I always remember-my brother Jim and I got off the school bus on a Friday,after a long week and our typical hour-long busride( we lived in farm country )Mom and Dad had bought us several comics to enjoy over the weekend-and GI Joe 11 was the prize! i read it first,totally blown away by the story and the new Joes! WHO was the mysterious new Cobra leader,his head always in the shadows?

My brother and I spent an inspired weekend of Joe-playing..........thanks Mom and Dad! Thanks Larry Hama! Thanks GI Joe!
