Action Force #6/1988

In "Tordenmaskinen," Zandar and Zarana execute a daring prison break, freeing their brother Zartan from The Pit by impersonating Lady Jaye and an interrogation specialist, throwing the Joes into disarray. As the siblings vanish into the shadows, General Hawk races against time to reach a crucial meeting at the Pentagon, where the fallout from last issue’s Springfield incident could reshape the battlefield.

In "Rask avgjørelse," Serpentor returns to Cobra Island hailed as a hero, but the Commander sees a threat in his rising power and sends Zartan and the team to impersonate the Joes in a bid to eliminate him—only for the plan to go awry. Meanwhile, in the Pit, Storm Shadow confronts his past, revealing how he survived the Baroness’s fatal shots and asking for Snake-Eyes’s forgiveness, which is granted with a quiet gesture. As Hawk returns to deliver news of the team’s suspension and the Pit’s closure, Cobra begins preparing a full-scale attack on the Joes’ headquarters.
