Introduction

One of the G.I. Joe commanders, by the way, was "General Flagg." OK, comics aren't good at the subtlety...

Cobra

by Eugene Ipavec, 21 march 2005

You can see the flag of Cobra here. It's a red and white (or, in another version, all red) cobra's head on a blue banner.

A bit of Googling done, I can attest that there are three variants of Cobra flag:

as seen here: red and white cobra's head on a blue banner.
all-red cobra's head on a blue banner.
all-red cobra's head on a black banner.

G.I. Joe

A Real American Hero (1980s)

by Eugene Ipavec, 14 april 2005

I vaguely recall seeing a white flag with a star, a streak following after it, and the words G.I.JOE, in red and blue. Not very creative.

The flag of the GI Joe team itself is rather dull--silver, with a vertical triband of red-white-blue culminating in three stars of the same color at the bottom and the team name + one blue star on top.

Sigma Six (2000s)

There is currently a new TV series airing in the US, "GI Joe: Sigma Six." In it the GI Joe task force uses a completely different flag--white, with a UN-blue wreath enclosing a black gridwork globe with an outlined "S" at the prime meridian and the world's continents superimposed over it, again in UN blue. The change may be due to the fact that new series is a US/Japan coproduction: the old design may have been thought too Yankee-centric.
