Comics Feature 52 (February 1987)
Pictured above is Comics Feature #52 released with a February 1987 cover date by Movieland Publishing, Inc. The magazine features a ten page article about the G.I.Joe comic, including interviews with Larry Hama and Herb Trimpe. The cover features Sgt. Slaughter, Roadblock and Snake Eyes with art by Martin Cannon. Of the ten pages in the article, two pages are devoted to the G.I.Joe poster in the middle. (All but the 4 center pages in the magazine are printed in black and white.) The magazine measures 8.5"w and 11"h.
The exact same interview with Hama and Trimpe appears in Comic Files Magazine Spotlight on G.I.Joe The 'Nam Merc Frontline Combat (1986). Both magazines were published by different (but apparently related) companies, but shared the same editor, Hal Schuster.
