Conrad S. Hauser

Conrad S. Hauser is the real name of Duke, the field commander and first sergeant of the G.I. Joe team. In IDW's continuity, he operates as a frontline soldier among elite operatives including Snake Eyes, Scarlett, and Helix.

Conrad S. Hauser steps onto the Modern Age IDW stage in G.I. Joe: Origins #23 (2011), brought to life by writer David Lapham and artist Werther Dell'Edera. With only a handful of appearances spread across G.I. Joe: Cobra, G.I. Joe: Snake Eyes, and G.I. Joe: Origins, this is a character who moves in serious company — sharing pages with icons like Duke, Snake Eyes, Scarlett, Shana O'Hara, and Helix. Brief but intriguing, Conrad S. Hauser is a collector's footnote worth tracking down for anyone building a complete picture of IDW's gritty, expansive G.I. Joe universe.
