Tales of G.I. Joe #12

In "Three Strikes for Snake-Eyes," the G.I. Joe team races against time to recover a stolen cache of missile guidance chips, only to be ambushed and captured by Cobra. With Stalker, Gung-Ho, and Breaker barely escaping, Snake-Eyes, Kwinn, and Dr. Venom are left behind as the Baroness detonates the bunker—leaving their fate uncertain. Written by Larry Hama and illustrated by Mike Vosberg, with inks by Jon D'Agostino and colors by Glynis Wein, this 1988 issue delivers high-stakes tension and the unmistakable edge of the Joe universe. The cover, by Mike Vosburg and Jack Abel, captures the moment of impending disaster with striking precision.
