Great Source of Info for Joe Fans!

The G.I. Joe Battlefiles Index is kind of like those old Marvel Universe comics from the 1980's. Inside you'll find profiles of all the Joe Team and Cobra Members, as well as the various affiliates and splinter groups. The Joe listing begins with all of the current Joe Members and includes everything you could ever want to know about each character including real names (unless classified), how they joined the Joe team, their various skills and fields of expertise and much, much more. They are actually far more detailed than the Marvel Universe. It also includes deceased operatives and a history of how the Joe team was formed. The Cobra section is pretty much the same and includes a history of Cobra but they are broken down into groups such as Destro's forces, The Dreadnoks, etc...There is also a Cobra chain of command listing all of the various troop types such as the Crimson Guard, Tele-vipers, and so on. But it's not just an index of personnel. One of the things many people love about the G.I. Joe comics is the weaponry and vehicles employed by Joe and Cobra and those are also spotlighted and include information on size, weight, speed, and armament. Great art accompanies the text by Many artists and it complements the work very well. This is a nice source book for anyone who is a fan of the G.I. Joe team and updated for the 21st century as well with current continuity. Great stuff!
