I am glad to see the series get continued. 20 years is a long time to wait.


Yeah, I'd love to see Senior back helping on the project, too. I loved his blocky art. Maybe IDW can shoot for a hybrid "best of" kinda retro style.


One never knows ... perhaps he'll lend his pencils to a story or three. I've got my fingers crossed!

Awesome news!

IDW's G1 Ongoing series really turned me off. The pace was too slow & the humans turned out to be bigger bad asses than the TFs.

I didn't mind the look, though. I'd rather take that rather than the dot pattern of the original Marvel series, which screamed CHEAP.

I agree w/ gothsaurus - I hope Furman doesn't ignore the G2 stuff.

Yeah, I'm hoping they keep a consistent style — and even the design elements on the cover, fonts, etc. (The Botcon G2 throwback did a great job of this with the cover... giving nods to the old style and coloring.)

I DON'T want them to go back to bad printing techniques of the dark ages... dots or crappy paper, either one.

I hope they at least include GB Blackrock who can mention the Neo Knights or something to that effect.

Meh, I'm a comics nut but Ratchet was dead at the end of the original run and most of my other favourites disappeared from the series long before that. This is still cool though. A Real American Hero is the best G.I. Joe comic IDW is publishing right now.
