SeanHOST
Uh, the three titles that they've revealed so far are Punisher: Suicide Run.
SeanHOST
This is the Stephen Grant, Chucks, Chuck Dixon, and Larry Hama stuff.
SeanHOST
Uh, Daredevil: Devil in Cell Block D, the, the Brubaker, Lark, and Aja stuff.
SeanHOST
And then, uh, All New Hawkeye by Lemire and Perez.
Chuck DixonGUEST
... exactly.
Chuck DixonGUEST
And then I would make runs up to Marvel and DC for years and years, and then finally, I got a break from a company in California called Eclipse to write a title called Airboy, and almost within two weeks, got a break at, got my first work at Marvel through, uh, Larry Hama, who worked a lot on G.I. Joe-
Rich ValdésHOST
Yeah
Chuck DixonGUEST
... which you're very familiar with.
8 MINS LATER
Rich ValdésHOST
A- a- any mentors that you've had?
Chuck DixonGUEST
Um, well, y- Archie Goodwin, uh, he edited at Marvel and DC.
Chuck DixonGUEST
Uh, Larry Hama, very much so a mentor.
Chuck DixonGUEST
He gave me a lot of great advice early on.
Tony EsmondHOST
Yeah.
Daniel ButcherHOST
Larry Hama.
Tony EsmondHOST
Oh, you would love that, wouldn't you?
Vince HuntHOST
Yeah, yeah.
Daniel ButcherHOST
Larry Hama.
Vince HuntHOST
He's on my, he's on my list.
Tony EsmondHOST
Actor.
Daniel ButcherHOST
Yeah.
Zaki HasanHOST
Mm-hmm.
Zaki HasanHOST
And he speaks in reverential terms for Larry Hama, who wrote those books and what he brought to it.
Zaki HasanHOST
And it's just, it's all my language.
Zaki HasanHOST
Because G.I. Joe, specifically the Marvel comics, was just my lifeblood when I was growing up, when I was living in Saudi Arabia, because that was one of the only comic books that you could get regularly there.
Zaki HasanHOST
Everybody needs to find their place within the group, and you need to come up with the thing that no one else can do but you can do.
Zaki HasanHOST
And when I was a kid, I liked G.I. Joe because they were toys.
Zaki HasanHOST
But the more I read about Larry Hama, who wrote it, he was a Vietnam vet, and he created all of this lore for all of these characters.
Zaki HasanHOST
Some of them were even inspired by guys he served with.
Grant StoyeGUEST
And I was a fan then.
Grant StoyeGUEST
And then I got obsessed during the Larry Hama eras of the, of the book.
Grant StoyeGUEST
And having those, those pieces of his history selected, like the Silver Fox stuff, the, the John Wraith stuff, all the stuff I heard was gonna be in the movie, and I was so excited.
Grant StoyeGUEST
And I went to a midnight showing.
18 MINS LATER
ChrisHOST
And I've, it's a criticism I've seen of some people with the game just from a game mechanic standpoint of like how can you lose in a game where you have a character that heals like that, but also it's Wolverine, and if you have a problem with that, just play on a harder difficulty.
Grant StoyeGUEST
Yeah.
Grant StoyeGUEST
That, that kind of grinds my gears just because in, when he first appeared up through, geez, like the Larry Hama run, this, his Claremont stuff is he would take damage and he would have to like take a step back to heal.
Grant StoyeGUEST
Like, it wasn't that instantaneous stuff that he, that he's had for like the last 20 some odd years.
Jen StansfieldHOST
Mm-hmm.
Shawn MarekHOST
Larry Hama, still the writer.
Jen StansfieldHOST
Yeah.
Shawn MarekHOST
Aaron Lopresti does the art.
SteveHOST
Like, y- this is a useless scenario.
SteveHOST
And I'd be like, "Well, shit, this is the scenario that Larry Hama seems to have constructed in the book, so, you know?"
Ben Flying RetroHOST
Yeah.
SteveHOST
Uh, that's my precedent, but it doesn't work.
speaker_2HOST
Skybound has also relaunched the classic G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero comic.
speaker_3HOST
Continuing the old numbering from the 1980s Marvel run with writer Larry Hama.
speaker_2HOST
But that classic book is strictly separate from this new modern Energon Universe.
speaker_3HOST
Good catch.
Stephen SchleicherHOST
Uh, this is Kyle Higgins on the, uh, on the, uh, writing duties, and Elena Casagrande and Alex Gamarez, uh, o- on art.
Stephen SchleicherHOST
And this is definitely set in the Image Comics/Larry Hama G.I. Joe universe, and not the Skybound, um, Robert Kirkman G.I. Joe universe.
Stephen SchleicherHOST
N- those two things are very distinct from one another, mainly because, uh, the Baroness and Destro are back on Cobra Island looking for something.
Stephen SchleicherHOST
They're gonna try to set up a base there, or they're looking for something.
Stephen SchleicherHOST
And...
Stephen SchleicherHOST
This is definitely set in the Image Comics slash Larry Hama G.I. Joe universe and not the Skybound Robert Kirkman G.I. Joe universe.
Stephen SchleicherHOST
Those two things are very distinct from one another, mainly because the Baroness and Destro are back on Cobra Island looking for something.
Stephen SchleicherHOST
They're going to try to set up a base there or they're looking for something.
