G.I. Joe Comics Magazine #5

In "Three Strikes For Snake-Eyes," the G.I. Joes launch a high-stakes mission to recover vital missile guidance chips from a Cobra bunker, only to be ambushed and captured. With Kwinn standing in their way and the Baroness bombing the facility, only Stalker, Gung-Ho, and Breaker manage to escape—leaving Snake-Eyes, Kwinn, and Dr. Venom trapped inside. As the surviving Joes vow revenge for their lost comrade, the stakes rise in a mission defined by loyalty, loss, and the unyielding will to strike back.

In "Last Plane from Rio Lindo," with the bunker destroyed and their comrades believed lost, Stalker, Breaker, and Gung-Ho scramble to evacuate as Rio Lindo falls under hostile control. Trapped beneath the waves, Snake-Eyes, Kwinn, and Dr. Venom uncover a carefully planted briefcase—part of a larger deception—and must navigate the wreckage while a mysterious Morse code signal pulses from the depths.

In "Destro Attacks," the G.I. Joes launch a full-scale assault on Springfield, only to be driven back by Destro and his elite forces. While the Baroness and the Commander struggle to stabilize a Cobra agent with Venom's toxin—its effectiveness undone by a missing catalyst—Snake-eyes, Kwinn, and Venom barely escape a submerged prison, only to fall into new hands.
