- Title: G.I. JOE: Snake Eyes #6
- Comic Vine: link
- Writer: Chuck Dixon
- Artist: Casey Maloney
With the world on the edge of a unstoppable pandemic Snake Eyes and the infected Duke travel to Zimbabwe to track down Dr. Rodrigo Vargas, the Cobra scientist responsible for the Madness Bug, in hopes that he’s also created a cure.
Writer Chuck Dixon gives us another issue of Snake Eyes being a bad-ass (which Casey Maloney’s art shows off oh so well), and, really, what more do you want? We also see Duke’s out-of-the-box thinking to get Vargas to relinquish the location of his cure.
After a bit of a transition issue last month things start to pick up again with the hunt for Vargas and the cure (even if I do still miss Agent Helix and Snake’s team from the last story arc). Now we just have to wait and see if Snake Eyes can get his hands on the antidote before everyone infected, including Duke, succumbs to the madness. Worth a look.
