The armored team led by Flint has been captured by Faoud, a resistance leader who intends to use them to attack Cobra. The G.I. Joe ninja team is on a covert intelligence gathering mission. Stalker leads a recon mission with a rookie Joe called Cool Breeze on his team.


Detailed summary

Snake Eyes, Storm Shadow, Scarlett, and Jinx who have gathered information on the placement of Cobra equipment and personnel. Snake Eyes is about to compromise the mission by targeting the SAW viper, but Scarlett convinces him to wait and prioritize the mission.

The team is also being followed by Night Creepers, but Cool Breeze suggests using a jammer to block their transmissions, which allows the team to eliminate them quickly.

Meanwhile, Flint meets with the leader of the resistance, Faoud, who reveals his plan to attack targets in the city of Benzheen. The ninja team spots Faoud's men and eliminates one unit, but there are many more. When a helicopter approaches, Storm Shadow orders the team to throw their weapons off the roof, and the recon team leaves a clear trail to show their presence. They are about to start jamming again when the missing armor team rolls by, which makes Stalker realize something is amiss.

Faoud orders the Joes to fire on the lit up targets, but Stalker and his team arrive and stop Faoud's men, capturing Faoud in the process. Cool Breeze offers himself as a diversion and grabs the jammer to make amends for his earlier mistake. He runs off towards the approaching Cobra helicopter and starts the jammer.

The ninja team is on board, and they are successful in their mission. However, Faoud slips his pistol off Stalker's belt and shoots Cool Breeze. Snake Eyes shoots Faoud in turn, but it's too late for Cool Breeze.

In the end, the Joes hold an empty boot ceremony for Cool Breeze, calling him a real Joe for what he did. The ninja team gets some payback by tossing down the SAW viper's machine gun.

Other Notes

Errors

  • Flint and Lady Jaye constantly switch positions while riding in the Hammer, sometimes even between panels on the same page.

Items of note

  • Deaths: Cool Breeze, Faoud
  • It seems like the S.A.W.-Viper was killed, since Snake-Eyes has his gun, but he'll be seen again. Either the ninjas should have made sure the job was finished, or they wanted him to live with whatever permanent pain they had given him.

Real-world references

  • Cobra ties live hostages to valuable targets, something Iraq reportedly did during the first Gulf War.
