In "Fair Trade," the G.I. Joe team is split and stranded in the jungles of Sierra Gordo, facing relentless pursuit by N.A.B.M.-controlled forces.

Written by Larry Hama and illustrated by Ron Wagner, with inks by Randy Emberlin and colors by Bob Sharen, this tense chapter unfolds under the shadow of betrayal and uneasy alliances. The cover by Ron Wagner and Bob McLeod captures the peril and isolation of the mission.

Two teams of Joes are trapped in Sierra Gordo and have to try and hoof it out of the country with hostile troops looking for them under the N.A.B.M.'s control.
