Liefeld Assembles All-Star Team for G.I Joe Snake Eyes: Deadgame Finale!
Los Angeles, CA – March 4th 2021 – In celebration of the big finale to the best-selling G.I. Joe comic in decades, Writer/Artist Rob Liefeld has assembled an All-Star team of comic book superstars to finish the G.I Joe – Snake Eyes: Deadgame saga! The book will be released by Hasbro and IDW in April 2021!
“The arrival of the “G.I. JOE, Real American Hero” comic book was a pinnacle of the Bronze Era of comic books!” said Liefeld. “It took fans and retailers by storm, electrifying the industry. As I approached my last issue, I wanted to do something special and unique and create a signature Bronze Era comic experience honoring the legend of G.I Joe for our big finale! I put the call out to some of the biggest and most accomplished names, specifically top inkers and embellishers who shined bright during that age. I asked them if they would each embellish one of my pages or ink a spread and I’ve been floored by both the response and the results of our collaboration! Dream come true!”

Seeing all these guys jam over my pencil art and storytelling is a fantastic experience. It’s a highlight of my 34-year career and a great finish to our G.I Joe Snake Eyes finale!”
