“Snake-Eyes: The Origin Part II”

"Snake-Eyes: The Origin Part II" delivers a gripping continuation of the iconic G.I. Joe backstories, diving into the tragic events that left Snake-Eyes scarred and silent. Written by Larry Hama and illustrated by Frank Springer, with inks by Andy Mushynsky and colors by George Roussos, the issue builds tension as Storm Shadow confronts his sword brother, accusing him of murdering their uncle—only to reveal the murder was staged with one of his own arrows. Meanwhile, the Joes press on in the Everglades, facing new threats as Zartan brings the Dreadnoks into the fray. Michael Golden’s striking cover captures the intensity of the moment, making this 1984 Marvel classic a must-read for fans of the series.
