FIRST LOOK AT SERPENTOR KHAN’S SURPRISE IN G.I. JOE: A REAL AMERICAN HERO #303

Serpentor Khan boasts arguably the coolest (and certainly most fanciful) design of any classic G.I. Joe character. So we’re happy to see the Cobra Emperor take center stage in the next issue of Skybound’s G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero! Check out a gallery of pages and covers from Larry Hama and Chris Mooneyham’s G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero #303, after these official words on the ish…

Today Skybound, in collaboration with leading toy and game company Hasbro, revealed all-new interior pages from G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero #303 by legendary series writer Larry Hama (Marvel’s Wolverine), fan-favorite artist Chris Mooneyham (DC’s Nightwing, Sgt. Rock and the Unknown Soldier) and colorist Francesco Segala (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers). Featuring covers by the incomparable Andy Kubert (Marvel’s X-Men), issue #303 of the iconic series arrives in comic book shops on January 17, 2024.

The Joes send a covert team to learn the truth about Springfield, but Serpentor Khan has a deadly surprise in store for them…

In addition to the main cover by Andy Kubert and colorist Brad Anderson, issue #303 will also feature an open-to-order variant cover with a black and white version of Kubert’s stunning main cover, and a 1:10 incentive cover series by Brad Walker (Detective Comics) and colorist Francesco Segala.

Fans should expect can’t-miss moments from every issue of the Energon Universe, as secrets are unveiled along the path to answering the BIG questions, including #WhereIsMegatron.

BEHOLD BRAD WALKER & FRANCESCO SEGALA’S COVER SERIES FOR G.I. JOE: A REAL AMERICAN HERO

Let’s cut to the chase here — when G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero returns to comics with issue #301 next month it’ll sport a series of variant covers that in and of themselves will have made the wait worthwhile. Artists Brad Walker and Francesco Segala have given each issue from 301 to 305 a cover highlighting a different iconic Joe and Cobra, and boy howdy do they look pretty! Check them out in the gallery below, after these official deets from Skybound HQ…

Today Skybound, in collaboration with leading toy and game company Hasbro, debuted an incredible set of all-new G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero variant covers from comics superstar Brad Walker (Detective Comics) and Francesco Segala (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers). Kicking off the relaunch of the landmark comic series at Skybound, Walker’s covers showcase iconic G.I. JOE characters and their Cobra counterparts.

“Some of the very first comics I ever bought were early issues of G.I. JOE, and they informed much of my love of the medium. I particularly remember the covers blowing my young mind, month after month,” said Brad Walker. “Getting to contribute to that legacy is really exciting. Plus, it’s been a blast to explore these characters that I probably haven’t drawn since I was nine or ten years old. Hopefully the fun I have drawing them comes across to the fans!”

These all-new covers will appear as variants to G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero #301-#305, each featuring an iconic member of G.I. JOE and an unforgettable member of Cobra, marking a new era for one of the longest running non-superhero comics of all time. G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero launches at Skybound with legendary series writer Larry Hama (Marvel’s Wolverine) continuing his record-breaking run on the series, joined by fan-favorite artist Chris Mooneyham (DC’s Nightwing, Sgt. Rock and the Unknown Soldier) and colorist Francesco Segala breathing new life into the iconic characters. G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero #301 arrives in comic book shops on November 15, 2023.

A new era for G.I. JOE begins in G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero #301 with this jumping on point for new readers as your favorite characters – Duke, Scarlett, Roadblock, Storm Shadow, Cobra Commander, Serpentor and more – are back for new battles, new friends, new enemies and…THE RETURN OF THE ORIGINAL SNAKE-EYES!

The return of G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero continues the historic collaboration between Skybound and Hasbro, seeing the return of the G.I. JOE franchise to comics as overseen by visionary creator Robert Kirkman (Invincible, The Walking Dead), alongside the all-new shared Energon Universe that features Void Rivals by Kirkman and artist Lorenzo De Felici (Oblivion Song), TRANSFORMERS by writer/artist Daniel Warren Johnson, Duke by writer Joshua Williamson (DC’s Superman, Dark Ride) and artist Tom Reilly (The Thing), and Cobra Commander by writer Joshua Williamson and artist Andrea Milana (Impact Winter: Rook).
