Joe's Night Out

Leatherneck, Wet Suit, and Dial-Tone visit a new nightclub which is a Cobra rocket in disguise, sending the trio to space. Serpentor plans to ransom the civilians or blow up the rocket.

"Now you know. And knowing is half the battle." The Sunbow run closed every episode with a public-service spot delivered by a Joe character, addressing kids on a real-world hazard or virtue. The cartoon's deeper ethic, threaded into the writing across the run, was that Cobra's worldview was based on fear and the Joes' was based on responsibility.
