If You're in Baaaaaaaaaaddd Trouble

Episode 5 • Jul 21, 2016
It's the Utter Fear
Hama covers a range of topics about the rebirth of G.I. Joe in 1982 - how he got the gig writing the comic, creating the characters and Cobra, Hasbro's sexist views towards female characters, and "the fear" that fuels his writing.
Episode 6 • Jul 21, 2016
Making Them Stand Up and Walk Around
Hama shifts G.I. Joe gears to the creation of the character military dossiers on the back of the action figure packaging - how they came to be, then actually reads some of the original, unedited copy that he wrote 30 years ago.
