Blaine M. Gonsalves

Blaine M. Gonsalves stepped onto the page in 1988 — right in the thick of Larry Hama and Marshall Rogers' legendary run on G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero — and has kept a foothold in that universe ever since, with appearances stretching all the way to 2025. It's a testament to the richness of the Real American Hero roster that a character can share adventures with the likes of Blocker, Mutt, Zarana, and Avalanche across decades of Copper and Modern Age storytelling. Collectors digging deep into the compendium editions will find Gonsalves tucked into the sprawling, meticulously crafted world Hama built — a world where even the names on the margins reward the devoted reader.
