Who says being bad isn’t fun?
Following the success SNAKE EYES: DECLASSIFIED, G.I. JOE: DECLASSIFIED, and SCARLETT: DECLASSIFIED, comes DREADNOKS: DECLASSIFIED (SEP063254E), starring that reprehensible, mercenary band of motor bike riders in an all-new 3 issue limited series beginning this November detailing their origins and earliest adventures, courtesy of Devil’s Due Publishing, Inc.
G.I. JOE is under license from the Hasbro Properties Group, the intellectual property development arm of Hasbro, Inc. (NYSE: HAS).
Popular scribe Josh Blaylock (G.I. JOE, G.I. JOE: ARASHIKAGE SHOWDOWN) returns to the G.I. JOE characters, teaming with interior artists Joe Dodd (Nightwing, Human Torch) and newcomer Corey Zayatz, as well as cover artists Clement Suave (Infantry, Stormwatch: Team Achilles) and Francis Manapul (G.I.JOE: DECLASSIFIED, Witchblade, Necromancer). DREADNOKS: DECLASSIFIED, a three-issue limited series shipping bi-monthly starting in November will be 48 pages in length, retailing for $4.95 (Cover A - SEP063254E) and $8.95 (Cover B – cardstock collector cover - SEP063255E).
“Out of all the characters I’ve written, I’ve always gotten the most positive response from readers when I wrote the DREADNOKS,” says writer and Devil’s Due President Josh Blaylock. “Maybe that’s because I just enjoy writing about them. Maybe it’s all the bikers
in my family. [Laughs] Who knows?”
