Zartan appears in the last panel of #24. Right next to the panel it says: NEXT ISSUE: The strangest deadliest foe the Joes have ever faced... the incredible... ZARTAN. So he is named in the comic, but not in the story by another character.
so it's a sort of a introduction already, really similar to the hulk wolvie scenario. very interesting...
on other news, the G.I. Joe title will be rebooting again, I think it is going to be released next year.
And introducing the first Indian-American Joe named Hashtag.
Whoa... there was Spirit (Charlie Iron-Knife), Airborne (Franklin E. Talltree), Altitude (John Edward O. Jones), Dart (Jimmy Tall Elk), and Redmack (Reginald Cobb).
Dang FNG Hashtag thinks he can come in and take claim of being the first native American in GI Joe!!!! (jk)
Spirit was the first Native American where they are claiming that Hashtag is Indian American so I'm assuming from India??
