The Hit Energon Universe Miniseries from Kelly Thompson & Marco Ferrari Continues HERE


Today Skybound and Image Comics, in collaboration with leading toy and game company Hasbro, revealed an impressive lineup of variant covers and interior pages from Scarlett #3, the next chapter of the G.I. JOE miniseries from the all-star team of writer Kelly Thompson (Black Widow, Birds of Prey), artist Marco Ferrari (Frontiersman), and colorist Lee Loughridge (I Hate This Place, Killadelphia). Scarlett #3 hits comic book shops on August 7, 2024. 

Scarlett has fought her way to the Arashikage’s final test—a death-defying mission that could change the Clan’s fortunes. But where do Jinx’s loyalties truly lie? 

Scarlett #3 will feature a main cover by Ferrari, along with a stacked lineup of variant covers including an open-to-order cover by Marcio Takara (Captain Marvel), the third cover in the 1:10 incentive connecting cover series by Gleb Melnikov (Robin), a 1:25 incentive variant by Jeff Spokes (Batman: The Brave and The Bold), and a 1:50 incentive variant by Eric Canete (Iron Man: Enter the Mandarin).  

Rounding out the lineup of four action-packed G.I. JOE miniseries that introduce the iconic characters of the G.I. Joe and Cobra teams to the Energon Universe, Scarlett joins Duke by Joshua Williamson (Superman, Dark Ride), Tom Reilly (The Thing) and Jordie Bellaire (W0rldtr33), Cobra Commander from writer Joshua Williamson, artist Andrea Milana (Impact Winter: Rook) and colorist Annalisa Leoni (Oblivion Song), and Destro by writer Dan Watters (Loki, Universal Monsters: Creature from the Black Lagoon Lives!), artist Andrei Bressan (Dark Ride, Birthright), and colorist Adriano Lucas (Dark Ride, Nightwing). These miniseries promise to set the stage for a fresh new take on G.I. Joe, Cobra, and the iconic characters that you only think you know! 

Scarlett is a series within the Energon Universe, a cornerstone of the historic collaboration between Hasbro and Skybound, with TRANSFORMERS and G.I. JOE comics finding a new home with the publisher to introduce a brand-new era for these landmark franchises in one shared universe. Energon Universe titles include the ongoing series Void Rivals by writer Robert Kirkman (Invincible, The Walking Dead), artist Lorenzo De Felici (Kroma), and colorist Patricio Delpeche (The Sandman Universe: Nightmare Country) and TRANSFORMERS by writer Daniel Warren Johnson (Extremity, Do a Powerbomb, DC’s Wonder Woman: Dead Earth), artist Jorge Corona (Middlewest), and colorist Mike Spicer (Stillwater, Murder Falcon), and the upcoming series G.I. JOE by writer Joshua Williamson (Superman, Dark Ride), artist Tom Reilly (The Thing), and colorist Jordie Bellaire (W0rldtr33), alongside the G.I.
