Painted cover by Norman Saunders. Stories and art by Dan De Carlo, John Celardo, Henry Sharp, Mike Sekowsky, Irwin Hasen and Bernard Sachs. Sometimes listed as GI Joe #2. Neither a tie-in with the later toy line/cartoon nor a grim war comic, this first-gen GI Joe focused on lighthearted tales of military life. The Yardbirds, featuring Pvts. Windy and Whitey, was straight-up comedy of the Beetle Bailey/Sad Sack variety. Soviet intelligence names GI Joe as the "average" American soldier, so Stalin has him kidnapped to the Kremlin to see what makes him tick. Pvt. Windy tries to help his portly buddy Whitey find a uniform that fits, in a story by future Archie legend Dan De Carlo. A redheaded cowgirl movie-star who's a crack shot helps Joe with his target practice. Plus G.I. lingo of the 1940s. G.I.
