    Major Spoilers - Brandon Dingess

    Aug 19, 2012

    For my money, Chuck Dixon's "G.I. Joe" is simply one of the best books available right now, so the lull of this issue shouldn't be seen as something inherent to the title. This book has done a lot to shake up the G.I. Joe mythos and give it a lot of verisimilitude, so, consequently, it can feel like a letdown when an issue is just "great" and not "tremendously fantastic." I've not doubted this book since it re-launched and I'm not letting one mediocre experience sour the title""it's worth reading even if it's not the shiniest gem in the chest. Pick it up if you're a Joe fan, but you can easily wait until the next issue to start a new arc. Read Full Review

    Geekality - Patrick Halpin

    Aug 14, 2012

    G.I. JOE is a book that somehow manages to be complicated and clear as day at the same time. It usually juggles about four intertwining plot threads while still dropping the occasional scene that foreshadows threats that have yet to come. This issue sees the current arc come to an end as all four of these plot threads skillfully come together in a combat heavy conclusion while giving us not one but two separate tidbits about threats to come as well as setting up the next major arc, which looks like it may be the Joes being forced underground as Cobra's grip on the U.S. government grows stronger.

    Unleash The Fanboy - Edward

    Aug 15, 2012

    In short, this is a reasonable issue. G.I Joe #16 wraps up an excellent arc, and suggests a more interesting future for the series. Read Full Review
