so far, i'd have to say 35.6 is my favorite with 32.5 being a distant second. third being the unnecessary 21.b. i also wished for more wordage ala issues 32 AND 33. HOPEFULLY IN THE FUTURE WE CAN SEE A PALE PEONY cameo + in the rumored hard master vs snake eyes two pack like he did for adam in 32.5. anywho, i think this is a great idea and i look extremely forward to the next nine. oh, and the next four of devil's due conclusion to the comic series.

I am not impressed. However, I am not a Larry Hama/Marvel fan either. I actually think that it is virtually impossible to read the Marvel comics. To me, they are extremely juvenile and cheesy. I think the cover art is nice, but the stories are written on a 5th to 6th grade level. I am not trying to start a flame war here.....I love the file cards written by Hama......I just think the post Marvel stuff is much better. Also, would love to see a Mature version of Gi Joe. Something like Marvel did with the Punisher.

the comics are laughably bad -- the stories, dialogue and the art. I would attempt to rationalize the writing as they were simply dumbing it down to appeal to children (even though the line is predominantly aimed at collectors and Hama's significance is only relevant to us older folks who know his role in the history of Joe), but it is actually right on par with the writing of most of his regular Joe run.

I always hated the twins but yet, their comic wasn't so bad.

The scarface book i had such i hopes for but mindbenders appearence ruined it, i hate him more than i do the twins.

I just couldn't justify another 10 down the drain on the se/ss pack even for a new comic, sounds like it was a good call.

Cheesy is the key, i've decided i don't have to the books, they would be nice, bu tthey aren't really that great.

my big panic is about the nok pack, i've never seen it here!

I wish they were a bit deeper like the old issues were. A little room for subtext. It seems Hasbro is making Larry write down. I hope future issues will have more substance to them. The classic reprints did, after all.
