I think a gear head has taken over the GI Joe comic book, based on what the review of the latest comic book says... "GI Joe seeks help from his old friend Clutch, who agrees to hide him out in his autoshop and junkyard."

One of the franchise’s most iconic vehicles, the V.A.M.P. stands for Vehicle: Attack/Multi-Purpose. As one of the very first vehicles released in the 1982 toy line, it’s fitting that Clutch would make his debut alongside the V.A.M.P., as the original figure came packaged with the classic jeep.

The appearance of the V.A.M.P. in Duke #2 complements the arsenal of vehicles and weaponry the title character stumbled upon in the first issue. 

Classic Cobra vehicles, include the H.I.S.S. tank, the Cobra F.A.N.G. and more. Vehicles were always a huge part of the franchise, meaning fans are thrilled that the new continuity appears determined to make use of all the classic toys in fun, exciting ways.

( I get a kick out of the innovative ways they named the vehicles in the thematic way)
