Description

Arguably the most recognizable G.I. Joe cover ever produced! Marvel's comic adaptation of the popular Hasbro toy property was a huge success, leading to the creation of the animated TV show and spawning a pop culture phenomenon. One of the most popular characters was Snake-Eyes, a mysterious, costumed commando with a martial arts background and curious connection to Cobra operative Storm Shadow. The piece offered here was Snake-Eyes' first solo cover, from an issue that delves into the characters origins, driving fans into a frenzy. The character's popularity thrives to this day, with appearances in the comics and G.I. Joe movies, including his own solo feature released in 2021. The interior story was the famous "silent issue" with no word balloons, one most any comic reader from back then will remember.
