THE RED SHADOWS MENTIONED IN DTC #2

[The UK GIJoe]

I was going to order the Dtc comics 1 & 2 but they wanted $50 for shipping I'm sorry I'm not paying that!!!!!! I'll try to get them both from my best mate who runs our only comic shop on the Island. Personallly I'd love to see a relaunch of Action Force/Red Shadows over here in the Uk- 3 3/4inch & O-ringed for better articulation.Maybe BFTB could do Special Edition figures for members with a comic- say a 3 pack with updated file cards or exclusive vehicles with drivers This all might seem like tosh to a lot of people but you never know it might make Hasbro think seriously about relaunching AF with Action Man & his team joining the fight against the Red Shadows

thats wierd, did you do something wrong? like order the 25 copies set? I live in Japan so my shipping cost would be the same as yours and it was no where near that

but in any case you can get your friend to order it through his diamond distributors . it would be cheaper that way im sure

Anyhow, the 2nd issue is the one that mentions BARON IRON BLOOD and the red shadows

now dont get mistaken though on these two DTC comics being the ones with BLADE in it, he doesnt appear in those two, he appears in the 2009 convention comic.

but ya I want to see a relaunch too and getting ACTION MAN relaunched fighting the RED SHADOWS would be very very cool, im sick of Dr. X being the big baddie, the red shadows would be soooo much cooler of an enemy for him

Looks like early Brett Ewins art .. could it be him who drew this ?..I love his work

[jamarmiller]

its sheldon goh who did the interiors

he did a few hasbro comic pack issues too, I love his art!

[fuzzchile]

Very similar style especially the way he draws mouths ..perhaps he's influenced by Kirby and Dikto as Ewins is.. Brett did one issue of Marvel UK comic AF Gas Masque ..he also drew the greatest future war story ever Bad Company for 2000ad..

I'll have to feature Munitia at some point in Red Dusk .. is she a official G.I Joe Character?

yep has a figure and has appeared not only in this comic but the DDP series as well

Bad Company was a great series Fuzz I haven't read much of the first one but I have the second series and Kano follow-on at my parents house.

You really should try and get your hands on first two volumes of Bad Company first class script and art Pete Milligan of course wrote a few A.F stories himself Doom Plague and Manhattan Transfer been two of them .. they were starting to introduce new talent in towards the end of the comics run .
I'll have to look up her character Jamar see how I can fit her into a Ironblood era story..maybe come up with some kind of Red Shadow themed outfit for her too .. she looks good for her age .
