- Comic Vine: link
- Writer: Fred Van Lente
- Artist: Steve Kurth
As Duke‘s own friends continue to investigate him, the Mad Monk begins his campaign of terror using Destro‘s Batttle Android Troopers and providing G.I. JOE with three simultaneous threats in New York City by offering Cobra resources to the meth dealing Heathen Motorcycle Gang (under the command of Zandar and Zarana), a terrorist group planning to detonate a dirty bomb in the city, and an anti-immigrant group planning a biological attack on diplomats from the United Nations.
Spread thin across the city the JOEs attempt to neutralize each threat, but with the questions looming about Duke’s loyalty, and the fact that the Mad Monk is only getting started, things are likely to get far worse for the team and their leader in the coming issues.
The issue also gives us more of Destro wooing the Baroness to his side to take down the Mad Monk, before the destroys all of Cobra with his insanity, as the pair indulge in an unusual game of skeet shooting. Worth a look.
