I really enjoyed the Movie prequel comics for G. I. Joe: Rise of Cobra. Does anyone know the plans for G. I. Joe: Retaliation? We are getting the prequel comic right? Or is it too early to tell? Smile

Considering they always do the movie tie in comics? Yeah, I am sure they will. But the last ones were not that great. Im skipping them this time.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure we will. I didn't hate the last batch but I'm not invested enough in the movie universe to spend the cash.

You know what I'd have loved? A miniseries with Destro, The Baroness and Zartan gathering the political support, funding and technological means to pull off what we saw in Rise of Cobra because those issues of the prequel were in my opinion the best ones. It could be part heist film, part political thriller, part shooter - all fun.

I'm through with the movie tie-in comics as well. I bought the four prequel issues and Snake-Eyes #1 back in '09 and then I was done. Never read the movie adaptations, SE #2-4 or any of Operation Hiss, and I'm not going to be on board for any future movie tie-ins.

It's not that they were all bad. I enjoyed two of the five movie comics I bought. But overall I just didn't enjoy them enough to justify spending the $ to follow this continuity.

I'm sure one of those comics will be a Roadblock issue. If so, I'm sold!

Totally agreed. Roadblock is easily one of my favorite Joes. I was so disappointed when it was announced Heavy Duty would be a character in ROC instead of RB. And then insult was added to injury when Roadblock's name was replaced with Heavy Duty's in the early IDW comics.

With Roadblock getting a prominent place in the next film, along with the fact that he got his name back in the comics (with extended page time in ARAH and the main title), finally I can enjoy the character once again.
