“G.I. JOE VS. TRANSFORMERS: THE ART OF WAR will bring together everything that stalwart fans of these properties love,” noted DDP Senior Editor Mike O’Sullivan about the new mini-series, “but the book will feel fresh and accessible for new G.I. JOE and TRANSFORMER readers as well. In addition this title brings together two power house studios, UDON and DDP, who will bring the fans what they’ve been waiting for.”
Says writer Tim Seeley, “Writing these characters has the charm of meeting up with old friends; a pleasure, a privilege, but also a war! And this G.I. JOE and TRANSFORMERS reunion isn’t for the faint of heart! Expect nonstop action, and great characterization… Consider this the end-all, beat down of wars!”
