Who Would've Thunk It? GI Joe Snake Eyes the Mute Has a Story

By Hawk Remington

Here you have run upon my GI Joe throw back memory of Snake Eyes the ninja mute and all about his history. If you remember GI Joe, you remember Snake Eyes.

Snake Eyes was the silent ninja trained by the very best and finally recruited by the elite GI Joe commando organization. What an awesome action figure with an incredible history!

As a kid, I just bought the GI Joe Snake Eyes figure without knowing too much of his background story. The trip to the toy store was filled with excitement and anticipation, so by the time I arrived, the last thing I wanted to do was read his profile and learn the history of Snake Eyes, the mute ninja commando.

After weeks of combat with my new action figure, I, like every other kid would grow tired of playing with it. That's when I would dig out the profile card that I had tucked away in the back of my close, sit down and learn about the history of the figure.

Snake Eyes was a Vietnam Veteran. Now that is cool and the story that Larry Hama had created for this character was very cool and very in-depth. The story was all about the History of Snake Eyes and how he unfortunately had become a mute. I had to learn more.

The GI Joe comic line was the next step after acquiring the Snake Eyes action figure. I would go on to read more of Larry Hama's incredible stories of the many GI Joes and their universe. However, Snake Eyes the mute, was near and dear to me.

To this very day I still collect GI Joe action figures. I display Snake Eyes at the front of my growing collection. Trust me, its worth exploring the nostalgia of the GI Joe line especially if you owned and when you were young.
