I think that I might hate the artwork...
seaneley says
I almost feel like we're back to normal with this one. Reserving judgment until I read it tomorrow.
Jmacq1 says
Looks like the set-up to an issue-long homage to "Shakedown" which was one of my favorite issues of the original comic series.
Tanksmasher says
Negative, Ghostrider.
DESTRO says
This should help you guys out. This is the best issue from the last two years.

I've never liked this running gag over Ghostrider's name. These people are supposed to be the best of the best, but apparently his contribution is so minimal and the other Joes care so little for him that they can't even bother to remember his code name. If the legalese people prohibit the writers from using his name in the comics, just drop the character or give him a new name, because the running gag where nobody can remember it makes the Joes look like bunch of assholes.

Why does the Strato-viper look dead-on identical to Sneak Peek?
mamunestor says
It was a copyright thing when GI Joe was published by Marvel. Marvel said they can't use the name. Now it's just cause Hama wants to keep the joke going. The artists have put his code name on his aircraft in the recent past. That's as close as we're gonna get.
solosam says
I know why it happened. But that's also irrelevant.
It was a stupid idea then, it's stupid now, and they should have either corrected the problem or dropped the joke.
