G.I. Joe #6

In "Reckonings Part 1," Cobra Commander returns with a vengeance, reclaiming his empire with the aid of Storm Shadow and a new force of Neo-Vipers, while the G.I. Joes struggle to adjust to a world that feels both familiar and unrecognizable. Written and drawn by Josh Blaylock, with additional art by Steve Kurth and inks by John Larter, Barb Schulz, and Cory Hamscher, this 2002 Image Comics issue sets a tense, grounded tone as old alliances fracture and new threats emerge. Mike Zeck’s striking cover captures the moment’s gravity, a visual anchor for a story where loyalty is tested and the line between past and present blurs.
