I understand AE 20 is in stores today, haven't had a chance to get it but is it any good?

Best written issue of the series so far! Character development all around, answers given, the return of a little used character, even a little action sprinkled in!
I never thought I'd like an appearance by Crystal Ball, but he was used effectively here, and even Colton admitted he underestimated him in the profile. But, he's in custody now, the Joes have done a great job of that lately.
I'm going to have a tough time with Cover Girl and Shipwreck together, I think all of us have attached Cover Girl to a different Joe at some point in our heads (and right now Beach Head is gently sobbing in my head) but I'll get over it. Go Shipwreck!
Mike even got a dig on all the 'girls' on the messageboards complaining about Shipwreck's hair!
I can't even read my copy. It looks like it was drawn by a Jr High student. I don't mean to bash DD when I say that. I like the people at DD. I just think the art has become way substandard.

You can’t stop the signal
Notice how I said best written issue!
At least read the poker scene, that part is drawn by Seeley!
I'll second that. I pretty much just ignore the pictures and make up my own in my head. I do really like the stories though, so I still buy it.Originally Posted by dockingbay97

First off I gotta say I like the comics, that said though
I gotta agree the art on this ish was horrible compareed to past issues to say the least, and frankly I was very disappointed in this whole storyline, I did not like the dips into the Joes personal lives nor the "shocker" involving two joes, I thought the whole Rey as Serpentor..... well actually serpentor 13 was ridiculous, and I am glad we have an "end " to this whole thing, now maybe we can get back to issues like, the old Marvel run or at least like the Special Missions Antartica.
More action and less drama ( soap opera drama at that)
So, has everyone had a chance to read it yet? I liked it. I enjoyed the format and that it looked at everyone for a few pages. How cool was that with Covergirl and Ship????? I loved it!!!
I also loved the fact that Rey fought out of his "serpentor" identity. I enjoyed the story behind it and how it tied to Marvel. I love Rey and would hate to see him destroyed.
Looking forward to the future issues.
I also thought that was the most enjoyable use of Crystal Ball yet.
