Classic G.I. Joe TPB #13
"Triptych" delivers a tense, character-driven chapter in the G.I. Joe saga, spotlighting Hawk and Lady Jaye as they navigate a volatile escape from Borovia’s train station amid a sudden riot. Written by Larry Hama and illustrated by Andrew Wildman, with inks by Stephen Baskerville and colors by Bob Sharen, the story unfolds with sharp pacing and emotional weight, as mistaken identity leads to violence and unexpected allies emerge. The cover by JonBoy Meyers captures the moment’s urgency, while the narrative quietly sets up larger threats—Firefly’s growing schemes and the looming shadow of the Pit III—without revealing how the Joes will respond.

Hawk and Lady Jaye are arranging transportation to get the Joes and themselves out of Borovia at a train station when a riot ensues. Hawk is accidentally mistaken for the former regime's secret police (currently in power) and is shot by rebels, and the White Clown and Magda help them to escape from the secret police. Meanwhile, as Firefly brainwashes the ninjas he captured, he learns the Pit III's location and attempts to sell it to the Commander, plotting global conquest inside the Cobra Consulate in New york, with his eye towards Eastern Europe and the former U.S.S.R. territories this time.
