Cold Shoulder

G.I. Joe/Oktober Guard team up with Rampart and Cpt. Krimov to work on a space satellite while Sgt. Slaughter, Sub-Zero and Stretcher monitoring their movements, but Cobra wants it for themselves which leads to the satellite and 2 Joe team members being captured. It's up to Sub-Zero and Stretcher to save them while the Sarge backs them up along with their troops against Cobra's attacks.

The DiC run dropped the Sunbow-era public-service spots in favor of leaner, plot-driven endings. Continuity nods to the Sunbow era appear when convenient and are sidelined when the toy slate of the moment took priority. Morality plays remain, but the editorial voice is tighter.
