I was traveling all day, but it's still Tuesday and there's still time for one more #yojoeday for 2013.
I was traveling all day, but it's still Tuesday and there's still time for one more #yojoeday for 2013. I got a little goofed and did issue 5 last week, and labelled it 4. I fixed it. Here is issue 4 with bonus panels.
Special Missions 4
The Joes, Leatherneck, Roadblock, Wild Bill, and Lifeline, have stolen a Cobra Firebat and are trying to get it's black boxes out before the Oktober Guard shoots them down with their sweet-ass Hind. But they are shot down and have to bail out but manage to hit the Hind with a Stinger and it crashes also. They set off in search of the wreckage so they can maybe complete their mission.
Leatherneck is dismayed by Lifeline's status as a conscientious objector and non-combatant and bullies him pretty relentlessly about it. Even when Lifeline shows his competence several times while trekking through the jungle, getting rid of leeches and helping avoid an attack from the creepiest looking tiger in comic history. Seriously, Herb, you're great, but you can't draw a tiger.
Leatherneck and Wild Bill are seriously injured but so are Stormavik and Schrage. Both sides reach the wreckage, but they are all captured by the most awesome river pirates in history. Sarawak Sally chooses Lifeline to fight Horrorshow for the lives of their teams. Lifeline refuses, citing his non-combatant status, but Horrorshow doesn't care, and attacks. Unfortunately for him, Lifeline is a master of Aikido, and knocks him out cold without throwing a punch. When Lifeline refuses to kill Horrorshow and offers the black boxes to Sally for everyone's lives, Sally is impressed with his honor and sacrifices the boxes to the river gods, "in celebration of the continuance of valor!"
Bad Guys: Oktober Guard, river pirates.
Running Dog insult: Nope.
Cool toy(s): Cobra Firebat black boxes.
Bad-Ass Non-Joe:The river pirate queen, Sarawak Sally.
Weird stuff: The other Joes barely defend Lifeline from Leatherneck's bullying.
Rating: 5 Yo Joes.

Whoever is breeding pug nosed tigers is evil and cruel and should just stop.
