GI Joe Resolute

[Jetman]

So, yeah,written by Warren Ellis- the first two episodes are up at Adult Swim with Part 3 up on Monday and all of these currently watchable on Youtube.

Witness Snake-Eyes slicing through Cobra like he should have been back in the 80's, Firefly being sneaky, and a Joe actually dying.

These are pretty awesome.We need more than 10 and more than 5 minutes long...maybe if these catch on and the movie doesnt shit all over the GI Joe name...

Oh, and if Roadblock asks a Cobra if they want a Body Massage or if Blow Torch asks for a Porkchop Sandwich, I will lose it....

Awesome. Thanks for posting.

Remember though ... April 25th on Adult Swim will be the FULL 60 minute movie. The Webisodes will only show 50 minutes. So for us to see the final ten you HAVE to watch the movie. Also, its being show at Midnight.

Wow I had no idea they were making this. I watched the first one, but ill just wait to watch the full movie. Seems excellent. Thanks for the heads up. I havent even followed the live action movie ever since they announced the director. I know its gonna be trash.

If anybody's interested in a more edgey and serious gi joe - check out the final GI Joe Devil Due story line: World War III. Thats probably my favorite GI Joe story ever and im a huge geek over this stuff. http://www.amazon.com/G-I-Joe-Americ...0104647&sr=8-1

Internet Jesus speaks out on writing this series. (thx advo)

So my brief was to produce a non-tiny-child-oriented GI JOE. Which necessitated reading just a toxic amount of research, leading me to birth an odd, lumpy, normal-for-Norfolk-looking hybrid of the comic and the cartoon. The idea was, as I understand it, that bringing in a writer with absolutely no nostalgia for the property would give them the tone they were looking for. I think they were happy when I presented them with the initial list of characters I was going to just kill. And then the list of things I was going to blow up.

The people at Hasbro were actually remarkably supportive. And I did apologise after shouting at them those times. And they did give me one of those conversations that you never really expect to have when growing up:

HASBRO: No, Warren, you cannot wipe Beijing from the face of the earth.

ME: Shit. (pause) What about Moscow?

HASBRO: Wiping Moscow from the face of the earth would be fine.

Hhahahha. That's awesome.
