You realize it wouldn’t be too lengthy till Skybound introduced new G.I. Joe titles as a part of its smash-hit Energon Universe. Sure sufficient, at this time the writer introduced that fan-favorite characters Shana “Scarlett” O’Hara and James McCullen Destro XXIV will probably be headlinig their own restricted sequence.
First up, the Scarlett miniseries from red-hot author Kelly Thompson (Black Widow, Birds of Prey) and artist Marco Ferrari (Frontiersman) launches June 5, 2024.
Official description:
Shana “Scarlett” O’Hara is about to tackle probably the most harmful black ops mission of her profession: infiltrating the mysterious rising energy in Japan generally known as the Arashikage Clan. Her one lead is her former companion—Jinx—turned Arashikage enforcer. Now, Scarlett should use her operative abilities to outlive undercover… and uncover a stunning weapon that would change the steadiness of energy on Earth.
Thompson expressed nice pleasure:
“I’m fortunate that, thanks to my job, I often get to dig into characters and worlds that I’ve loved for a long time. But G.I. JOE’s Scarlett is truly one of my first geek loves as a kid, and I am absolutely thrilled to have a hand in building her for this new, incredibly cool and rich universe at Skybound.”
Artist Marco Ferrari added:
“I’m very excited to join the Scarlett team and to use every tool in my toolbox to bring her to life in this new series,” stated “I can’t wait for everyone to dive into Scarlett’s mission with us!”

Next up, acclaimed author Dan Watters (Loki, Universal Monsters: Creature from the Black Lagoon Lives!) and artist Andrei Bressan (Dark Ride, Birthright) launch Destro #1 on June 19, 2024.
James McCullen Destro XXIV is the person behind M.A.R.S. Industries, the undisputed chief in offering high-tech weapons to world powers…for the appropriate value. But the emergence of Energon has modified all the things. As Destro’s ambitions develop, the “Crimson Twins” Tomax and Xamot Paoli emerge to destroy their competitors, and Cobra Commander realizes his present ally could possibly be his future biggest enemy.
Those who’ve been studying the present Duke restricted sequence are nicely conscious Destro has been showing and working within the shadows.
Watters teased what’s to return:
“I’m incredibly excited to bring Destro to life with Andrei. This is going to be a visceral, explosive thriller in which he [Destro] isn’t very nice to anyone at all — everything you’d want from your favorite amoral arms trafficker.”
Artist Andrei Bressan added:
“I just can’t wait to see what Dan has planned for Destro!” stated . “I’m pretty excited because everything going on with the Energon Universe so far has been bonkers and Destro…he is just an absolute bad***, ready to kill and destroy.”

Sean Mackiewicz, SVP, Publisher, Skybound, touted the unbelievable success of the Energon Universe.
“Duke and Cobra Commander were two of the highest-selling G.I. JOE comics of all-time, and they’re only the start of our new beginning for the amazing G.I. JOE franchise. With G.I. Joe and Cobra now locked on an unavoidable collision course, Scarlett and Destro will introduce new characters and factions that will disrupt their most carefully laid plans. Kelly Thompson, Marco Ferrari, Dan Watters, and my favorite madman, Andrei Bressan are crafting action-packed, jaw-dropping comics that will forever change the Energon Universe.”
