I already said I always like the first parts more, but this is a good continuation for last issue.
Yeah, the cover is an all-time great! Who needs 90s holo-nonsense when you can roll like this?
Destro desperately trying to be a badass in this one. Dude's trying to kill the Joes for real again! Whatever happened to this guy? He also talks big about evening the score with CC, but ends up wimping out big time when he gets back.

Gotta be him. Yes, there's a Double Clutch in there, and the third guy sure looks like Grunt 'N Roll. Man, these guys are scoring more appearances than Grand Slam!
Doc-Fuze doesn't recognize Deep-Six because he's not wearing his sardine can.
Springer seriously messes up the generic Joes here. They do have the real Doc still on board the Dragonfly. Or is that a smudge of rust on the windshield?

Hama sure must have loved the concept. Siegies brought in well before the toys were out. And it shows. Springer never did get them right, did he?
Smith didn't like his name or family, so he changed both for next issue. What would you guys have thought in 1984 if you knew the guy in the backseat becomes a Snake-Eyes? Comics.

But Hawk had said in Joe training that's the best way to take out Destro.

It was never broken. The Joes were just being drama queens about it, while Firefly is being a pro. He's actually pretty effective in this issue. He doesn't make a complete hash of things, and has a decent plan that almost blows up the entire 84 Joe line so far. Man, that would've been awkward for Hasbro.

LOL at Tripwire's scared face. LOL at Wild Bill scaring Duke, too.
"We can finish off the Whale whenever we want to!" famous last words a la Bill. Didn't take invisible wrist rockets into account.
Love the crash scene. Who was going to make who into a soldier again, Duke?

Naw, couldn't be. Seriously, Tripwire is like friggin' Orko now. Cutter hid the visor, Tripwire's source of power. Dude freezes like a complete nancy when being given a simple order, and it only gets worse from there. You know you suck when even the coastie who whined his way into Joe outbadasses you. Even when I first read this issue as a kid I wondered why Hama hated TW. Was it the lame dossier? Oh wait, that was Hama, too.
Tripwire almost gets his hero moment, though, when he trips on the bomb.. I mean makes a noble sacrifice. Just let him sacrifice himself, guys. It's better for everyone.

So that's what happened. The explosion killed Doc-Fuze, Grunt 'N Roll and a Clutch. They're never seen again. Boy was it awkward when Roadblock found out after making that speech.

But not forever! Thank you, IDW run!
