G.I. JOE A REAL AMERICAN HERO HAMA FILES EDITION #152
Description
THE SECRET ORIGIN OF G.I. JOE! returns in a new Hama Files Edition that reprints the landmark tale revealing how Joe Colton formed the world’s most elite fighting force. This 30th-anniversary celebration revisits the classic origin in a fresh edition that pairs Larry Hama’s behind-the-scenes notes with the iconic art of Phil Gosier, Scott Koblish, and Chi. The volume offers multiple covers—Gosier/Koblish/Chi, a Chris Mooneyham variant, and a foil edition—and includes a special letter from Hama with new insights into the era’s defining moments. NOTE: the book is printed on newsprint for a vintage feel. At about 280 pages, it assembles the core story alongside creator commentary and archival material that deepen appreciation for Joe’s origin and the era’s enduring military-adventure ethos for new readers and longtime fans alike.
