The new Cobra Commander has made his first move—all-out invasionof the Southeast Asian nation of Nanzhao, a center of the worldwidedrug trade. G.I. Joe moves in to stop the invasion and find Cobra’s goalsaren’t occupation—but annihilation!

While the Joes battle in the streets and jungles, Snake Eyes confrontsStorm Shadow, who proposes an alliance against Cobra. Snake Eyesaccepts his sword brother’s request, leaving the other Joes to believehim dead. Meanwhile, G.I. Joe strikes back against Cobra’s B.A.T.s, usingheavy ordnance to take down the androids. After Cobra detonatesnuclear bombs in a half-dozen empty Nanzhao cities, this small victoryrings hollow for the Joes.
