Skybound Share A First Look At ’G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero’ #325
by Olly MacNamee
Skybound, Image Comics, and toy company Hasbro have shared a first look at the milestone issue G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero #325, from iconic series writer Larry Hama, artist Chris Mooneyham, colourist Francesco Segala (Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers), and letterer Pat Brosseau. It arrives in comic book shops on February 11th, 2026.
Two new Joes make their first appearance as Duke and Roadblock lead a dangerous cover op into Borovia.
This makes this issue the 25th under the Skybound banner, as Alex Antone, Editorial Director at Skybound states, with two new characters making their debut in the Skybound Energon Universe:
“Larry Hama and Chris Mooneyham launched G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero #301 at Skybound over two years ago, and for our milestone 325th issue, they’re thrilled to introduce two brand-new Joes — Down Range and R.C.!”
Hama elaborated on this announcement:
“The real battle in warfare is technological and tactical. Recent advances and innovations have made the ‘old way’ untenable, so I felt compelled to create two new Joes to counter these deficiencies. ‘R.C.,’ file name Hector M. Salazar is the new Drone Operator. He hails from Boyle Heights in East LA, and he is to unmanned remote-control aircraft and land robotics what Roadblock is to the Ma-Deuce. ‘Down Range,’ file name Hillevi S. Väisänen, is the Scout Sniper. Daughter of a legendary hunting guide from Redwing, MN, it has been said that she can split a Popsicle stick at 200 yards with iron sights on a National Match M-21 in 7.62 NATO.”
