    IDW/HASBRO: Action Man in June

    AM_01_cvrSUB-600x911.jpg

    The British renaming and repackaging for GI Joe… because no one knew what a GI Joe was – and they kept their full twelve inches rather than being shrunk down to an action figure line, as well. Their own back story based around the British special forces, that has now inspired a new comic book line courtesy of IDW and Hasbro.

    A “rebirth” if you will. Here’s the solicit in question for June. His first appearance however will be in the Rom #0 comic on Free Comic Book Day in May

    Action Man #1—SPOTLIGHT

    John Barber (w) • Paolo Villanelli (a) • Chris Evenhuis (c)

    ACTION MAN IS DEAD—LONG LIVE ACTION MAN! He’s the world’s greatest special agent… until he dies saving the planet, with all the world’s eyes on him. Now his young protégé has to step into the role—whether he’s ready or not!

    I am thinking about get at least the first issue on comixology just to see where it goes.

    I wonder what version of Action Man they will use. The Soldier? Royal Navy? The Adventurer? Space Patrol? Or something original.

      Looks like it's based on the late 90s/early 2000 toy line and cartoon

        That's what I was afraid of. No thank you.
