Comic Book Review! Classic Game Room Comics Review reviews G.I. JOE issue #2 from Marvel comics, August 1982! GI JOE is the greatest American Hero ever! Even though they are fictional… The second issue of GI JOE is considered a collector’s item and is worth a great deal of money today. If you had a bunch of first printings of GI JOE #2 they would be worth more than your mortgage or 401K after the recent housing crisis and stock market collapse. G.I. Joe could have saved that I might add (it was Cobra’s doing, Destro was in charge of issuing sub-prime mortgages and Baroness worked Wall Street). This is a unique comic book from the G.I.JOE series because G.I. JOE isn’t fighting Cobra, they are actually researching strange happenings at research bases the Arctic! No, this isn’t the Thing and Kurt Russell doesn’t have a beard, this is Snake Eyes, Scarlett, Stalker and Breaker hunting down an assassin and trying to save the world! GI JOE #2, is this comic for you? Check it out. This is actually a second printing so it isn’t worth much money these days, but it is a very fun and entertaining read and one that you should consider after watching the review. YOOO, CGR COMIC BOOK REVIEWS!

Eric Burns, author and former host of “Fox News Watch,” recounts deliberately false and error prone stories that exist within the history of American journalism. Mr. Burns profiles the authors and their motivations that range from Samuel Clemens’s (Mark Twain’s) bogus discovery of a 100-year-old “Petrified Man” and Benjamin Franklin’s fabricated report of “The Trial of Miss Polly Baker.” This event was hosted by Barnes & Noble in New York City.
