  Unleash The Fanboy - Edward

  In short, there is a lot to take in in this issue. I'm also loving the art style, seeing a more Danger Girl-esque take on various Joe's. With action, dialogue and everything in between, the next issue is certainly looking to be an explosive finale. Read Full Review

  Comic Bastards - Matt Wilkins

  Everything in this comic is so over-the-top it's going down on the other side. You heard me. Cobra Commander hisses, Ninjas abound, Roadblock gives a body massage, Destro sublty implies his superiority. It's everything you love about GI Joe to the maXXX. I'm sure there are girls out there who'd enjoy it, too. Just don't let a girl see YOU reading it. Read Full Review

  Major Spoilers - Matthew Peterson

  It's easy to dismiss a comic like Danger Girl as being nothing but inessential cheesecake, but to do so would be a huge disservice to a fun reading experience. The history of Danger Girl plays a part in this issue (though I don't know if it's in Abbey's "official" canon, presuming there even IS such a thing after her third publisher) as do bits and pieces of Joe lore, which makes the book fun for someone who is a casual fan of both Danger Girl's book and G.I. Joe's cartoon. (I'm a bit more hardcore about G.I. Joe comic continuity, but that's a very different beast, in most ways.) Danger Girl/G.I. Joe #4 sticks the landing, looks good and doesn't distract me with the female form (though mileage can certainly vary), earning 3 out of 5 stars overall. It's an above-average chapter of a book that wants only to entertain you, and what could be wrong with that? Read Full Review
