- Summary:
- Four new stories of G.I. Joe. First, when Army Ranger Wayne Sneeden washes ashore in Guatemala with no memory of who he is, how he got there, or who shot him, putting together the pieces of his past shows him a future he never imagined--and a new name to go with it: Beach Head! Next, the Baroness was once part of a respectable, aristocratic family, before leaving them in search of her own destiny. Soon, she would meet the man that changes her path in life forever. Now a deadly COBRA operative, the Baroness seeks this man once more, but perhaps rescue is not her intention. Third, meet Wallace Weems, a soldier everybody calls Ripcord. Lost in a forbidding jungle, Ripcord has one mission: Survival! And if he doesn't outwit, outfight, and outlast the terrorists hunting him, thousands more might die! And last, a dangerous political situation is about to explode in the capital city of Venezuela and the only Joe who can help is ... Snow Job?! Outgunned and out of his element, can Snow Job possibly succeed in a sniper battle on the dangerous rooftops of Caracas?
