For the first time ever, all the characters from the G.I. Joe multiverses - even those who appeared in markets outside of the US - are gathered together in one location. Presented in field guide format, this book includes a history of the toy and comic lines as well as a thorough description of every action figure and character.
While the 1980s was a decade full of political turmoil, it was also a time when toy lines reigned supreme. Many kids from this generation found comfort in the wildly popular G.I. Joe universe--whether it be through a cartoon or an action figure. As G.I. Joe's stories expanded, so did its characters, and everyone had their favorite; be it Hawk and Duke fighting against evil or Cobra Commander and Destro bent on nothing less than world domination.
