So in the comic which Joes are dead?
*SPOILERS IF YOU HAVEN'T READ THE JOE SERIES*---list update to show answers COBRA THANKS ZEROG G.I. Joe * Shooter-A member of the GI Joe team so secret that not even the other members of GI Joe knew about her (the only exceptions being General Flagg and Sparks), Shooter was killed during the first meeting between GI Joe and Cobra, codenamed 'Operation: Lady Doomsday' when she was forced to attack a group of Cobra troops with only her knife. The Cobra fortress in which this action took place was destroyed moments later. The other Joes never knew of her mission or sacrifice, even though they were all in attendance at her funeral. Shooter was initially an in-joke, being named after Jim Shooter, an editor at Marvel. The name is listed with the others on a screen, but the face is obscured by the hand of another character in GI Joe #1. There has never been a Shooter action figure, and she only appeared in the three issues of GI Joe: Declassified, published by Devil's Due comics, and written by original GI Joe scribe, Larry Hama. * Gen. Flagg – At the time of his death General Flagg was a non-toy character and was the original G.I. Joe commander in the comic series. He was killed by Major Bludd during Cobra’s first attack on the Joe’s headquarters, the Pit in Marvel #19. Although a General Flagg figure was released in the early 90s, his file card listed him as the son of General Flagg. The General Flagg of the comics was finally released with the introduction of the 3 figure comic packs, which included a reprinted related comic in which the characters were involved. * Mangler – Possibly, the first "Greenshirt" in the comics, he wore nothing more than a simple fatigue. He was on probationary status and therefore was not yet a Joe. He was killed during a secret raid in the fictional country of Trucial Abysmia in Marvel SM#13. * Doc, Crankcase, Heavymetal, Thunder – Captured by Cobra; by Xamot and Tomax's forces during another mission in Trucial Abysmia. Executed, due to an unfortunate misunderstanding of Cobra Commander's orders, by a blood-thirsty S.A.W. Viper (Robert "Overkill" Skelton), in Marvel #109. (The other Cobra soldiers weren't so eager to do the job). * Breaker, Crazylegs, Quick Kick – Captured with Doc and the rest. Escaped from the S.A.W. Viper by virtue of a hidden knife. Later killed in a vehicle explosion while escaping from Cobra in Trucial Abysmia in Marvel #109. * Cool Breeze – a non-toy Joe killed-in-action by a prisoner during a reconnaissance mission in the fictional country Emirate of Benzheen in Marvel #112. His killer was then shot by Snake-Eyes. It's strongly believed that the character was inspired by Will Smith's "Fresh Prince of Bel-Air". Many readers were initially fooled to thinking he was really a new toy-based character because of his unique design. * Avalanche, Blaster, Blocker, Dee-Jay, Knockdown, Maverick – All but one member of the Battleforce 2000 were killed by Cobra artillery inside an oil processing facility. This after Cobra Commander went back on a peace treaty in Marvel #113. Dodger was the only team member to survive. * Sneak-Peek – Killed-in-action by Cobra agents in a reconnaissance mission while another major battle is taking place in Benzheen in Marvel #113. He gave his life to protect an innocent civilian. * Sneak Peek (II) – An FBI agent greenshirt, killed early in the Devil's Due series (non-toy) when Dr. Mindbender's experimental upgraded B.A.T. shot him through the head. * Daemon - killed by Serpentor in Devil's Due #22 (non-toy) when the Coil leader snapped his neck. * Flash, Mainframe – Killed-in-action during the second invasion of Cobra Island in DD #25 in an explosion. * Chuckles - Killed by Coil agent, Overlord during the second invasion of Cobra Island in DD #25. This remains in question, as Chuckles was originally scripted to fake his death against Overlord while Brandon Jerwa was writing the comic, but when Jerwa was replaced by Joe Casey, the situation was never resolved. * Skidmark – Probably killed-in-action during the second invasion of Cobra Island in G.I. Joe #25 (Devil's Due series). This remains in question, as he is listed as an available reservist in the recent Data Desk Handbook, published by Devil's Due. * Action Man / Tracker - Assassinated by a Red Shadow agent, it remains to be questioned since the fact that even his assassin calls him by both names. It is commonly believed that the deceased was the very first Action Man, because the assassination happens on a beach while the character is walking with a surfboard. Tracker was cross-country expert. Despite the fact that