Few creators – especially in the licensed comics world – have as much association with one property as Larry Hama does with GI Joe. Hama, who began writing the series when the license was held by Marvel, has continued with ‘his’ continuity in “GI Joe: Real American Hero,” the IDW continuation of his Marvel run. Because of this, Hama is considered by many the authority on all things comics and Joe. On this current arc that is starting this week, he is joined by Netho Diaz (“Aquaman,” “Dungeons & Dragons: Frost Giant’s Fury”). We are thrilled to share an exclusive preview of issue #246, which comes out on November 29th.
