Anyone here thinks the IDW G. I. Joe comics seem too convoluted?

The Dixon reboot series was solid, and lead to some great stuff like the Cobra series, but sadly sales did no persist, lot of fans seem to have hated it cause they want with a too realistic approach, calling it 24 and not GI Joe, lot of cloak and dagger spy games type of stuff. Loved it but there was lot of negativity, which had them make wild changes in tone where suddenly the comics started to have characters wearing their ARAH outfits randomly, and vehicles out in the open. Depending on artist, the look of it all kept changing where it would be gritty and series for a few issues then the next it looked like Larry Hama ARAH from the 80s. Those first few years were great but yea it became a mess of soft reboots every couple story arcs it felt like. |

The Dixon/Costa-verse is a nightmare to reread, if you're trying to do so in chronological order.
I'd have released one solid book, with Costa writing and Atkins drawing. |

I've only read the Hama stuff and I think the whole plot with the Revanche Cyber-Ninja, is the worst thing he's done with the IP. Other than that, I've loved his run since the very beginning of the Marvel series.