he was a Navy S.E.A.L. his dossier NEVER shows any interest or background on watersports and in later depictions of the team's roster at the DD's Data Desk Handbook, his name wasn't shown as casualty at all. * Hardball, Rampart - Killed by Red Shadow agents in DD #38. * Glenda - Killed by Red Shadow agents in issue #38 of the Devil's Due series. Although she never had a US-sold figure, she was one of the better-known foreign figures. * Scanner - Non-figure G.I. Joe agent who died saving (and subsequently killing Overlord) Snake-Eyes, Scarlett and Duke in DD #41. * Lady Jaye - Killed by Dela Eden of the Red Shadows in DD #42. Confirmed dead in DD #43. First major character killed. * Timber - Died of natural causes and sired a litter of pups in DD Frontline #4. * JUNKYARD -replaced by identical relative named JUNKYARD II MERCER-???? COBRA * Dr. Venom - Non-toy evil scientist killed by Kwinn in G.I. Joe #19. * Scarface - Killed when he was trapped in the G.I. Joe pre-fab fortress when it was destroyed in G.I. Joe #19. * Serpentor - Believed killed by Zartan during the Cobra Civil War in G.I. Joe #76 (Marvel series). Reanimated Serpentor is then critically injured by Cobra Commander in G.I. Joe #25 (Devil's Due series). He is later shown to be alive in a stasis tank which is then destroyed by the Red Shadow, Mars Harring. He is subsequently believed, but not proven to be, dead. * Croc Master I – Trapped in a landlocked freighter under a volcano in Cobra Island in G.I. Joe #98 and later died of food poisoning. * Fred VII – Impersonated Cobra Commander in a battle armor suit. He was trapped by the original Cobra Commander in a landlocked freighter under a volcano in Cobra Island in G.I. Joe #98 and later died of food poisoning. * Raptor – Trapped in a landlocked freighter under a volcano in Cobra Island in G.I. Joe #98 and later died of food poisoning. * Voltar – Trapped in a landlocked freighter under a volcano in Cobra Island in G.I. Joe #98 and later died of food poisoning. * Cobra-La - Cobra-La never appeared in the comic books' regular continuity, but just like Crystal Ball, Impel's G.I. Joe trading cards includes all of Cobra in the In Memoriam subset. The cards simply state they died in an earthquake in the Himalayas. * Dr. Mindbender - Trapped in a landlocked freighter under a volcano in Cobra Island in G.I. Joe #98 and later died of food poisoning. He was later revived in G.I. Joe #140 by Cobra Commander as a clone with most, if not all, of the memories of the original. * Dr. Mindbender's clone - Shot and murdered by Cobra Commander in issue #41 of the Devil's Due series. * Darklon - In G.I. Joe #146, he was killed by a missile strike on his castle in Darklonia which Cobra later invades. * Big Boa - Killed by Red Shadow agents in issue #38 of the Devil's Due series. * Asa Negra - Another Cobra agent killed by the Red Shadows in issue #38 of the Devil's Due series. He is also a foreign-marketed figure. * Overlord - Coil general who died in an explosion (detonated by Scanner) at a remote base while attempting to murder Duke, Snake-Eyes and Scarlett in Devil's Due Publishing's G.I. Joe #41. * Croc Master II - Allegedly killed by Baroness in G.I. Joe America's Elite #21. * Wraith - Allegedly killed by Baroness in G.I. Joe America's Elite #22. * Zartan - Trapped in a landlocked freighter under a volcano in Cobra Island in G.I. Joe #98 and later died of food poisoning. Rip It-?????? Headman-????? Overkill-??? Cesspool-???? Billy-???? Sky Creeper-??? MONKEYWRENCH-??? Oktober Guard * Colonel Brekhov - Killed in Sierra Gordo in G.I. Joe Special Missions #26. * Horror Show - Killed in Sierra Gordo in G.I. Joe Special Missions #26. * Shrage - Killed in Sierra Gordo in G.I. Joe Special Missions #26. * Stormavik - Killed in Sierra Gordo in G.I. Joe Special Missions #26. * Lieutenant Gorky - Shot by Destro in G.I. Joe #19 of the Devil's Due series.

That was dissapointing to me. I was rereading the Joes (picked up the paperback version)and Deep Six buys it almost right away after he is introduced. Cobra was attacking and he jumped behind a mounted gun and fended them off. He was badly wounded and they tried to bandage him up and get him back to Doc, but by that time it was too late.

No, I've got that issue, he is manning the gun on the WHALE and gets wounded (that's where Roadblock holds the gun up on his back to elevate it while D6 shoots it at Destro in a Rattler). Again D6 IS wounded in the incident, but does NOT get killed then. I think old D6 is still alive and well as if the end of the DDP run. I COULD be wrong though , but I KNOW I am right about the Marvel issue you describe. .
