G.I. Joe Classified Series – Destro & Iron Grenadier Despoiler

"Destro is the faceless power behind M.A.R.S. (Military Armaments Research System) Industries, the largest manufacturer of state-of-the-art weaponry. Once a major supplier and advisor to Cobra, Destro has grown weary of Cobra Commander's ambitions and decided to seize global control under his own rule, coalescing his influence in the small European nations of Trans-Carpathia and neighboring Darklonia."

"Adorned in his full battle regalia, he commands an all-out invasion, of his Iron Grenadier forces, leading them into battle atop the Despoiler. To Destro, war is man's most natural state: the fittest survive and the greatest technological advances are made. G.I. Joe's forces may not be able to stop Destro's aggressive advances on their own."
