G.I. Joe: Special Missions #4

Two elite operatives burst into action on Sean Chen's dynamic cover — one rappelling on a line while firing a blazing submachine gun, the other lunging forward with dual pistols drawn, both set against a shadowy backdrop of armed silhouettes closing in from all sides. Chuck Dixon's writing teams with Paul Gulacy's interior art to bring the gritty, high-stakes world of G.I. Joe: Special Missions to life in this fourth issue from IDW's 2013 series. If covert ops, outnumbered heroes, and pulse-quickening tension are your thing, this one belongs in your collection.
