With DC and Marvel relaunching a couple of titles, the fandom for comics had a reason to build some excitement. Today, via IDW, another favorite will be relaunching its title. G.I. Joe's relaunch is described as:
The anti-terrorist titans will be up against a new threat: publicity! With their formerly secret identities compromised, Duke must lead his squad of Real American Heroes up against the legendarily evil COBRA in the public eye.
It is written by Fred Van Lente who did The Incredible Hercules with art by Steve Kurth who had a couple of shots at Ultimate Iron Man, Avengers and Uncanny: X-Men.
“As a longtime G.I. JOE fan it's very exciting to be able to launch the series in a bold new direction," said Writer Van Lente "With a new status quo that develops organically from events in the current ongoing series. In the first arc, Homefront, the G.I. JOE team gets a new (but familiar) commanding officer, a new (and unfamiliar) public role -- and discover that Cobra has brought their war to America in a major way for the first time. We hit the ground running with all-out combat on U.S. soil."
Meanwhile, the screen adaptation G.I. Joe: Retaliation has recently relaunched campaign for the movie due to its pushed release. The new trailer landed online a few weeks ago. Movie is now due on theaters March 29, 2013.
The G.I. Joe relaunch will reach stands February 13, 2013. The cover art is bel--oh my God! Where the hell is Snake Eyes?!
