Another G.I. Joe Podcast

Breaker, Clutch, and Steeler drive the M.O.B.A.T. tank in the Armed Forces Day parade to prove to the Top Brass that, while it may be the most technologically advanced tank around, no one will see it as anything more than just an ordinary tank.

But when Cobra Commander gets wind of this little scheme, he throws together a plan to capture the M.O.B.A.T. for the glory of Cobra.

Will Cobra succeed?

That's today as we dive into G.I. Joe a Real American Hero #5: Tanks for the Memories... by Larry Hama, Don Perlin, Jon D'Agostino, Michael Esposito, Jim Novak, and Stan Goldberg.

Enjoy!

G.I. Joe a Real American Hero #5: Tanks for the Memories... was published by Marvel Comics in August of 1982.

We're doing something a little bit different today, folks.

All the information is in the episode:

After more reboots than popsicle sticks in the Potomac, Steeven Orr Else is back for one more try with an odd amalgamation of comic book critiques, movie musings, and pop culture ponderings that were recorded at various points for various shows over the last 20 years.

Cobra is back and they have a plan to find the hidden Joe base, and destroy it.

But will their plan work or will the Joes prevail once again.

That's today as we take a look at G.I. Joe a Real American Hero #3:The Trojan Gambit.

It's like Die Hard, but instead of Nakatomi Plaza, you have the Pit. Instead of John McClane you have Clutch, Breaker, and Steeler. And rather than a group of foreign terrorists, you get one big, silly looking robot.

Enjoy!

G.I. Joe a Real American Hero #3: The Trojan Gambit was published by Marvel Comics in June of 1982.

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!

Brace yourself as your host, Steeven, launches the series with a thunderclap of origin stories, corporate back-room deals, and hard-earned nostalgia.

From Hasbro’s humble fabric-shop beginnings to the public restroom handshake that sent Marvel into full-tilt toy-story mode, this is the raucous, unfiltered origin saga of G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero. 

Ride through the decades: 12-inch dolls, kung-fu grips, file-card biographies, Marvel’s first gambit, Devil’s Due detours, IDW resurrection, and Skybound’s Energon mash-up — all throttled together with Steeven’s trademark wit, weird pop-culture clips, and a feverish, emotional love letter to the eighties. If you want context, you’ll get it.

Listen if you like your history loud, your trivia obsessive, and your host gloriously unpretentious.

Subscribe, crank the volume, and prepare for a briefing: G.I. Joe was never just a toy — it was the comic that taught a generation how to play.

Yo Joe!
