I have to agree with Self-Modifier.

Larry Hama's GIJoe comics were always mature but up until the Trucial Abysmia story, very few Joes had died, and those that did were generally created for story purposes (Mangler immediately comes to mind).

I guess what I wanted was a Cobra with a purpose, GIJoes being soldiers doing an impossible job, sometimes taking heavy damage for very small victories, getting screwed over by politics, etc. The stuff that made the Hama run so fun.

Instead it's Old GIJoe Cartoon + Death.
