Did they ever print all 5 Hearts and Minds Barnes and Noble Covers? I've only ever seen issues 1 and 2 on ebay. Looking for the rest.

And what about Cobra II #1 2nd printing? I've never seen this anywhere and would love to get a hold of one!

well it took a while but I found one answer:

here is what Andy Schmidt (editor in chief) said over at IDW:

Phil Kost wrote:
Gonna come back and revisit the Barnes and Noble exclusives. I am assuming at this point #4 and 5 are not coming out.


They only got the first three issues, I think. Maybe just the first two. I think once they found out we were doing a hardcover, they lost interest in the single issues.

and a little later this was asked:
Definately 3. Did 4 & 5 get printed and floating out there somewhere (maybe a proof of two someone could purchase???? - lol)


They were never printed, Phil.

the only thing I could find on Cobra 2 2nd print is that is was supposed to be coming out Feb 10 2010 according to Phil Kost over on Joereloaded.
I may even have this cover come to think of it, or I passed on it back then I cant remember for certain it just looks familiar. will do some digging through comic boxes over the weekend.

I own the Hearts and Minds B&K #1-3 and the Cobra II #1 2nd print, so I know those exist. As for #4 & 5, I have been looking but have never seen 'em

You guys are simply the best. Thanks, skinny, for your detective work, and thanks to Mr Chaw for the confirmation. Now if I can only find that Cobra 2nd print, I can get on with my life. for now.

Hey Mr Chaw, any chance you may want to part with the Cobra II #1 2nd print or your Hearts and Minds B&N #1? $, or trade if there's any GI Joe you may be looking for.
