Take a look at this fun art poster for the classic animated film of 1987 GI Joe: the filmwho comes from the artist Alex Arizendi. This is a private commission, so unfortunately you can’t buy it, but I had to share it because I love this strange movie!
GI Joe: the film expands on the tradition of Gi joe Universe, immersion headlong in science fiction and ancient evil. The story follows the military elite team GI Joe while they face a new threat: Cobra-La, an ancient hidden civilization that precedes humanity and secretly controls the Cobra command.
When the leader of Cobra-La Golobulus plans to wipe out humanity using mutative spores, the Joes must run against time to stop the global catastrophe.
The film was originally intended for a theatrical release, but in the end it went directly to the videos and broadcast on television due to delays in the production and bankruptcy at the box office of other animated films such as Transformers: the film.
Still, GI Joe: the film It is remembered for its ambitious expansion of the mythology of the franchise, the darkest tone compared to the series and its infamous scene in which Duke is wounded to death, only for a last minute out of field voice to declare that he miraculously fell in a coma instead of dying. Softening the blow for young fans.
Despite its tonal oscillations and mixed reception, it remains a favorite of worship for fans of the franchise.
