G.I. Jokes

G.I. Jokes is Mark Pingitore’s G.I. Joe parody line, a fan-made Garbage Pail Kids riff that mixes the two worlds into a pair of sticker releases.

The first G.I. Jokes set arrived in February 2017, and a second series followed in April 2018. By the time the follow-up came out, collectors had another round of the same red, white and blue treatment, with nine new G.I. Joe characters presented in the set’s dog-tag style die-cut. To date, the series has two releases. Beyond the stickers, Mark also made related goodies based on the same characters, so there is a little more to look at than the two core sets.
