A long time ago I promised to some day update the Finnish comic section with AF prologue to Generation 2 comic.

I'd now need help with first names of some pencilers and inkers, as well as release times for issues. Anyone know of a good listing of US G.I.Joe issues?

First draft, so feedback, spotted errors etc appreciated.

Action Force G.I.Joe

"Action Force G.I.Joe" was a comic published by Semic and it printed Marvel US "G.I.Joe" and "G.I.Joe Special Missions" material. In G.I.Joe US issues 138-142 Transformers were reintroduced after the cancellation of original Transformers comic and is usually referred as prologue to "Transformers Generation 2" comic.

At the time both newer and older, in Finland unpublished material, was printed in the same issue.

On the letter pages editors mentioned of plans to publish also "Transformers Generation 2" in Finland, but for some reason it never happened. Which is a pity, because the series was in many ways a refreshing new take on the property. Not for everyone's taste naturally. Titan Books has released all the 12 issues in two collections.

Is the partial updating possibilities fro me and some others(?) still in consideration? I'd like to update the comic info (Semic, Egmont), and maybe put Finnish version available as well.

Yes, it is. At the moment it is the next thing on my agenda (but of course these things change depending on how I feel). Now that we've moved to a bigger place, it gives me plenty of room to experiment, and I'm seriously considering installing a portal, like PHP-nuke or something similar. With those I assume I can give every staff member access to a certain area of the site, to add and edit pages of your own.

Our web hotel has six portals directly available for easy installation, and this spring I plan to investigate those six to see which one appears to suit my/our purposes the best - I want one that's easy to maintain without knowledge of HTML coding, but is also versatile and has lots of extra components, and which preferably allows me to adapt and insert code of my own. Take the databases for example - I want to be sure that I can add new sections/pages to the portal that uses the databases in a way that I want.
