“Last one out… get the lights.”

The War on Cobra is over—and Cobra WON. In this nightmarish hellscape, the ruthless terrorist organization has defeated the daring, highly-trained special mission force known as GI Joe. With the shield that guarded the free world little more than a paragraph in the history books, there were none to stand in the way of Cobra Commander’s rise to power. The remaining nations of the world have pledged loyalty to Cobra, if only just to get to see another day. When the game is over, there’s nothing left to do but to settle up.

In this one world under Cobra, there is no hope of victory—only retribution! With all of the Joes presumed KIA, a mysterious homing signal pulses deep in the PIT. This signal is heavily encoded and broadcast across several GI Joe emergency channels, all saying the same thing: “HOME.”

A group of five Joes still live and answer the call! Who are you choosing to survive the purge? What is your methodology and rationale? Do all of them achieve their goal? Do all of them make it through alive?

Who are your Sole Survivors of GI Joe if Cobra were to win the war?
