G.I. Joe vol. 5

G.I. Joe

"Crown Jewel of the Hasbro Universe"? That's weird, the words "Optimus Prime" don't seem to be anywhere on the cover.

G.I. Joe is a comic book published by IDW Publishing, published from December 2016 to October 2017. It is the fifth G.I. Joe series from the company, debuting after nearly a two-year hiatus since the fourth volume, and the first Joe series released after the continuity's integration into the Hasbro Universe, which retroactively established that the entire IDW Joe output had occurred in the same universe as their Transformers books.

Puzzled as to why there's an article for this G.I. Joe comic here on TFWiki? Because believe it or not, Skywarp is now a member of the Joe team! However, this is still a Transformers wiki, not a Joe one, so this doesn't mean our other articles will contain full write-ups of the action in this title. For fully-detailed histories of the G.I. Joe characters and concepts appearing in this series in IDW continuity history, check out our sister wiki, the IDW Hasbro Wiki.

G.I. Joe ended with issue #9 in October, 2017, and lead into the First Strike crossover event. A G.I. Joe: First Strike one-shot was released in September, and following the wrap up of First Strike, new series Scarlett's Strike Force debuted in December, which integrated Joe with M.A.S.K.

Overview

Following the events of Revolution, G.I. Joe evolves into an international fighting force no longer controlled by the American government. Their shadow war with Cobra is in the past; now, numerous alien arrivals have made the world a whole lot weirder, and it's up to the Joes to confront the various fantastical threats it now faces.

Creative team

The series is written by Aubrey Sitterson, with art by Giannis Milonogiannis and colors by Lovern Kindzierski.
