I've been trying to remember but haven't got a clue. I know there were too many killed in Trucial Abyssmia and need a list for some background info in a dio I'm writing out.

He said the original comic book.
Devil's Due deaths like Chuckles and Flash don't count because they're Devil's Due "We gotta be gritty to sell issues!" deaths.

Here's the entire list of Joe deaths throughout the Marvel comic book:
General Flagg
Mangler
Doc
Crankcase
Thunder
Heavy Metal
Quick Kick
Breaker
Crazylegs
Cool Breeze
Maverick
Blaster
Avalanche
Blocker
Knockdown
Dee-Jay
Sneak-Peek

Interesting how Devil's Due's comic has been around for, what? Five years? And they're already damn close to matching the number of Joes killed during Marvel's entire 12-year run of GIJoe comics.

Yeah, but one thing I hated about the comics and cartoons in the 80's was with all those guns blazing, no one hardly ever died......

I like it gritty and real....

Yeah, I had the same problem with all the '80s cartoon series. Transformers, Robotech, Voltron, GI Joe, all had guns blazing and yet, remarkably no one ever got hit, everyone had a chance to escape before the final explosion and military budgets didn't affect operations.

They say battles are won with aimed fire. Someone said that during the Battle for Springfield.

If the terrorists ran into Joe bullets, we wouldn't need "a daring, highly-trained special missions force." We'd need a guy a with a .50 cal and another to keep feeding the ammo.

Okay, maybe that would be a little TOO gritty.

The great thing about my Joe-verse growing up was that sometimes guys did get killed. But I didn't sit there and have a funeral. I just "rebooted" my Joe-verse the next day and everybody was in play again. I never read any of the DD stuff, just Marvel.

This was shortly before the beach landing assault where Overlord punched through Chuckles' torso and Skidmark was too close to an exploding thing.
