4.0 out of 5 stars Good value side show - Go Joe!!!!!, 7 Aug 2008
By Kuma (London) - See all my reviews
The special missions graphic novel collects a series of one off G. I. Joe stories. What makes it different is the idea behind the series. This is essentially a "what happens if the regular G. I. Joe team aren't there?" pattern, the premise is that there are reserve teams of operatives who get assembled at the last minute and have to deal with random threats.

The pleasure in this volume comes from getting a chance to see some fringe characters who otherwise wouldn't get the comic space, old favourites like Beachhead and Jynx get chances to take lead roles in their own stories. The art work is excellent and because the stories are detached from the main G. I. Joe storylines they can be quite effective and suprising.

However in spite of this it has to be seen that the appeal comes from it being different from regular G. I. Joe stories, so see it as light relief rather than an alternative, I think one volume on this idea is probably enough, the story arcs are short so no real depth develops and a lot of the stories use the gimic of having a team assembled with personality clashes or not being right for that mission, sometimes making comedy the priority over story development.

That said it is a great volume and the artwork is worth it alone!!!
