Now You Know: The Unauthorized Guide to G.I. Joe TV and Comics
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The 1980s: a world of Cold War tensions, Reaganomics, Madonna and MTV. In the midst of this raucous setting, a team of modern-day, tank-driving Arthurian knights lock and load against a terrorist organization determined to take over the world-as well as rip apart our moral fabric with pyramid sales schemes and mind-numbing sitcoms.
Through every triumph and tragedy, each war wound and victory purchased with patriotic blood, Now You Know dissects the ways in which G.I. Joe-America's elite fighting force-clashed with the forces of darkness… not to mention communists, ninjas and giant vegetables.
Now You Know features: Story summaries, reviews, top ten lists and a heap of humorous categories on more than 100 G.I. Joe TV episodes. Full coverage of all G.I. Joe comic series -- past and present! Complete toy price guide and fact-filled appendices.
From the Hard Master's murder to the Cobra Civil War, from Snake-Eyes' origin to the battle for a parallel Cobra-dominated Earth, this guide covers the world of A Real American Hero down to the last detail. Whether you're a die-hard Joe fanatic or a new recruit, Now You Know is your one-stop source for G.I. Joe info!
