Story: Decades after their fame, journalist Hector Ramirez of "Twenty Questions" tracks down the members of the Heavy Metal band Cold Slither to see what they are up to now. We follow Hector as he visits each member in their new lives and how they remember those old days.
Writer: What a "banger" of an issue. This just plays up the classic "Behind the Music" trope while incorporating aspects from classic G.I. Joe (mainly, Mr. Ramirez) with a bit of modern-technology added into the storytelling. You can tell the team had a few directions they could have taken this story and had fun doing it. There are references galore to old G.I. Joe stories sprinkled here and there in this issue.
Art: Art is great; for their modern look, some of the Dreadnoks got some sensible updates but you can still easily tell it's them. Colors are good as well. Some nice references to other Hasbro animated television series (Jem and The Holograms + Inhumanoids + Transformers: Generation 1) are also tossed in.
Overall: A fun issue which played up a classic episode from the G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero (1983 TV series). Cold Slither will make you want to join them soon!
