Episode Synopsis
The Story of Tunnel Rat: G.I. Joe’s Underground Legend and Larry Hama’s Legacy.The story of Tunnel Rat is more than just camo paint and a big backpack—it’s the tale of a wisecracking, gum-chewing underdog who crawled his way into our childhood memories and just might be the most personal G.I. Joe of all time. Based on the legendary Larry Hama himself, Tunnel Rat first exploded onto the scene in 1987 and never really left—appearing in cartoons, comics, and toy shelves across decades. From his roots in Vietnam-era tunnel warfare to his unforgettable animated antics (giant worm, anyone?), this deep dive celebrates the Joe who always found another way in… or out.
