G.I. JOE #14

/ / Comics

G.I. JOE #14Shifting the focus from Siren back to the JOEs, G.I. JOE #14 plays on several of the current comic’s ongoing storylines including Cover Girl‘s continued distrust of Duke, Hashtag‘s return to action after being temporarily sidelined, and the JOEs becoming aware of the existence of Cobra’s newest recruit and tracing her message for help back to a Cobra training compound.

After a pair of issues focused specifically on Siren and her weaving the history of Cobra, I’m glad to finally get back to the JOEs. Opening up with Hashtag’s new role as the team’s communication expert we see her becoming both obsessed with the encrypted message from Siren and the fallout of a Cobra trap that put many JOE lives in danger.

Paul Allor’s choice to pair up Cover Girl and Hashatag on a covert mission without Duke’s approval works well (even if it may be far too late to save Siren and her son at this point). Dealing with what they find should prove challenging for the two women and their small team. Worth a look.

[IDW, $3.99]

Mind Games - Apophenia

With a reporter gunning for a takedown piece on the brothers’ new company and new job involving changing the mind of a Congressman just days before a vote, Ross (Christian Slater) and Clark (Steve Zahn) have their hands full. Things get no easier when the success of bringing out the Congressman’s old personality (by recreating the sounds and smells of the time when gun-legislation was all that mattered to him) to pass an important gun bill also renews friction between the politician and the son who hired them which hits all too close for Clark who is determined to set things right and makes an emotional appeal to Ross, Megan (Megalyn Echikunwoke), Sam, Miles (Gregory Marcel), and Latrell (Cedric Sanders) for their help by attempting to use the subconscious to bring father and son back together again.
