‘G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero/Tomb Raider’ #1 Gets A Second Printing
by Olly MacNamee
Guess what? The highly anticipated G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero/Tomb Raider #1, from Skybound/Image Comics/Hasbro and video game developer Crystal Dynamics, has sold out. Probably to no one’s surprise, given the popularity of both franchises. So, that means a second printing and a new cover by artist Annie Wu.
G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero/Tomb Raider #1 is written by Kyle Higgins with art by Elena Casagrande, colours by Alex Guimarães, and letters by Pat Brosseau.
Here’s the synopsis:
“Join the world of G.I. Joe where … knowing is half the battle. Raiding is the other half!
For this adventure, she’ll need the help of her old acquaintance, Shipwreck, and several squads of Joes to mount a dangerous expedition into the heart of the island to recover a treasure that’s been hidden there for decades. One that Destro and Baroness will do anything to get their hands on first…”
And here’s Alex Antone, Editorial Director, on the success:
“If … knowing is half the battle, and raiding is the other half … then maybe the third half is selling? Okay maybe I don’t know how the math works, but I do know that our 2nd printing cover is another stunner! Annie Wu always delivers the goods, and we’re thrilled she’s a part of this historic success!”
G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero/Tomb Raider #1 Second Printing is out on Wednesday, 2nd December from Skybound/Image Comics.
