Betrayed by an impostor in their ranks, G.I. Joe is disbanded by the government. Now fugitives from the military, the Joes must ally with Destro who gives them information on how to defeat Cobra Commander and Zartan to regain their resources.
"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.
