Kate here for your weekly news round-up, but honestly, when I tried to figure out how to explain what happened this week, I felt like that Community GIF where Donald Glover’s character comes back to the apartment after having left to pick up pizza and found the room on fire.

It’s been nearly a year since I reviewed G.I. Joe #1; we should be right on the cusp of issue #12, where writer Paul Allor said he had the series mapped to in our interview. Instead, a pandemic hit on top of all the fascism, and we’re only halfway there.
