Disclose Notes: First Joe 'silent' story written by Hama in the series run that had no text and depended solely on the art to carry it through. Later repeated in G.I. Joe Yearbook (Marvel, 1985 series) #3 by Hama again, and later the "Disavowed" series run at Image/Devil's Due Publishing with issue (Image, 2001 series) #21 by Josh Blaylock, as well as another book, G.I. Joe: Origins (IDW, 2009 series) #19, featuring Snake-Eyes done by Larry Hama yet again.
