I'm going to read it, but even back when I was the target age for this book, I would have felt condecended to. Who the hell wants to have a bunch of ordinary kids watering down thier GIJoe?

Unless one of them is named Billy . . .

Now there are some possibilities.

I feel like Billy would have to be the star of his own YA novel, like the son of CC being hunted for the secrets he might have.

Hmmm. I'm not too interested in the kids in the book but it sounds interesting enough to make me want to give it a try. My brain will refuse to imagine the Joes in anything but their classic gear but that's the fun of novels.

I’ll stick with the comics, I’ve never read a whole book in my life sadly, got through 5 pages of a Rambo novel once lol for a school assignment, wish I could get through a book though, really do!

It sounds like a full blown treatment of the old PSAs - kids find trouble, then Joes jump out from behind the bushes and offer advice.
Not to be critical, but wouldn't the actual adventures of gi joe make for a better and more exciting story? Just a thought...

When I was a kid I hated whenever a book would force kids into a scenario where you want it to be all about Batman or Spiderman etc.

Actually, if there will be enough illustration from Phil Noto, I'll get a copy for the art alone.
