Well since Specialist Matt Trakker of the Mobile Armored Strike Kommand (M.A.S.K.) was made a part of G.I. Joe back with the Real American Hero's Twenty-Fifth Anniversary line.

It seemed apropos to post this bit of news. IDW is at work developing a new M.A.S.K. series to put out in the near future.

That's probably not going to happen sadly. The only Joe books IDW is publishing at the moment are the Larry Hama continuation of A Real American Hero, written by the Godfather of G.I. Joe himself. And G.I. Joe Vs. Transformers which will be wrapping up its run with issue thirteen. Although Hama's Joe book has included cyborg ninjas, and Jaeger sized robots of alien origin in the current run, M.A.S.K. may not be that far out there putting in an appearance in ARAH. Although, I'm hoping if IDW can get their take on Joe out of limbo they got it stuck in, we could also see them show up there as well. The group did get a shout out in TRANSFORMERS PRIME:Beast Huneters in the episode "Project Predacon". An experimental, prototype vehicle , courtesy of the military's M.A.S.K. division, was scanned by Optimus as his new vehicular mode.
Also 2011, as part of the New York Comic Convention(NYCC) ,Hasbro released UNIT-E(http://news.toyark.com/2011/10/17/unit- ... sue-0-4908), which had the various Hasbro brands under one roof. Including M.A.S.K., which had a bit of a different take on property.

Then there seems to be a possibility M.A.S.K. will be getting the big screen, live action treatment in the not so far future. With Hasbro and Paramount developing a Hasbro Cinematic Universe with a writer's room heading up by Akiva Goldsman. Under the Allspark Pictures banner.

I hope MASK will be the same characters we grew up with rather than ones we aren't going to invest any interest in. What I do want to see though is Scott Trakker to be realistically aged not another perennial teenager and for T-Bob's comedy routine to be toned down.

It'd be nice to see some toys too. MASK hit at the end of my childhood so it doesn't have the same appeal as VAM and AF, but still cool none the less.
