1st printing - Part 2 of 2 - "Walls of Death!" Guest-starring the Oktober Guard. Written by Larry Hama and Herb Trimpe. Art by Herb Trimpe and Chic Stone. GI Joe and their Russian counterparts, the Oktober Guard, must set aside their differences and work together if they are to stop a Top Secret weapon from falling into the hands of Cobra. 32 pages, FC. NOTE: This issue sports an amazing, dynamic cover. At the time this story was released, the Cold War was at its height and this was truly an amazing sight to behold - America and Russia, fighting side-by-side for the greater good. This is easily one of my all time favorite Joe tales in the history of the franchise. - Odinson, Lone Star Comics Archivist Cover price $0.60.
