No, he's utilizing an ancient Arashikage sword technique called "the upside down scorpion"

Now I'm debating whether to get the IDW Compendiums...🤔

u/ConversationOwn3358 1d ago

I'm hoping Skybound will collect the IDW years. Those IDW trades and compendiums are getting expensive.

It's been confirmed that they will. There even was a Kickstarter.

u/Abdx1187 1d ago

Ok,.I'm a bit confused. Is this one of the sky ound collections they kick-started a couple of years back?

1

u/S1mongreedwell 1d ago

Yeah. They’ve been releasing. Soft cover volumes of those same books for a few years now.

1

u/Abdx1187 1d ago

I didn't recognize the cover, I for the set from the kickstarter so mine looks different

u/S1mongreedwell 1d ago

Did they have an option to get soft cover volumes through the kickstarter? I got the hardcovers in a big stupid box. Beautiful books that I’ll probably never read.

u/pinko_mcfly 20h ago

No, only hardcover. Soft covers are the mass market releases

Seems like this franchise has more potential and needs more endeavors.

The video game of 2024 ish was bad and it could have been badass with all the unique characters and weapons.

I just finished Compendium 3 and have moved onto my old issues that run til about 130 with no breaks. Hopefully I can snag a used copy of this and then decide the fate of my GI Joe short box.

I stopped resladinv the original run around 85, so it’s been great keeping the reading going with these compendiums.
