G.I. Joe! SMASH



G.I. Joe

Incredible HULK
Issue 430 



It's a new episode of Comics with my Kids,  as the Father and Son team review a new book and an old book.   First up is G.I. Joe issue #1 by Skybound Image comics written by Joshua Williamson art by Tom Reilly.   Logan gives us the synopsis of issue 1,  the classic getting the team together book.   This book picks up after the end of the Duke mini-series.  




Logan tells us about the lineup of Joes. We have Rock N Roll,  Stalker, Cover Girl, Clutch, Baroness, and Duke to round out the team.  We also get an introduction to Cobra's hidden base in Springfield, USA.  



Logan tells us the best bits he likes in the book while Dad talks about the introduction of the Baroness as a Joe instead of a Cobra Confederate. 








Then it's on to Incredible Hulk Issue 430 a random Hulk issue from Logan's comic collection.  Originally published in the mid 1990's this issue presents the supervillain Speedfreek.  An augmented human that has super speed to battle the Hulk. 




As per usual Dad and Logan discuss the high points of the book and the art style of Liam Sharpe a transplant from England that first got his start working of Marvel in the Marvel UK line of books.

Every week, Matt D. grabs a stack of comics and sits down with his two young co-hosts for an unscripted, often hilarious, and genuinely insightful conversation. Comics with my kids is a family podcast that explores the colorful panels and sprawling storylines of graphic novels through the unfiltered perspectives of childhood. You’ll hear genuine reactions, surprising plot predictions, and the kind of earnest questions that only a kid can ask, all gently guided by Matt’s own lifelong enthusiasm for the medium. The discussions are less about formal critique and more about shared discovery, capturing the moment when a new character becomes a favorite or a confusing twist gets unraveled together. It’s a window into how stories resonate across generations, filled with laughter, tangents, and the occasional debate over superhero costumes. This podcast celebrates the simple act of reading together, turning the pages of a comic book into an adventure for all three voices in the room. Listen in for a uniquely charming and heartwarming take on the world of sequential art, where the review is just the starting point for a much bigger family conversation.
