Who is Kimi Arashikage?
Kimi Arashikage stepped onto the page in 1987's G.I. Joe in 3-D #1, brought to life by John Stephenson and E.R. Cruz during the Copper Age boom when the Joe franchise was firing on all cylinders. Over nearly four decades of publication, she's carved out a steady presence across the flagship G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero titles at IDW, sharing adventures with heavy hitters like Scarlett, Duke, and Cobra Commander himself. With 61 catalog appearances, a key issue to her name, and a run stretching all the way to 2025, Kimi Arashikage is a quietly enduring figure in the Joe universe — exactly the kind of character a deep-diving collector loves to track down and champion.
