I loved the comics, it brought GI Joe to life. Admittedly they start out slow, a little cheesy but they quickly get better. When re-reading the series I usually stop around #120, it really goes down hill after that.

Special Missions was awesome. It seemed to fit more in the real world more than the regular series.


Ya, I see what you mean. I guess Hama didn't have the pressure of pushing the latest toys with Special Missions, so he was more free to do more real-world style stories.
