G.I. Joe #23
In G.I. Joe #23 (2010), the team splits up on a high-stakes mission as Helix and Snake Eyes prove their worth in the field. With Hawk outlining a plan to seize Cobra technology, teams are deployed to key targets—Stalker, Leatherneck, and Recondo’s squad intercepting a coup attempt on the Baranigue president, while others face unexpected complications. As tensions rise between the Baroness and Destro, and Orizama and Copperback grow concerned over a missing agent, Storm Shadow’s actions in Rome take a deadly turn. Written by Chuck Dixon and illustrated by Robert Atkins—with inks by Clayton Brown, colors by Andrew Crossley, and letters by Shawn Lee—this issue delivers tight pacing and sharp character moments, all anchored by Atkins’ dynamic cover art.
