G.I. Joe, a Real American Hero #13
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free"Last Plane from Rio Lindo" delivers a tense, tightly wound thriller in G.I. Joe, a Real American Hero #13 (1983), where the fate of Snake-Eyes, Kwinn, and Dr. Venom hangs in the balance after a brutal ambush traps them beneath the waves. Written by Larry Hama and illustrated with gritty precision by Mike Vosburg—inked by Jon D'Agostino and colored by Bob Sharen—the issue pulses with suspense as Stalker, Breaker, and Gung-Ho scramble to evacuate Rio Lindo, unaware their comrades are still alive and playing a deeper game. The cover by Mike Vosburg and Jon D'Agostino captures the urgency, while the story’s final Morse Code signal hints at a deception far larger than the surface reveals.

After the bunker was bombed by Baroness and Scar-Face, sinking it underwater (trapping Snake-Eyes, Kwinn, and Dr. Venom inside), Stalker, Breaker, Gung-Ho call the Joes for pickup from Rio Lindo as the country is under hostile takeover (thinking the three inside dead). The three Joes recover a briefcase left on purpose by the Commander as a ruse to trick the Joes while he continues with his real plan, and are rescued and take the false plans back to headquarters none the wiser of the real plan. The story ends with a familiar Morse Code tap coming from the bunker.
