Anyone read this? Saw it in B&N and was curious if it was worth the pick-up.

i did read the first GI JOE Infestation, it was less zombie and more cybernetic artificial intelligence. it introduced some new names to me and some very hostile tactics from the Baroness, all in all, pretty cool.

New Names?

Any new characters introduced

_________________

I'm not sure if they are new or not, but I didn't hear of them till I read this issue. Apparently they are recruits under the guidance of Psyche Out. Hound and Dolphin. Guy and girl. I don't want to give anything away but they will never make figures of them. A lot like the Cobra Civil War. Just adding characters.

Is the Joe on in continuity?

I saw they have an Infestation 2 on the way including TMNT this time.

Not the Hama continuity but the other IDW Joe-verse supposedly....

So it's probably not worth picking up?

I saw the TPB for GI JOE Vol 1 (Hama 155 1/2+ run) that worth getting or more of the same?

Thats the ONLY comic I collect... If you liked the first 155 then you'll like this... some of the same but a lot of difference as well....lots of toy placements with vehicles and the like..

The first Infestation was a grand waste of time, it was not a good book. I don't see this one being any different. It also doesn't help that I am not much into Lovecraft

Thanks for the heads up on these guys. I may pick up the GI JOE Vol 1 (Hama run, since it's about the 5th Vol 1 now). Sorry for the late replies - not on as much as normal.
