Advice from the past!



Ladies and Gentleman, your dinner if you attend "COIL CON II". I don't get this goofy shit, even as a kid the idea of making something food "Fun" didn't sit well with me.




Remember back in the day when kids were told to fuck off outside for 16 hours? Man that was good parenting.




Amazingly, people still customize like this, they've also graduated to White-Out, too.



Fun fact: I doubt anyone would pay $5.00 for a Marvel G.I. Joe comic anymore!



Jesus, look at Destro's bare chest. I guess prior to just being a coke user he was a gay porn star. Also note the Cobra Officer in a black costume in the back, I expect someone might care about that. However this is actually pretty good G.I. Joe art considering how awful most of it is.





You fucks should probably do this, it'll amuse me.

Action Force Comics

G.I. Joe is one of those properties where everyone gets so goddamned wrapped up in their own stupid idea as to what G.I. Joe is that they disregard absolutely everything else. Cartoon fans won't acknowledge the comic and vice versa, fuck there's even that one dude who posts the same message on every board (except Smash The State: stsforumreview.proboards.com) about how the continuation of the marvel run (16 years after people stopped caring) is bad because the DD comic will be disregarded. Then there's resolute fanboys who are all "Yo man, that was good I mean there was no characterization, it was rushed as fuck and in the end was terrible so I'm not buying the toys but that's totally what G.I. Joe is man!".

Basically those people are all freaks, and I'm unsure where people who are fans of the Action Force comic fit in. Action Force was a weekly comic that was black and white and featured a lot of different things compared to the boring ass G.I. Joe comic. Totally rad stuff like killing and racism.

The good thing about Action Force (other than lots of death and Major Bludd calling Storm Shadow "Jappo") was the fact that characters got a lot of characterization, I mean what the fuck did Torpedo do in Marvel? Nothing! In Action Force there's a story about him going on leave (to the windmill his Dutch ass lives in) and Cobra Commander figures this out and sends Copperhead to kill him. Fuck you Larry Hama! I mean doing a small story about some jerk to sell toys is a lot better than Marvel's "Hell yeah let's introduce Storm Shadow and then in less than a year expose him as being a good guy takin' Cobra down from the inside to find his uncle's killer)

By the way did Storm Shadow ever fucking do anything about that? I mean I remember them being all "Yeah, Zartan did it!" but Storm Shadow never stuck him like a pig, and then Zartan was hanging out teenage kids and became a pseudo good guy. Man why did every fucking Cobra change their ways except like Major Bludd who was all "Aye mate I'm writing an album don't use me between 1987 and 1991" and like Road Pig???

I can't remember what this is supposed to be about so here's an image of Major Bludd calling Stormy "Jappo"




In the end all I have to say is Action Force comix are a fun way to steal characterizations for unpopular characters and to read stories containing G.I. Joes that aren't hella lame (Grand Slam, Snake Eyes, 1985+ G.I. joes are nowhere to be found!)
