capn_carrot's G.I. Joe #5 - Homefront, Part 5 of 5 review

    Homecoming comes to an end

    The new G.I. JOE series ends its first story arc with an explosive finale (literally) that can only be seen as a victory for Cobra (although Cobra Commander doesn't exactly see it that way as the Baroness is denied promotion for not fulfilling all of her objectives).

    The issue is filled with quite a bit of action as the JOEs attempt to stop Cobra from blowing up the Northeastern town in a way that many will blame the JOEs and not Cobra. We also get the faceoff between the Baroness and Hashtag who may not be able to help save the day this time but that doesn't mean she's going to give up.

    It's an interesting choice to give Cobra such a big public relations victory at the beginning of the series. We'll have to wait to see what exactly the fallout will be in the coming months.
