The Joe team
goes Covert Ops as Chuckles, Lt. Falcon, and Law& Order are introduced into
GI Joe canon. It seems these guys have been a part of the team, only Hawk and
the rest of Joes don’t know about it.
Adding to the
drama and suspense, more Dreadnoks are introduced and they’ve got the low-down
on the super-secret goings on of this unknown team of Joes. It all comes
together for an epic clash in which the Joes actually want the Dreadnoks to win
for once and the thugs don’t know it.
I love espionage
comics, like Nick Fury and Captain America. This issue of Joe was not a
disappointment. Spy stories always are a little confusing and I have to reread
them, but that’s because there is always subterfuge. That kind of bewilderment
is okay in my book, as it’s meant to be there. It’s like a mystery novel with
hot cars, cool toys, and Bond girls.
I liked how
Larry Hama introduced Chuckles and his unit a lot better than how those guys
were introduced in GI Joe: The Movie, having these guys as Covert
Ops squad that’s operating outside of Hawk and the Joes knowledge than as a
bunch of goof-off recruits. And I don’t have to hear Don Johnson’s whiny voice every
time Lt. Falcon speaks.
Oh, and the
ending is one of the most bad assed endings of a comic book, ever!
Worth consuming.
Rating: 10 out
of 10 stars.
