G.I. Joe Resolute, it's what 80's kids have been waiting for.

Watch them online at Adult Swim Give them your full support if your in the US, maybe if we can make this a success we'll see more.
For the rest of us that can't watch the US site we got the Youtubes so take a quick look there for the first three episodes.
We all know there is a G.I.Joe movie coming out but if you seen the trailer and your a fan of the original G.I.Joe chances are your not exactly fond of what you saw, even if you are odds are you wish they could make a true update to the cartoon we all knew and loved. If you never saw the cartoon some read the Marvel comic, now comes what some of us have been wanting well over a decade for, a true sequel to G.I.Joe and unlike the movie it's no disappointment. Better yet it's changed with the times and grown up with us yet keeps what we first loved about it ages ago taking the best of both the cartoon and comic merging them into one.
What more needs to be said except Yo Joe.
Or is that Cooooooooooooooooobra?

Anyway... Neat. Very neat.
Surprisingly violent too. I'll keep watching though.
Cant wait to see the rest.
and Cobra. They ain't fucking around this time. Was Putin that big of a threat?
I hope this turns into a regular series.
It was cool X 2. I can't wait for the next ep.
Ouch. This Cobra guy is pretty ruthless.
I also, oddly enough, approve of Cobra Commander's voice/interpretation. :^:
This.
Also, "I didn't know we had a ninja" cracked me right the hell up.

As a child of the 80s, I would like to get in on the ground floor of this opportunity.
I'm getting sick of this style of animation.
That being said I manage to find it fun and interesting. Story-wise its a step up, but then again it is Warren Ellis.
It looks like it's by the studio who does The Boondocks.
EDIT: Beaten by Kipling!
It's still leaps and bounds over a lot of the overly colorful, hurried drawn Saturday morning style that seems to be pervading animation from various countries (I blame TTGL).
It does look similar to The Boondocks, though at this size, some of the quality is lost.
Stephen Blum. He's a whole lot of voices at this point, but got famous being Spike Spiegel.
Ahh that's it. He also did the villain in Kenshin who's name escapes me.
He's also Roger Smith.
I think his first big 'breakout' was Roger Smith in The Big O, but that's just in my experience. Cowboy Bebop is definitely what he's famous for.
EDIT: Beatin' by Violent Chemistry. Darn.
"Sir, the Pentagon is under attack, what should I do?"
" Get G.I. Joe on the case, dammit."

This does seem a little ninja-heavy, though.
You're dead to me.
It's ten episodes long, and one so far is ninjas. I'm sure we'll see plenty of not-ninja action.
They tried to bury us. They didn't know that we were seeds. 2018 Midterms. Get your shit together.
total forgot about Big O. At first I thought you were talking about this fine fellow
I just woke up:P
Oh, you poor bastard, that is a horrible image to wake up to.
As someone who really likes and enjoyed Stand Alone Complex and its animation style, I'm very much okay with that.
Totally off topic, but I approve. :^: Not about GI Joe, but the other thing.
Maybe they could call themselves "G. I. Joseph" and it would sound a little more formal.
Or make him a robot (Galvanized Iron).
