G.I. Joe is a comic book series by IDW Publishing, based upon Hasbro's G.I. Joe characters and toy line. The series was marketed as three ongoing series (''G.I. Joe'', ''G.I. Joe: Origins'', ''G.I. Joe: Cobra II''), two mini-series (''G.I. Joe: Cobra'' & ''G.I. Joe: Hearts And Minds'') and a small series of one-shots (''G.I. Joe: Special''). An issue #0, was released in October 2008, containing three stand-alone stories which acted as previews for the main ''G.I. Joe'' series, ''G.I. Joe: Origins'', and ''G.I. Joe: Cobra''. A new mini-series, ''G.I. Joe: Infestation'' was released in March 2011. In the 12th issue of ''G.I. Joe: Cobra II'', the notorious Cobra Commander was killed. This ended all three original ongoing series and resulted in a stand-alone ''G.I. Joe: Cobra Civil War'' #0. This issue spawned two new ''G.I. Joe'' and ''G.I. Joe: Cobra'' ongoing series and a ''G.I. Joe: Snake Eyes'' ongoing series which took the storyline into a new direction. IDW's approach to G.I. Joe is similar to their launch of ''The Transformers'', where the history is rebooted and the creators have access to characters from any era of the ''G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero'' line. ==Licensing== Devil's Due Publishing lost the G.I. Joe comics license in January 2008, and published their last G.I. Joe comic in July 2008 with ''G.I. Joe: America's Elite'' #36.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Devil's Due Loses G.I. Joe Comic Book License )〕 The license was then given to IDW Publishing, which was officially announced on May 29, 2008. IDW's G.I. Joe series is a complete reboot of the property, ignoring the continuity from the Marvel and Devil's Due incarnations of the comic. On January 15, 2010, Hasbro stated the Devil's Due continuity was no longer canonical: "Fans can read it according to their personal preference, but we are currently taking the brand in a direction that does not take the Devil’s Due story into account." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「G.I.
