Cesspool

Slithering out of the pages of G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero #124 in 1992, Cesspool is a Copper/Modern Age villain born from the creative partnership of Larry Hama and Andrew Wildman at a pivotal moment in the legendary series. With a name that says everything you need to know about where this character stands on the moral spectrum, Cesspool keeps dangerous company — sharing panels with the likes of Snake-Eyes and Conrad S. Hauser — and has persisted across nearly thirty years of G.I. Joe publishing history into the IDW era. A deep-cut antagonist for the dedicated collector, Cesspool is exactly the kind of darkly flavored character that gives the Real American Hero universe its enduring edge.
