G.I. Joe, a Real American Hero #74

In "Alliance of Convenience," the escalating chaos of the Cobra Island Civil War draws the G.I. Joe Team into a volatile conflict they didn’t seek, thanks to Mindbender’s reckless maneuvers. With Destro launching an invasion and Hawk captured by Fred and the Dreadnoks on the Thunder machine at the airport, the Joes must navigate shifting alliances—especially with Minh now among them. Written by Larry Hama and illustrated by Ron Wagner, with inks by Randy Emberlin and colors by Bob Sharen, the issue’s cover by Ron Wagner and Bob McLeod captures the tension of a war where trust is as fragile as the island itself.
