2007 marks the 25th year since Hasbro introduced the G.I. Joe vs. COBRA storyline, an anniversary that Devil's Due will commemorate with a special wraparound cover for G.I. Joe America's Elite #25, which will feature every important G.I. Joe team member from the past 25 years. The issue will kick off a new 12-issue story arc written by Mark Powers and illustrated by Mike Bear. The special issue, which will include nine extra pages of content, including a fold-out poster of Chris Lie's dynamic and all-inclusive cover, will be released on July 4th.
Devil's Due is sponsoring a consumer contest where fans can go to various G.I. Joe Websites, name the characters on the cover and have a chance to win a halftrack full of G.I. Joe goodies.
