Buzzer

Dick Blinken-Smythe is a British former academic turned mercenary who abandoned respectability for the brutal world of biker gangs, eventually joining the Dreadnoks—Cobra's savage, chainsaw-wielding muscle. He brings demolitions expertise and vicious close-quarters savagery to the crew.

Few corners of Bronze Age Marvel are as gloriously chaotic as the world Buzzer crashed into with G.I. Joe, a Real American Hero #25 in 1984, courtesy of the legendary Larry Hama and Frank Springer. Over four decades of continuous publication — stretching all the way to 2026 — this figure has proven remarkably durable, racking up 62 catalogued appearances across G.I. Joe, a Real American Hero, G.I. Joe, and even the wild crossover territory of G.I. Joe and the Transformers. Five of those appearances carry key-issue status, a mark of genuine collector significance that underscores just how much weight Buzzer carries in the mythology. Running alongside the likes of Zartan, Torch, and Ripper, Buzzer keeps genuinely dangerous company — and that's exactly what makes following their pages such a thrill for any serious fan of the franchise.
