First Netho Diaz art. Dawn of the Arashikage starts.
Senior Advisor Harada appears at the scene of the battle which happened off-panel between issues. Lots of dead Red Ninjas, a handful of Arashikage Clan as well. Hopefully none of the recently-named new Arashikage but we probably won't ever know.
Storylines like this with a large extended Arashikage Clan family would be perfect for getting into the history of the underdeveloped Joes from Ninja Force.
Harada gives a play-by-play narration of the battle similar to Willem Dafoe's Paul Smecker in Boondock Saints. His narration leads us easily to believe that he is speaking more from personal prior associations than from pure observation.
One member of the Arashikage is highlighted here. A "traveling mendicant ninja" who is master of the Iron Palm. He was seen in Trieste. Maybe the young man who was with Storm Shadow in his first appearance of the modern half of ARAH. Then he is named, Genji.
Senior Advisor Harada is attacked by a wounded Red Ninja and defends himself. He is a member of the Arashikage. Does anyone have an extended family tree of them with all the new additions since Marvel?
Dawn, Genji, and Obake recover nearby. We are treated to a Vietnam flashback moments after Ramon, Dickie, and Wade are shot down. We learn (for what I believe is the first time) that Snake-Eyes was being called by that name as early as his LRRP days, at least by Tommy. Stalker saves Snake-Eyes’ life in this memory.
In the letters page, a reader repeats Dawn's initial age of "15." At the end of this story arc, Larry quietly ages her up to 17 off-panel. Another reader asks if the Joes have their own Chaplain.
