G.I. Joe #1 Re-Release Shares Unedited Dialogue for the First Time

In celebration of Skybound Entertainment acquiring the G.I. Joe license, the publisher will be re-releasing the first issue of the classic ’80s series. This time, however, that historic issue will be published with Larry Hama’s original, unedited dialogue for the very first time. Skybound surprised the comics world earlier this summer when it announced that it had acquired the Hasbro properties Transformers and G.I. Joe, which will be relaunched in an all-new shared continuity dubbed the Energon Universe. In addition, Skybound will also be picking up the baton from previous publisher IDW for Larry Hama’s G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero continuation of the classic Marvel series, which ended on a cliffhanger with the 300th issue last year.
