review:

The Baroness is on the outs with COBRA. She plans on funding her missions by salvaging a ship that went down with a fortune on board. The problem is Cobra wants to retrieve the cargo also, and there is a small, underfunded G. I. Joe team that is tracking her.



Complicating matters are a huge storm at sea, mutinous, greedy sailors and surprise enemies showing up at every turn. It’s a pretty good story with lots of things happening, but it’s all balanced and easy to follow along with. Cobra is evil no matter if it’s the Baroness who is on the outs, or the rest of Cobra trying to stop her. The Joe team is outgunned, but resourceful.



Story by Chuck Dixon is super. Art by Paul Gulacy is top notch. I really like the direction that IDW has taken the G. I. Joe comics that they publish. Serious, intense and satisfying.



I was given a review copy of this graphic novel by Diamond Book Distributors and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for letting me review this graphic novel.
