Sorry, Skinny, but Shipwreck definitely drinks. LOL!
And I could kick myself for not recognizing Destro's vehicle as a Razorback. I wrote a review for it and simply called it an 8-wheeled ATV or something like that. Also: regarding Colton as Ironblood, I really don't care as much as I would if this was the RAH universe. I'm still not fully invested in IDW's new continuity (especially with the mass of dead JOEs who have barely made an appearance; that always irks me), but they have had some cool ideas. I'm completely comfortable with - and enjoy - the mish-mash of toy properties, since this has never been done before. Seriously, this is new territory. We should all be loving it, especially since we still have RAH in a more grounded "reality." Last edited by seaneley; 08-11-2017 at 01:00 PM.. |

Why does Scarlett always look like a man with long red hair now in the interior art?

I think she looks like a chipmunk.

One cool thing: the majority of the comic was about G.I. JOE.
Still trying to figure out how Joe Colton came back from being "replaced" by a Dire Wraith. The #0 issue had something about General Blitz pulling bits of "Dire Wraith matter" out of Joe's stump but I still don't know where he had been all this time. |

Based on dialogue, First Strike #0 took place before Revolution. If I had to guess, Colton was about to get Wraithed, cut off his hand to escape, and ran to Kreiger while the Wraith absorbed Colton's DNA and took his place. The real Colton has been running around as Baron Ironblood since.

So, anyway, First Strike #2 is out. If anybody has read First Strike #0, they know that Colton was betrayed by someone he thought was a "close companion" but turned out to be a Dire Wraith, and it cost him his right hand. Gen. Blitz created him a new one.
In a way, the scenario makes sense: Colton does not want to see the Earth subjugated by aliens and he cannot trust anyone in a position of authority, so he turns to his old friends (most of who are villains now). Naturally, Scarlett has her orders and the G.I. JOE team must stop their founder. Heck, go for it, I say. On that note, does anyone else think that the mysterious guy riding with Gen. Mayhem and Gen. Blitz might be... Wraith??? |

I like so far both GIjoe and FS, issue #2 was good and a lot of Joe spotlight, also, the Mask Annual had some joes there too, like Tunnel Rat, Stalker and Sci-Fi, always good to see this, characters popping up in other titles. Of all the runs on IDW of Joe, besides the stellar Cobra series this seems to be the best, i just hope when they relaunch the Joe title will be with a more appropiate artist, not that it was bad, but i prefer something differente or more appropiate for a military sci fi book.

NEW THEORY! Colton may have been Ironblood, but he's not in the Ironblood suit. Someone else, some decoy is in the suit right now. My evidence? The covers for issue 3!
First there's this one (http://news.tfw2005.com/wp-content/u...ons-3-4-07.jpg), which clearly depicts Colton in the tactical gear. Then there's this one (http://news.tfw2005.com/wp-content/u...ons-3-4-02.jpg), which shows Scarlett pulling the Ironblood helmet off of some random guy. Now I know what you're thinking. "Daniel, that's clearly just a silly gag cover." BUT IS IT? These may be gag covers, but so far every one has depicted a scene from the actual book, in some way. My theory is that he's kept in the dark to keep it from being obvious that he is Colton! The real question now is... who is in the Ironblood suit? |
