Finally got my Dragonsky (and Big Bear) today. I've been dying to recreate the iconic last page of GI Joe Yearbook #2. I was so disappointed to not get Dragonsky in the con set at NOLA, but now that day has finally come!

Awesome! That's perfect, I need to do the same thing... actually, recreating joe covers in toy form would make an excellent project....

Love it. The Michael Golden artwork in that yearbook is still probably my most favorite comic artwork ever.

I've been collecting the G.I. Joe Collection books from IDW (I actually posed my OG on top of one!). I wondering if they have re-done Yearbook #2 yet. I haven't picked up the third volume yet and I know the fourth is on deck. I love how Bellomo made minor corrections (Doc) and put these in chronological order.
Yearbook #2 would look awesome on some nice crisp white pages with the vibrant color of these collections.

Great picture
+1, and even better would be setting up a way for people to submit their photos for any given cover so that they can be seen alongside and compared with the original and with each other (i.e. all pictures of Yearbook #2 cover that have been submitted, etc.). |

Sounds like a great competition the Hisstank could host...

Great shot. My only complaint with Dragonsky is that he's not big enough. Dragonsky was always shown as a big guy, Horrorshow sized.

Yeah, he looms large in the background of the photo. They should have used Repeaters body from the Night Force set from last year.
