G.I. Joe #3 showcases everything that makes this series work so well, acting as a very powerful, core pillar to the Energon Universe. Read Full Review
Its nice to see shades of darkness around the edges of something that I had only ever really had a chance to be. Kind of bright and silly when it was first debuted its nice to see that theres some willingness to be a bit more dark as the series moves forward into the newly-created Energon Universe. Theoretically, there would be more that could be explored with the franchise. The simple good versus evil framework is cozy and familiar, but its not anything with that ends up feeling terribly compelling after the last page of any issue. These franchises can explore quite a bit more than very simple concepts if theyre given the chance. Read Full Review
G.I. JOE #3 is a fast-paced, entertaining issue that relies heavily on espionage and intrigue to stop Cobra Commander from building a "super weapon. Joshua Williamson's script is well-paced and focused, improving significantly from issue #1's bumpy start. Sadly, the art is rough enough to be off-putting. Read Full Review
Another great issue. Unlike the other G.I. Joe title, this one makes me care about the characters. In this case, I’m really worried about my favorite, Clutch. I hope he makes it out of the enemy’s lair.
The only issue I’m having with this series is the coloring. While I generally like a reduced moody color palette, it does look a bit lazy and uninspired in some places.
Anyway, the perfect comic book art doesn’t exist (well, maybe in Geiger…), and I’m really loving this series so far!
