Classic Joes Stalker & Rock ’n Roll Make Their Energon Universe Debut

It ’s an intriguing cover , and one that will likely energise longtimeG.I. Joefans . In a world where the G.I. Joe and Cobra organizations have yet to be formed , it ’s surprising to see long - time villainBaroness function alongside Dukein the new continuity . Of course , it ’s likely that Anastasia DeCobray has her own agenda , and it ’s surely guaranteed she ’ll finally switch sides when it befit her needs . Stalker is also a strong improver to the plaster cast , as the character has been a stalwart of the dealership since the beginning of the Real American Hero line that kicked things off all the way back in 1982 . Most exciting is the heretofore unannounced Rock ’ n Roll , the longtime Joe machine gunner who also appear in the very first line of action figures .

The character seen riding with the Baroness on her bike is a little harder to figure out , as there are more than a few Joes who are sour - haired and bearded . Given that Stalker and Rock ’ n Roll were a part of the initial undulation of activity form give up in 1982 , it can be assumed this character is also from that original line - up , with the most probable possibilities being Breaker or Clutch . Either character would be a strong accession to the cast . Breaker is a communications specialist who can utter seven different language and is know for constantly chewing bubblegum . Clutch is the Joes ’ occupier driver and mechanic , who also moonlight as a backwash car driver on the indie circuit .
