What the hell, some G.I. Joe!

[seriousfic]

So the Joes are in South America to do something involving a coup. This being G.I. Joe, Cobra, Destro, a fruit company cartel, and other sinister forces are at work. But in the midst of all that, our boys pay a visit to the embassy.







Happy Memorial Day everyone, and remember to check for angry gun-wielding soldiers before you do any flag-burning.

Don't know if this matters, I'm just pointing this out -- I'm the guy that wrote the Liberal Apologia for GI Joe series back on the old scans_daily. This means two things:

1. I've been over the entire series with a fine-toothed comb
2. I tend to see the series real politically, maybe more than it deserves.

So YMMV, to me the GI Joe series is a veritable zoo of every type of jingoism. I love the "protect your buddy" side of the story. I'm more than a little troubled by the nationalism.

If you're interested, I think Roadblock is in the wrong here, but I see where he's coming from.
