It occurred to me recently that I used to own a GI Joe comic that either got lost or accidentally sold away. All I can remember of it is that, compared to the blue/pink laser cartoon, it was pretty fucking brutal. The issue I had involved an interrogation scene with a guy beaten to a pulp and very nearly getting a pencil jabbed into his eye. Then later on the Joes use matches to get rid of leeches in a swamp.

I wouldn't mind reading more of those, though by that I don't mean I'm willing to actually buy old issues. Anyone know if there's perhaps scanned pdf versions of them found anywhere? I guess it's not too likely, but still.

I had one of those where they attack destro and he KILLs one of the joes. Then some jamacain guy shoots someone in the face with a grappling hook. I beleive it was "GI Joe Extreme"

I had some GI Joe VS Transformers comics. They were incredibly stupid but they were pretty sweet.

That sounds awfully awesome. Does Shipwreck go up against... let's see... Defensor?

Again FS, it sounds like you're wanking when you type that. Whatever floats your boat, baby.

GI Joe was pretty fucking hardcore back in the '80s. I also have fond memories of the Transformers as well. Shit, whatever happened to comics that rocked like that??

Talk about subversive.
