Errors
  • * While Snake-Eyes is seen on the cover, he is not featured in the story. *When the Viper pistol-whips Cross-Country, his faceplate is colored like skin. *The Vipers are missing their gloves half the time. *The coloring is incredibly messed-up on page 11. Hawk is either wearing a jacket, or a long-sleeved shirt, or a short-sleeved shirt, or his sleeves are ripped. Not even the artists can tell Hawk and Duke apart! *On page 18, either we switch to the desert one panel sooner than the captions indicate, or there are suddenly an extra half-dozen people in the Mobile Battle Bunker. *The dossier in this issue incorrectly lists Storm Shadow's first appearance as G.I. Joe #23.
ItemsOfNote
  • * First Appearances: S.A.W.-Viper, Countdown, Mobile Battle Bunker * KIA: Doc, Crankcase, Heavy-Metal, Thunder, Breaker, Crazylegs, Quick-Kick *Cobra Commander and the Crimson Twins allude to some ongoing plain for Trucial Abysmia and neighboring Benzheen. *The letters page for this issue has a fan complaining about the lack of realism. Convenient timing! * The letters page also explains the Arashikage I-Ching hexagram. Its meaning: fire over water, which indicates the need for perseverance and caution. Or: "thus, the superior man takes thought of misfortune and arms himself against it in advance." ** They also mention that Prof. Onihashi's hexagram was different. Dossiers * The dossier in this issue features Storm Shadow.
