Intelligence - Pilot

Ever wonder what Chuck would have looked like as an action-drama if taken 100% seriously. Yeah, me neither. However, much like they did with taking Psych‘s basic concept and creating The Mentalist, CBS is now giving us a straight drama about a spy walking around with all the government’s secrets neatly tucked away in his head. Working for United States Cyber Command (which is a real organization stuck with a ridiculous name which makes you think they work with Megaforce) Josh Holloway stars as Gabriel Vaughn, an advanced intelligence agent with super-computer microchip in his brain.

G.I. JOE #12

/ / Comics

G.I. JOE #12G.I. JOE begins a new arc with the introduction of Cobra’s latest agent, Siren. Allowing for a story that offers a chance for multiple artists to try their hand at the adventures of previous Cobra Commanders over the terrorist organization’s long history, writer Paul Allor introduces a character who uses storytelling and the spoken word to reshape and control the thoughts of her enemies.

Because the focus is all on Cobra and so much of the story is flashbacks to tales Siren offers various targets the Baroness (who doesn’t understand what Siren does or why Cobra Commander shows faith in her) puts in front of her, G.I. JOE #12 is very different than any other issue of the series.

Focused on telling the legendary and bloody history of former Cobra Commanders, the latest issue fills in readers to just how long Cobra has been operating. It also reminds us that not all of Cobra’s attacks come with a H.I.S.S. Tank, M.A.S.S. Device, or a gun. Worth a look.

[IDW, $3.99]
