This thread is to be used by HISSTANK.com members to discuss the IDW G.I.JOE #2 Issue. We ask that only those who have actually read the book to comment in this thread. We will be doing a special thread for each issue for members who read comics.
The G.I. Joe team battles Cobra to the death on American soil! COVERL GIRL, DOC, and the newest member, HASHTAG (yes, HASHTAG) have been separated from the rest and have to fight their way through hundreds of kill-crazy COBRA sympathizers—with a teammate’s life hanging in the balance! Plus: The BARONESS has DUKE in her clutches. So why isn’t DESTRO happy about that?

Didn't Croc Master die in one of the Cobra volumes? Fantastic...more continuity errors.
I will say this though...this art is a step in the right direction. All of those characters are recognizable and look like their corresponding toys. |

Croc Master did not die, we never saw the body. That question was answered (vaguely) on the IDW forums.

Hashtag being ROTC is just a horrible idea and I liked most of the book.

No he did not. A lot of people think he did (and you know getting shot in the chest is a good way to die :-) ), but IDW said he did not. He got a really minor brief part in a Cobra Commander special after he supposedly "died" and IDW came out and said he wasn't dead. This (I think) would be his first full blown appearance since he got shot in the chest, though.

OK, well THIS has definitely got me pumped. I was never a fan of IDW's main Joe titles, but now they may have finally gotten the right writer and artists to do the brand justice.

Van lente seems a cool guy though. Why, if the artist form the cover (Jamal Igle i think) is such a good friend, didn't called him? I think i understand where he's heading with the plot. But the design of the characters and the artwork is not good at all. Hashtag... well, i guess she'll be the Jubilee now... annoying but i assume he's got plans for it. Not the greatest idea, imho. Still, the Q&A is an interesting reading. *the ones resembling Arah. That's why they're -supposedly- correct.

[QUOTE=Rainbow Viper;4184749] Didn't Croc Master die in one of the Cobra volumes? Fantastic...more continuity errors. [QUOTE]
Really, there's no chance that someone else might be able to put on that uniform and call himself/herself “Croc Master” ... I mean, come on, they proved it in issue #1 when Doc's daughter takes over his place on the team and his codename. When people want to pick things apart, they seem to have one focus and begin to find the silliest little things to nit-pick about. Rainbow Viper, I mean no disrespect to you personally, it's just this "I’m not going to give it a chance" blanket statement and feeling that is out there and it is only being fuelled by remarks like that about the continuity errors.

I'm very hopeful for this series, the interview makes it sound like it will get better from here.
I'm not a continuity hound, and I have no idea of the IDW history, but I know my Marvel comics say that both Doc and Quick Kick are dead. That doesn't bother me too much as I see this as a new alternate storyline that kind of mixes the comic and the cartoon, but it was my first thought upon reading.
