In "To Fail Is to Conquer...To Succeed Is to Die!", the G.I. Joes are dropped into the rugged terrain of Afghanistan on a high-stakes mission to recover advanced tech from a downed Russian spycraft—only to find themselves outmaneuvered by the ruthless October Guard and caught in the crossfire of Cobra’s own ambitions. Written by Larry Hama and Herb Trimpe, with art by Trimpe and inks by Jack Abel, this 1987 Marvel issue delivers a tense, grounded clash of warring factions, all vying for the same prize. The cover by Herb Trimpe and Chic Stone captures the moment’s intensity, a 1.50 USD (1.75 CAD) snapshot of Cold War espionage at its most dangerous.
