Only downside was is was canceled a few issues early so Hama had to skip a little of the later story to fit the ending in.


I remember Nth Man, although, again, I never had the full run and so only remember bits and pieces. Didn't know Hama penned that one too.

I think I'd really like to do that. Wouldn't mind checking out his work on other titles too.

Just to add my +1, the Marvel GI Joe storyline is canon. I was also brought up on the UK Action Force comic run, which added UK/European/Worldwide backgrounds and mini-stories to the US Marvel storyline, and I then continued with the US Marvel run (plus back-issues) courtesy of my Australian grand-ma's scouring comic shops for me :).

Definitely get and read it all, and the Special Missions are especially good :)

I hear there was also a cartoon, and something called Cobra-La, might just be a rumour though (which I've thankfully never had to confirm one way or the other ;) ).

I have them all on a zip drive if any one wants to borrow it just send me a PM.. just ask you send it back as you got it (ie all the files still on it). Just copy and paste to the computer and its all there. GI Joe 1 - 155. Special Missions 0 - 28, and European Missions 1 - 13, and also have the GI Joe vs Transformers Marvel run 1 - 4, I can try to see if enough room to put on it. If not I can send a CD with the last 4 on it. Haven't gotten the 4 issues of Order of Battle put on the comp yet. Hopefully soon.
