Valor vs. Venom

2nd of 3 Reel FX films. Written by Judith & Garfield Reeves-Stevens. Released direct-to-video September 14, 2004.

Previous story: Spy Troops: The Movie
Next story: Ninja Battles

Amid news of adult abductions, drones collect DNA samples from animals in a zoo. When Hawk is kidnapped just before an award ceremony for children, the President assigns Duke to investigate the overall situation. The Joes' investigation raises the suspicions of Dr. Lincoln Talbot, the zoo's veterinarian. In Antarctica, Hawk is introduced to Cobra's Venomization process, which injects the DNA into the abducted humans to create new hybrid V-Troops. Meanwhile, Flint's team on the Brazilian coast is testing a new rain generator.

Slice and Slash lead an attack on Flint's team, forcing them to destroy their outpost and flee into the jungle. Tunnel Rat doubles back for recon as Slice and Slash begin reconstructing a launch computer for the rain generator. Meanwhile, Duke's team has arrived at G.I. Joe's command center at Fort Reed and located Cobra's Antarctic base. Just then, Cobra launches an attack so Storm Shadow can steal the Joes' launch codes. Duke strikes back with an assault on Cobra's base, only to witness the captured Hawk mutated into Venomous Maximus, a hulk who resists Cobra's orders and claims command of the V-Troops.

Scarlett catches Dr. Talbot sneaking around the ruins of the command center and the two team up. Meanwhile, Flint's team regroups off the coast, where they fight off Electric E.E.L.s. Cobra brings Venonomous Maximus to the citadel, with plans to use the Joes' launcher to rain Venom on any city in the world. Duke and Kamakura escape Cobra's base and rally the Joes to take back the citadel, taking along an antidote developed by Dr. Talbot using a captured Electric E.E.L. With the launcher counting down, the Joes distribute the antidote from the air and then assault the citadel, while the Joe ninjas attempt to shut down the launcher. The battle, complicated by Venomous and Over Kill fighting both Joe and Cobra, ends with Hawk restored, the launcher safely stuck in reverse, and Cobra Commander captured.
