G.I. Joe Declassified #2

In "Origin Declassified – Part 2," the G.I. Joe team’s pasts unfold in real time as each member recounts their path to joining the ranks, from Hawk and Steeler to Rock 'N Roll, Clutch, Breaker, Grand Slam, Flash, Grunt, and Short-Fuze—all amid the ongoing chaos in Sierra Gordo. Written by Larry Hama and illustrated by Pat Quinn, with colors by Rob Ruffolo and letters by Brian J. Crowley, the story unfolds with layered urgency as Shooter is sent into the field, her journey tied to Ace and Wild Bill—both still outside the team—before they fully become Joes. The cover, by Francis Manapul, captures the tension of the moment.
