Cobra Command has come and gone, and the ramifications are still being felt. By the looks of this next issue of Cobra, I think we’re in for a very cool retrospective issue. I love how Chuckles has become such an immortal character in the IDW universe. They’ve done such a great job with him.

Loikamania is a mostly comic-based podcast, which occasionally drifts over into wrestling talk, but comic professionals make regular appearances throughout podcast episodes. Special attention from G.I. Joe fans should be paid to Episode 81, which was actually released a couple of weeks ago.
In Episode 81, Pat Loika brings in Christos Gage and Mike Costa and does a blow-by-blow “writer’s commentary” of G.I. Joe: Cobra Volume 1. The two writers of the series talk about the evolution of the best G.I. Joe book on shelves today and offer some great behind the scenes intel and conversation about the book.
Very cool stuff. Check out Episode 81 of Loikamania right here!

Another week, another installment in the Cobra Command multi-part adventure. IDW continues to use the same art team along with their regular compliment of writers to carry the story along and maintain a great sense of unity even as it hops from title to title. The results so far have been excellent, in my opinion.
What I really love about how the Cobra title is treating this story is that they are staying very much in continuity and sticking with the format, but you can definitely smell the Cobra vibe as you read the pages. This issue is no different.
