In stores December 7th, G.I. JOE: #8 features writing by Chuck Dixon (Batman, Superman), art by will Rosado (Green Arrow, Robin) and a cover by Tom Feister (Iron Man, green Lantern). After months of COBRA CIVIL WAR, the kills have been tallied and it’s time to name the all-new COBRA COMMANDER. marking this once-in-a-lifetime event, G.I. JOE: #8 will feature a special scratch-off lottery cover, revealing the identity of the new COBRA COMMANDER.

The action and aftermath continue on December 14th in snake EYES #8, written by Dixon with art by Casey Maloney (Star Trek, children of the Grave), as the ninja commando attempts to rescue his teammate, DUKE, who’s been infected by a lethal virus that’s diving him violently mad.

Joe: Hearts and Minds) and Werther dell’Edera (X-Force, Punisher), the reign of the new COBRA commander begins—leading to January’s status-quo shattering COBRA COMMAND crossover series. An unstoppable series of events is set in motion, the world is about to learn what COBRA already knows: this is a very different kind of COBRA COMMANDER.
