Ok I got a question about Astro Vipers...

Did they ever appear in the comics? (I only have 2 or 3 issues and I wasn't into the comic books as a kid)

Thanks in advance for any input/help

If they did it would have probably been issues 146-148. Those isues featured the Joe Star Brigade.

They came out much earlier than that, and I seem to recall one panel or two of them around a satellite, but I am not sure if that was in a comic or not.

Thanks for the info John,

If it wasn't in the comic, where else could have been?

Hi Erick , I've just checked all 155 GI JOE Marvel comics and there isn't any sign of astro viper.

I don't know where you can find it

I wonder if they were created for a story arc that ended up being scrapped.

Or Hasbro came up with the Astro-Viper, but at the time of their release, Larry Hamma wasn't working on any story lines that involved actions in space and couldn't logically work them in.

That sort of thing happened a lot especially toward the end of the series.

I mean look at the figures that were released during the Battle Corps releases. You hardly saw any of those characters or costume designs in the comic with few exceptions.

What is meant by "White Pages" on ebay postings for Issue 21? and how does that seem to increase the value of this particular issue to such a hefty dollar amount?
Thanks for any help guys.
