Picking up where the classic comic series left off, longtime fans can continue following the adventures of their favorite characters from the legendary toy line of the 1980s. As Cobra continues its relentless onslaught on a global scale, G.I. Joe is there to meet them in kind. It's tyranny versus freedom--heroes and villains will rise and fall, bullets will fly, blood will spill, and who and what remains when the smoke clears is anyone's guess! A hostile takeover turns into a desperate fight for survival when Destro and Baroness are caught in a deadly ambush by Revanche Robotic's Alpha 001 Prime, who has declared war on M.A.R.S. and the Arashikage Clan! Collects issues #261-265.

You think you’ve seen it all, but these stories reveal never-before-told adventures of your favorite heroes and villains. Plus, join the JOEs on a different type of adventure, a murder-mystery! Take a look behind some of the most important moments in G.I. JOE history through the eyes of some of your favorite characters and join brand-new JOEs Sherlock, Black Hat, Multo, Caseload, and Bottom Line in all-new adventures!

Then, in the aftermath of the chaotic events of “Snake Hunt,” the JOEs are in a tough spot with the brass in Washington, D.C. Called to testify before a confidential sub-committee intent on investigating the off-the-books mission, a small group of JOEs find themselves embroiled in an entirely different kind of investigation… the murder/mystery kind, in “Murder by Assassination!” Collects G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero issues #276-285 by Living Legend Larry Hama and artists Netho Diaz, Brian Shearer, Dan Schoening, Alex Sanchez, Ron Joseph, and Andrew Griffith.
