One of the books available for FCBD 2010 will GIJoe 155.5 - continuing where the Marvel series left off. Written by Larry Hama, "continues his classic G.I. JOE run right here, and RELAUNCHES THE ORIGINAL SERIES!".
I have to admit, I quit around issue 135 or so when it began to feature Ninja Force as the lead but I have enjoyed his GIJoe:Origins issues.

Larry Hama did good in my eyes with Devil's Due's Storm Shadow series and the more recent Origins tale, but when he tries to "go back to Marvel" like he did with Frontline and Declassified, it felt a little less natural, even forced at times.
But hopefully, my fears will be completely unjustified and this book will turn out to be totally kick-butt.

On the other, I did enjoy the DD run that continued from about the same point, and with this it will be completely written off., and that is a complete shame.

On one hand I like that they are going back to the original series, I'm warming to the IDW run but I'm still just not enjoying it as much as I feel I should be.

Yeah, but all the guys that Devils Due killed off will still be alive and kicking.
This might get me back into it. Can I order it to be shipped to my house?

I actually quit when it became Ninja Force. I wish I'd have picked up 155 though.
