Lakeside Tattooz Insert Variant (unopened inserts may or may not have the sample tattoo inside). While there is no definitive information about the Lakeside Tattooz inserts, they are known to occur over several different Marvel issues printed in March 1983. Unlike Amazing Spider-Man #238 and FF #252 where the insert was present in every copy, it appears only a limited amount of copies of this issue received the Lakeside insert (regional distribution?). Also, some of the inserts, although never opened, exist without the free tattoo sample inside.

Painted cover by Norman Saunders. Stories and art by Dan De Carlo, Rudy Lapick, Jack Sparling, Paul S. Newman, Mort Lawrence, and Wally Littman. 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. A guy who never gets letters from home wonders if he's better off than the guy who gets a "Dear John" letter. Scantily clad USO stage magician Little Miss Magic lends a hat when the boys are captured by enemy soldiers during R&R. Joe reveals key information to beautiful enemy agent Lilith the Tigress, or so it seems. Plus the story of how draftees Windy and Whitey became the dimwittest privates in the Army, with art by future Archie legend Dan De Carlo. Quick Change; Dear John; G.I. Joe Meets Lilith the Tigress; Buddies: Grumpys Sweetheart; The General Who Led The Way; Little Miss Magic; Ancient Sam; The Yardbirds: Draft Bait!; The Baby of Company B. 48 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
