G.I. JOE: A REAL AMERICAN HERO SEASON 2.0

Synopsis

After COBRA’s countless defeats by the heroic Special Forces unit known as G.I. JOE, the mad super genius Dr. MINDBENDER seeks to dethrone the maniacal COBRA COMMANDER by genetically combining the DNA of history’s most formidable conquerors. The result is a threat more menacing and power-hungry than COBRA COMMANDER can ever hope to challenge: the mighty SERPENTOR! Armed with a new master, a new army of Battle Android Troopers (B.A.T.s) and a new set of plans for world domination, COBRA seems unstoppable! That is, of course, unless GENRAL HAWK and his team of commandos have anything to say about it. Yo Joe!
