Fans of the "Real American Hero" should be in for a Roadblock-sized treat tomorrow night, as "G.I. Joe: Resolute" debuts on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim. Written by legendary comics writer Warren Ellis ("Transmetropolitan," "Planetary"), the adult-themed series of five-minute animated shorts will run for 11 episodes both on the Network and online, with a ten-minute finale episode set to air April 25.

"In a very exciting year for the G.I. JOE brand, we’re thrilled to be able to bring the 'G.I. Joe: Resolute' animated series to the adult G.I. Joe fan," wrote Michael Verrecchia, Director of G.I. Joe Entertainment Marketing, in press release issued today. "Adult Swim is the perfect broadcast platform to deliver the series, which features a more sophisticated animation style and story than prior animation."

Furthermore, Ellis has promised to add links on his website, WarrenEllis.com, as they are made available.
