I can’t think of a better way to prepare for JoeCon (except maybe delving into some of the soon to be gone Joe tales on Kindle World) than indulging in some fans’ fondest memories about this great toy line. Go pick one up today.
Thanks for posting. I was not aware of this book and just ordered one. Good reading material for my flight to Joe Con!
Thanks!

Wow! There are some illustrious authors on that list.
What is this book all about?
It's a compilation of essays in which the authors talk about their love of G.I. Joe and how the brand impacted their lives. It is heartwarming, genuine, and is rumored to bring those who buy it uncanny luck, legendary virility, and vast wealth.
Then i'd like to buy two copies please.

C'mon, Joe peeps! We know you have opinions - give us a review, wouldja?
