CODENAME G.I. JOE STARTS HERE. Conrad Hauser has made first contact with an alien being and lived to tell the tale. But no one, not even Colonel Hawk, believes the story of the jet fighter converting into a colossal alien robot that nearly killed the man known as Duke. Now, one of the US Army's most decorated soldiers is on the hunt for answers, drawn into a conflict that no amount of training could ever prepare him for. A war that only a real American hero has any chance of surviving? Superstar writer JOSHUA WILLIAMSON (Superman, Batman) and artist TOM REILLY (The Thing, Ant-Man) kick off the first of four action-packed miniseries that will introduce the best and worst humanity has to offer in the Energon Universe.

I'm surprised they didn't use Snake-Eyes.

Given the total absence of Megatron in the Transformers book's advertising so far, I'm guessing Skybound is intentionally keeping some of the big-name characters out of the Energon Universe for a while so there can be more excitement when they finally show up.

On the subject of ARAH, the cover to #302 is making me think Wade Collins is the one who dies, since the four people carrying the body are Wade's son and the other three survivors from the LRRP.

Dumb question coming from someone who hasn't paid attention to comic books in years and doesn't have a local comic shop convenient to me. Is there a way to subscribe by mail for physical copies anymore? It seems like all subscriptions are digital these days, with print copies going directly to comic shops.

I get my comics shipped to me every month from Casablanca Comics in Portland,ME ( I live roughly an hour and a half away). I'd call around and see if any of the comic stores somewhat in your area will do the same.

Good call on Wade, going back to 299-300.

OK, so publishers don't do subscription by mail themselves anymore?

This just shows how out of touch I am with comics, but back in the day I subscribed to the Marvel G.I. Joe comic and had them mail it to me every month.

They've largely been phased out. Marvel and DC technically still have subscription services, but they're run by the big mail-order comic shop Midtown Comics. Image shut down its in-house subscription service in 2019.
