Thanks man!! Pretty sure they’re still listed on Modern Mythology at the holiday discounted prices. Some really nice gems there too. (I look often because it’s just what we do, right?)

Reilly's art hasn't really moved me, mainly because it's too simplistic and cartoony for my taste, but credit where its due, he has really stepped up his game with the art in this 1st G.I. Joe issue! Some really nice moments throughout the story and even some higher level techniques used as well as some dynamic and interesting camera angles that I hadn't previously noticed in other art of his that you've previously shown. Great idea for a video, Carl, well done!
For me, it all comes down to his storytelling. Maybe one of the best examples to show from my own collection would be the page I have from Duke #1 & how he intelligently condensed multiple pages of DWJ action from the Duke/Starscream encounter from TF #2 & put it all on one page. He has a knack for placing the camera in the right place. I do quite understand the critique though. I also agree that with Duke & now GI Joe…it does feel leveled up.

@@CarlsCollection As I said, it's simply a question of stylistic preference, not a negative critique on the art quality itself. But yes, your Duke #1 page is fab indeed! 👍
Poor word choice on my part, i honestly didn’t take anything you said as negative. I just took it as an opportunity to talk some more about what I really dig about his art! Wasn’t trying to convince you to love it or have the connection to the art that I do. I just love these sorts of conversations!

@@CarlsCollection Don't worry, pal, I DIDN'T take it that way at all. I was just wanting to make it clear that I wasn't denigrating the art, but rather pointing out that his art style isn't the kind that typically grabs me. All good, man!
I do think it benefited greatly. Each of the mini series established and defined relationships of these versions of the characters. You could start with GI Joe and understand what is going on for the most part, but it will be a much more rewarding read for anyone who has read each of the 4 individual mini series titles.

When you read this issue, did you get the sense that it benefitted from the four mini series that laid the groundwork?

Tom Reilly exemplifies the approach to sequential art Alex Toth preached. Simplify, tell the story.
