Downtown

Stepping onto the battlefield in 2013, Downtown made their Modern Age debut in Larry Hama's legendary G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero run at IDW — a series that has kept the franchise's pulse beating strong for decades. Introduced in issue #193 alongside a roster of fan-favorite names like Leatherneck, Mutt, and Dashiell R. Faireborn, Downtown joins a world rich with military action and the kind of ensemble storytelling Hama has always done best. With appearances also collected in Classic G.I. Joe TPB, this is a character rooted in one of comics' most enduring adventure franchises — a fresh face in a storied universe well worth tracking down for any Joe devotee.
