G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero #258

In "The Cobra's Venom Part 3," the Joes face a final, desperate stand against the machine housing Dr. Venom’s mind, pushing their tactics to the limit as Cobra aircraft close in. Though the robot proves tough to destroy, a well-placed explosion brings it down—just as the team braces for the aftermath. Written by Larry Hama and illustrated by Ron Joseph, with colors by James Brown and letters by Neil Uyetake, this high-stakes issue delivers tense action and emotional weight, culminating in a harrowing evacuation led by Duke. The cover by Ron Joseph captures the intensity of the moment in bold, dynamic detail.
