Hi everyone,

My name is Rob and i am from the Netherlands, but you can call me Sebastian as well. :bludd:

I was collecting GI Joe toys and comics (mainly the Dutch one) since i was a little kid, but had big break in the years leading up to now. It came and went. But the new GI Joe movie gave me another boost. I never really quit collecting the comics, just the toys. For now i try to focus on just the comics, because this is expensive enough, so much to buy... :mrgreen:

I was making a grand checklist of the Joe comics that were published over the years, when i came across Action Force - Red dawn. That is how i got to this website. I also have q quite nice collection of the B/W Battle action force comics i was exited that fans made their own comics and publish them. Two thumbs up for that!

I still cant believe about the colouring project, plain awesome! But i have to wait until next month before i can afford ordering them. I'll just have to be patient...

One thing i missed over the years were forums about the comics. Well, this board is just what i was searching for. Next to the great content of the main website, its a good place to hang out. Btw, i didn’t check m all, but i already checked out some splendid customs!!!

Just to make sure everyone knows, i consider myself a pretty hardcore joe comic collector. Not that i have everything, but one day... ;-) For now i have about 1,5 meter of joe comics, BAF included. And it keeps growing...

Might anyone be interested in the Dutch GI Joe comics "speciale opdracht", just let me know. You don’t seem to find m on Ebay that much, but on local Dutch websites issues appear quite often.

That’s it for my intro, hope to have a nice time on the board.

Cheers!

Welcome to the gang! Please make yourself at home.

I know that Antarctica is crazy for international Joe comics. Are you offering them for sale, or as scans?

Thank you both.

I am not fond of digital comics, i like the paper hardcopies.
As i said, they appear quite often over here for sale. But i would rather trade them. So i would buy them, and get something nice for it in return. Just checked and several issues were available... Just like 4 out of 6 videotapes in Dutch :-)

Is it correct that Antarctica is of Yojoe?
I recently sent them an email about the Dutch comic, and placed a reminder about it on the forum. But no reply up untill now :-(

Then i hope he will give me a possitive answer, since i think we can make a kick ass update for the Dutch comic section of GI Joe - Speciale opdracht. Time will tell... and again... patience... ;-)

Welcome! glad to have you here
! really glad that RED DAWN got you here ! Comics are my passion in the joe realm right now too, I rarely buy the toys anymore but do occasionally pick special items up like BLADES and the HAWK that was recently released by the GI JOE CONVENTION in the USA a few weeks back

big moment for all of us
