How much longer do you think it'll be before the arrival of his siblings and the Dreadnoks? I wonder how they'll be handled. This is the deal breaker for me whether or not to buy the books.

The Dreadnoks are confirmed to appear in the second story arc of the upcoming G.I. Joe: Special Missions series, but no word yet on whether Zarana or Zandar will be among them. Actually, no word on whether any of the established Dreadnoks will be among them; they could be all new characters.

Sons of anarchy? I'm not familiar with them.

Chuck doesn't seem too keen on answering whether Zarana and Zandar will be in the book... If they are, I hope he writes them both, and not just Zarana.

Yay!

Not bad. Glad they won't be buffoons! The Dreadnoks have needed that kind of characterization since the beginning.

Zarana being included can be expected more than likely, but I hope she's not without Zandar. I hope Chuck doesn't write off that they're twins, or have a problem with Zandar's fine-features and fashion sense. Zandar looks a lot like Zarana, and vice versa. I wouldn't mind a dark-and-dangerous new look for Zandar which would be more believable than day-glo neon, but not a look that's a total departure from Zarana. A darker version of Zarana would be great too, as long as, again, her similarities to Zandar aren't overlooked.

Here's hoping, fellas.

Given Dixon's tendency for creating new characters/names for the IDW Joe-verse, it's very possible that none of the established Dreadnok characters will be in the story, though.

I can't see all of them being replaced... one or two new ones, but not all of them. At least I hope not.

He and the artist made Buzzer, Torch and Ripper look pretty good a several issues ago when Zartan survived the crash in Australia.
