OK...I have to say it...that Baroness/Destro cover for #8 is basically one foot-placement away from being clothed porn. It looks really awkward and more than a little bit dirty. Especially given the expression on Destro's face.
None of this is necessarily a bad thing, mind, it's just distracting. Anyway, good to see IDW plans to carry on the grand tradition of killing off tons of people. |

I have a love hate relationship with these titles. I'm such a Joe junkie I can't give up on them, but they just don't ever seem to be living up to their potential.

Agreed. Say what you will about DDP, at least the people writing for them were passionate about G.I. Joe. Chuck Dixon has admitted he knew nothing about the property when he got the job. He's a great writer but he doesn't know the characters at all or what makes G.I. Joe so awesome. I'm not the slightest bit surprised neither he nor Costa have seen Retaliation. At least Van Lente is a fan but now he's leaving.
The only person writing a Joe comic these day who has a clue, (well after Fred is done), is Larry Hama.
