can GI JOE Crossovers be far behind ?

Got Action Man #1. There is mention of "Joe Colton's team" in the U.S. (obviously G.I. JOE). Unfortunately, we have a new Action Man, because the previous one (the first?) has been killed and replaced. Of course, nobody stays dead in comics for long...

nice to hear that they mention joe coltons team ! that's a nice crossover to come someday !

Action Man #2 came out. A.M. (Ian, the new "Action Man") is on the trail of Dr. X. Also, a teaser on the last 4 pages for the new "Revolution" cross-universe reveals that Joe Colton was friends with the original Action Man. Pretty cool! (This is, of course, not the Hama "RAF" universe, but the newer IDW one that is returning all the characters from that run.)

Just read issue 4 of the IDW run and Baron Ironblood gets mentioned twice.

whoa ! really, that would be awesome to see him in the comics

[action-figure-supplies]

Indeed it would. I doubt it's going to happen for a while though as Action Man's now tied in to Revolution so he's off looking for ORE-13 for a while. Unless Dr. X is also after it and the Baron has some laying around spare?

Last issue (#4) Baron Ironblood gets a mention, page 8. Quite well tied up I thought.
