G.I. Joe Special Missions #3

The cover by Mike Zeck and Joe Rubinstein drops you right into the chaos: a blue truck barrels forward under heavy fire, with helmeted G.I. Joe soldiers shooting from the cab and the roof while red-clad enemies in the foreground return fire with rockets and automatic weapons. It's a kinetic, bullets-and-smoke composition that captures exactly the kind of high-stakes covert action this spin-off series was built around. Inside, Larry Hama scripts "Burn-Out" with art from Herb Trimpe — a solid 1987 package for fans who wanted their Joe action grounded and intense.
