G.I. Joe, a Real American Hero [25th Anniversary Action Figure Original Series] #36 1/2 [#3]

In "A Bad Day at the Circus," the twins rise in Cobra’s ranks under Commander’s new orders, drawing attention as they move through town—sparking concern among the G.I. Joe team. Meanwhile, Professor Appel presses forward with his work on the Terror Drome, adding tension to an already volatile situation. Written by Larry Hama and illustrated with sharp detail by Jeremy Dale, this issue captures the escalating stakes with a grounded, character-driven edge, all rendered in full color by Kieran Oats and lettered by Jim Keplinger. The cover, also by Jeremy Dale, perfectly captures the moment’s unease.
