't like much after the Cobra civil war. Too many Dreadnoks came to the fore.
Things picked up a bit when Cobra Commander came back and I loved the run with Andy Wildman's art, but then we got Ninja's, then Transformers and it was *pffffffffttt*!

After the Civil War, things started to wind down. Issues 100+ were pretty much just promoting the toys.
The art too were poor in the late issues. Never did like Bagley's rubber mouths. Wished it was Ron Wagner all the way, the best artist on Marvel's GIJoe run |

Another thing I hate about the last 60 or so issues is the lack of Iron grenadiers! I mean they were this awesome army that could rival cobra and then like nothing they were never really seen again. They were one of the only later sub sects that I ever cared for.

The 30-50 issues are my favs. Hail Zeck! After around 60 I stopped reading every month, it just seemed to lose something for me. The early issues are great fun.
