G.I. Joe Season 2 #8
In G.I. Joe Season 2 #8 (2011), Hawk and his team evaluate the aftermath of a major incident aboard the Tuna, while cleanup efforts continue in Springfield. Back in Washington D.C., a high-stakes transfer of the Baroness to Fort Baxter goes awry when she escapes—only for Krake to recapture her. Meanwhile, the Cobra Council selects Major Bludd as their new Commander, but a shocking twist reveals Satori to be Zartan, leading to a sudden change in leadership as Krake is named the new commander instead. Destro, trapped within his mechanical shell, makes a desperate attempt to break free—though it’s unclear if he succeeds. Written by Chuck Dixon and illustrated by Will Rosado, with colors by Romulo Fajardo Jr. and letters by Shawn Lee, the issue’s cover by Tom Feister captures the tension with a striking, dynamic scene.
