My limited knowledge of GI Joe is based on the cartoons from the 80s and the recent movies. When and how did the zombies get into this line,?

They were introduced in 2011 in a story arc about Compound Z... here's from their file card...
ZOMBIE-VIPERS are COBRA infantry troopers who have been given a mysterious chemical substance, Compound Z, that has turned them into drones. Wiped of all thought, they follow orders mindlessly and cannot be reasoned with or sidetracked. They have retained skill at combat; in fact, their desire to fight has been increased, making them more dangerous than before. In other words, they are deadly zombie warriors. A few other accessories around that time came with Compound Z and the Club continued the story with their 2014 set.

Shouldnt they be called Zombie Troopers since they were originally Cobra trooper infantry? If they were alley vipers or some other viper troopers that got the compound z then It would make sense to call them zombie vipers. Last edited by Rangeviper88; 10-22-2016 at 01:13 AM.. |

I personally loved this arc and wish they had made more, or at least made them easier to get.
For me I like to think the story is going like this: World is in chaos because of Zombie outbreak. Gi joe is just left with a few survivors (Zombie convention set figures) and has to call in the steel brigade reservists. Mean while cobra industries is taking over as a police state with their shock troopers and Hazard Vipers lead by Cesspool. (Cobra commander would be a zombie if they had released that figure they showed awhile back). Bottom line survivors/steel brigade vs Cobra industries vs Zombies

Those are still not easy to get. At least not yet. Hopefully things will be better when november rolls around.

No. They would be regular colored. Isn't that what Zombies eat?
