Showdown for the Shadows

http://www.BLOODFORTHEBARON.com and the GI JOE REALM are proud to present the first of many full-colour Battle Action Force stories! Battle Action Force was the long-running UK GI Joe comic which originally featured the RED SHADOWS.

This story is entitled "SHOWDOWN FOR THE SHADOWS", and features Joes such as GRANDSLAM, MUTT, CLUTCH and RECONDO fighting the evil BLACK MAJOR and his renegade RED SHADOWS!

Check out the first FULL COLOUR story here!

Once you're done reading, discuss it (story, art, colours) here in this thread !

Or at the GI JOE realms Action Force section here:

Colourists for this story are:

Roxi "Ickit" Homelvig [page 1] You can find more of her work at:

John Doe [pages 2 to 6]

NOW EVERYONE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE go thank them for a killer job on this debut release, its only because of great colourists like these that we can present these stories, so please show your appreciation by thanking them!

We have lots more coming but we still need more colourists so if you can help please PM or e-mail me! Our plan is to colour all of the galleries at http://www.BLOODFORTHEBARON.com for GI Joe fans everywhere.

We will be releasing colour stories every 2 - 3 weeks for the foreseeable future so keep your eyes open for these great stories finally told in FULL COLOUR, and SEE THE RED SHADOWS return in all their glory!

BLOOD FOR THE BARON!

Colouring really is great, nice start to the project.

Will hopefully have mine finished soon, but have been real busy over the past couple of weeks.

It will be completed.

I have looked on BFTB but most of them still seem to be in black and white.

Thanks to everyone who's helping on the project, it's a real highlight (no pun intended) of my trips round the WWW

I am happy to hear that you are enjoying it, I am having a blast reading them too. Its like seeing stories for the fist time all over again ! I cant believe what a little color can do to these stories,

Okay here is the deal, There will be a new FULL COLOR issue released every 2-3 weeks here. so keep on coming back and checking out the boards for the next issue release. Obviously the next issue will be part two of the ATTACK of THE RED SHADOWS storyline and it will be released on or about the 4th of April.

Talk about the story, talk about the colorist job ,Critique it , offer any insight or helpful hints talk about how the memories come flooding back LOL whatever just discuss and keep on coming back to check out the latest issue !

I just printed this out on nice glossy photo paper and put in a nice protective folder, and let me tell you its sweet!!!

I dont think I would ever buy the expensive old original black and whites now when I can just do that ( mind you its expensive to print these out as well LOL )
