Larry Hama returns with 22 pages of awesome!  The comic begins with an intro by Andy Schmidt which actually provides some insight into how this process got started (IDW came to Larry), and how it will continue (witih Larry calling the shots!).  The art, while very faithful to the original outfits, had some new looks for some characters.  I must say, I would be pulling out my wallet for a figure based on the new look of the Baroness.

In addittion, the comic includes some bios of Billy and the Brainwave Scanner which I liked.

And a fabulous question and answer spread with Larry addressing some questions that were posted on the IDW forum.

Welcome back Larry!  I'm thrilled to see this continuation of what is for me the true G.I.Joe.

How'd you get an advance copy?

Is free Comic Book day only in the US? Or can we get this book in Canada? Does any one know? I can not remember the last time I was in a Comic Book store.

It's in Canada as well. I'm taking my son on Saturday.

Didn't really want to publicize that part, since someone might get upset with the person.  

This might be a good comic for Larry to sign if he's at the convention this year...  :)
