I've been very supportive of Chuck Dixon's G.I.Joe run, but Special Mission's first story arc has been garbage. I really hope it improves by the next arc.

ARAH is firing on all cylinders. I hope that continues!

Not even on Sunbow or Dic's worst day, did they have a Joe beat up a great white with their bare hands.

Does anyone else think that the IDW stuff not written by Hama seems to be overdosing on contrived girl power nonsense?
Seems like every second cover is a girl in a sexy pose and then inside are tons of contrived plot points to brow beat the reader into thinking "wow these girls are just as strong as the men!" Just as a disclaimer I have no problem with strong women in Joe stories (many were central to Hama's run and it was great) but the ones in IDW are so cheaply contrived to go out of their way to make a point about it that it's insulting to the reader. Maybe that's what's selling books for them but for me contrived writing of any kind doesn't resonate and they lost me a while ago. I've been sticking to the ARAH title by Hama. |

I am really enjoying Hama's book. Ever since the end of the blue ninja stuff it's gotten better and better.
Now were back to that semi-subversive feel of the 80s where we had decent, honorable soldiers trying to deal with reality while taking orders from politicians from the safety of their offices back home. I love it.
