Got this in Barns and Noble. It's a collection of short stories set in a modern, gritty GI Joe universe. When I say gritty, I mean it. The authors wrote these with the intention of being a bit more mature, oriented toward GI Joe kids that are now in college I think.

Picked that up when it first came out. Read it while I was on vacation in May 2011.

Love it. My favorite story is the one about Skidmark, it's a great take on the character.

Is it a novel or graphic novel?

Novel. Several short stories.

Basically if you read any of the Star Wars "Tales of the Mos Eisley Cantina" or other Tales paperbacks, it's like that.
