Really, hadn't heard, or read that. While I went a little cross eyed at seeing Matt Trakker change race. Another casualty to political correctness I thought. I was partially surprised as seeing a bit of promotional art for the Paramount/Hasbro Cinematic Universe featuring a rather Ryan Renoylds looking Matt Trakker. Figured Hasbro would like to keep the character white for movie/comic/toyline synergy's sake. I'm okay with him being African-American. I did read some were a little miffed at the new Matt Trakker being a troubled, parentless kid from the streets. They thought that was a little stereotypical for a black character.
Anyhoo, mega-preview for
REVOLUTION'S inaugural issue. And in a world of chaos. The Autobot/Decepticon War on Earth. Optimus Prime announcing the annexing of Earth into the Cybertronian Council of Worlds. G.I. Joe maybe being shown the door to the unemployment office. Cobra a world power. An enigmatic, armored alien named Rom seemingly killing people at random. Now possible terrorist attack by Cybertronians using the Earth based Energon isotope known as Ore-13. The G.I. Joe team has been called back from the brink of shutdown to deal with this threat many in the government look at as an attack by Optimus. It's up to G.I. Joe, and a friend. Former member of Joe Colton's Adventure Team who has a plan to deal with these threats to the world. The man with the plan,
General Miles Mayhem.
