As the 3 surviving Joes face off vs. the SAW-Viper, help arrives in the form of the Mobile Battle Bunker carrying Rock n Roll, Clutch, and Wild-Card. The 6 Joes then go off to do some payback vs. the SAW-Viper who killed their comrades last issue. Meanwhile, the Twins report to the Commander about the situation, and the Commander gets disgusted when he learns they botched his order to release the Joes instead of killing them, and takes matters into his own hands as Cobra invades Benzheen. The Emirate escapes, and all Joes are called into action to free his country. To be continued...
