In this pulse-pounding first adventure, your host Steeven takes you back… way back… to 1982 and the debut issue that launched an American legend: G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero #1!
Thrill as a team of elite heroes — Hawk! Scarlett! Snake Eyes! Stalker! And an entire platoon of plastic-born patriots — race against time to stop a sinister plot known only as Operation: Lady Doomsday!
Gasp as Cobra Commander schemes from the shadows, deploying treachery, terror, and at least one incredibly unsafe island fortress!
Shiver with anticipation as brave Joes leap from transport jets, break into high-security lairs, and confront danger with grit, courage, and the occasional snappy one-liner!
Meanwhile, Steeven guides you through every twist and turn of this historic comic like a veteran announcer at the mic — illuminating character debuts, behind-the-scenes lore, military mayhem, and the explosive birth of the Real American Hero era!
So gather the family around the digital hearth, dim the lights, and tune your dial to adventure —
Because in Episode 1, the battle for freedom begins… and not everyone will make it out unscathed!
Don’t miss it, folks! Same Joe time… same Joe channel!
Yo Joe!
