Writer Brandon Easton is a longtime friend of the show and it’s been awesome seeing his career take off. This week his long comic book resume, from Andre The Giant’s official biography to Transformers to the upcoming M.A.S.K., adds a Marvel book to the list with ‘Civil War II: Choosing Sides’! Brandon talks about getting the gig, what changes he’s making to M.A.S.K. and the issues of adapting popular properties to comics! He also touches on his time writing for Marvel’s ‘Agent Carter’ TV series and his thoughts on DC’s Rebirth! Plus, I give my opinion on ‘Finding Dorey’ and I loved ‘Warcraft’!

What happens when two of the world’s most evil organizations join forces? We get a potentially awesome comic book!

Announced during Capcom’s Street Fighter V panel at Comic Con, IDW Publishing is releasing Street Fighter X GI Joe, a crossover event that brings together the Real American Heroes and the World Warriors. As the kind of stuff our Saturday mornings were made of back in the day, it’ll be interesting to see how well these worlds mesh together when the series is released in 2016.

While details are few, this sounds like an idea that’s crazy enough to work, (or at least give us a good laugh along the way.) Considering how well other comic crossovers have worked in the past though, I feel like this has a chance to surprise people throughout its run as much as the announcement surprised us in itself. Just imagine all of the wacky shenanigans a super powered dictator and an egotistical commander can get into together!

Will this series be on your radar? Let us know what you think!
