Following up the events of “High Stakes” where the Joes infiltrated the new casino on Cobra Island, IDW’s final arc of the G.I.

G.I. JOE: The Movie

  • Title: G.I. JOE: The Movie

Wayback Wednesday takes us back to 1987 and the animated feature birthed from the G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero cartoon which is nearly as incomprehensible today as it was 35 years ago. Originally intended for a theatrical release, the movie instead went straight-to-video. It was also later split into separate episodes fitting the formula of several other multi-episode arcs of G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero.

G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero #294

“High Stakes” continues at the not-so-undercover Joes struggle to stay alive on Cobra Island. More than half the issue is set aside for Helix and Dawn‘s fights against the evil Revanche B.A.T.S. disguised as waitresses before doing a bit of snooping underneath the casino and finding many, many more.

G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero – Saturday Morning Adventures #4

The four-issue mini-series concludes with the genie forcing G.I. JOE and Cobra into battle where no one can escape until at least one side is wiped out. There’s plenty of action to close things out, but the real story comes when Destro clues in the Joes on how to stop the genie leading to Shipwreck and Polly saving the day (and only Shipwreck remembering the crazy events of the past few days).

G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero #293

G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero #293 continues the current storylines with several of the Joes sneaking into the Cobra Casino on Cobra Island as high rollers. And… that’s about it. Despite being front and center on the cover, we don’t get any movement on a new Serpentor. And, despite Dr. Mindbender spilling his plans about a clone of Snake Eyes (whose various versions feature prominently on one of the comic’s variant covers) under Cobra’s control within in earshot of a Joe, there’s no new movement there either.
