G.I. Joe #51

Sgt. McTuff jumps at the chance to arrange a boxing match for the visiting general—and to finally go a round with Pvt. Dopey in the ring. But when McTuff sneaks in a practice session the day before the bout, he discovers something's amiss with the equipment, and the story takes a comedic turn as the two soldiers face off in ways neither quite expected.

Pvt. Joe Burch boards a train heading home to Elkton, haunted by a terrible memory from his time in Korea—a combat decision that cost three of his men their lives and left him wondering if they thought he'd abandoned them. When a fellow passenger, a kind older man, draws Joe's story out of him, the soldier finally confronts the guilt that's been driving him to run. Sometimes the answer you're looking for is waiting right where your journey ends.

When Ugly Otis daydreams at the zoo, his imagination whisks him back to 190 B.C. as Legionnaire Uglius Otivia in Hannibal's frozen Alpine forces—where a simple bag of peanuts catches the attention of military brass in desperate need of a way to move their stubborn elephants. As Otis bounces between time periods and unlikely encounters, his knack for being in the right place with the right snack sets history in motion. It's a wild comic romp that rewrites the classics one handful of nuts at a time.
