Storm Shadow’s ability to slow down Cobra Commander’s heart rate
In G.I. Joe, Storm Shadow has been a major player in the series. The ninja master began his career in mainstream U.S. intelligence groups, but he eventually joined the Cobra organization. This time, he was brainwashed by the enemy by convincing him that his former employers were traitors. The Cobra Commander had been in a position of power, and they believed that Storm Shadow was the traitor who was responsible for his downfall. Since then, Storm Shadow has adapted his martial arts skills to serve evil purposes. The former mercenary is an expert on counterintelligence, and once performed undercover sabotage operations. This knowledge is what he uses against the Sigma 6 team in the series.
In G.I. Joe, Storm Shadow was placed on Alcatraz Island, where he hid while hiding in an arrow. He boasted that no prison would be able to hold a ninja. However, within a day, Storm Shadow vanished from Alcatraz. Later, he traveled to New York City where he found his former soft master, who used him to kill Hard Master.
