Jinx (G.I. Joe)

Joe Team's female ninja, and since then her code name has been the identity of several other incarnations of the same character, including one of Snake Eyes' apprentices in G.I.

Jinx has since undergone training with the Blind Master, a ranking ninja sensei, and studied the seven silent forms, including the "Eye That Pierces", the "Iron Hand" and the "Heart That Waits".

Joe: Retaliation 2012 Movie Line exclusively at San Diego Comic-Con in 2012: an updated version in a red ninja suit, and an unmasked variant of her wearing a white costume and wielding a kusarigama.

After fighting together with Storm Shadow against Zartan in San Francisco,[19] Jinx and Scarlett are injured during a battle against the rival Red Ninjas.

[20] Later, Jinx and her fellow Ninja Force teammates T'Jbang and Nunchuk set up a new training center in Spanish Harlem.

Joe: A Real American Hero comics published by Devil's Due, it is revealed that she spent the years that followed using her skills in intelligence-gathering to become a bounty hunter in Tokyo.

[22] During the initial conflict, Duke leads a team with Jinx, Flint, Rock 'n Roll and Shipwreck to defend Washington D.C. against Cobra's forces.

She stars in Special Missions: Tokyo, a one-shot comic focusing on many characters not seen since the end of the original series, including Wild Bill, Gung-Ho, Clutch, Rock 'n Roll, and Budo.

[30] Jinx is called again into active duty to fight off Cobra Commander's worldwide assault during World War III.

She and Budo join Kamakura, Bullhorn, Red Spot, and Nunchuk in battling Cobra forces in China.

[37] In the continuation of the A Real American Hero storyline by IDW Publishing, Jinx is sent on her own special mission to Bern,[38] where she tests her new skills and defeats the Blue Ninjas.

[43] She is in turn herself rescued by Roadblock, Scarlett, and Snake Eyes in Dublin,[44] and helps to avenge the death of Pale Peony.

Joe: Cobra II, features a new recruit who is a Jinx lookalike, sent on a mission to rescue Chuckles,[51] and later revealed to be a Japanese ninja named Chameleon.

Joe In 3-D.[63][64][65] She and Snake Eyes star in Hasbro's standalone comics, such as The Secret Base,[66] Ninja Battles,[67] and Who Owns the Night?

[68] Jinx also appears in major roles in some of Fun Publications' comics that are a part of the Devil's Due Publishing continuity.

[72] She is established as a member of the "Rawhides", a group of new Joe recruits including Big Lob, Chuckles, Law & Order and Tunnel Rat, trained by Beach Head.

Jinx is depicted as fighting best when blindfolded, as she was trained in this method by the Blind Master, as opposed to the practice Beach Head tries to teach her.

Jinx is featured prominently in the climax, when she hotwires a Tomahawk so the Rawhides can aid the Joes in combat, and later squares off against Cobra-La villainess Pythona.

At the end of the film, Jinx shares a kiss with Falcon and they watch as the remains of Cobra-La's mutation spores in the sky are burning in orbit.

Set in the same continuity as Valor Vs. Venom, Jinx and Kamakura assists Snake Eyes, Duke, and new apprentice Tiger Claw in a battle against Storm Shadow and the Cobra ninjas Slice, Slash, and Shadow Strike, at the forge of Arashikage Clan swordsmith Iron Master.

The daughter of Arashikage clan leader Hard Master and cousin to Storm Shadow, Kimi Arashikage was rescued by Snake Eyes at the age of eight, and was an instrumental part of Hard Master adopting a moral path for the clan when she protected Snake Eyes from her father's punishment.

Though Jinx is at odds with the Joes (especially Scarlett, as Snake Eyes seemed to treat her with extra care), they put aside their differences when Storm Shadow ambushes them.

Storm Shadow tries to force Jinx to go back to Japan and lead the Arashikage with him, and attacks her when she refuses, before Snake Eyes comes to her aid.

After Storm Shadow tells her how Snake Eyes murdered her father, as he believed it to have occurred, Jinx returns to Japan to assume her role as the Arashikage's leader.

[74] Later, Jinx is hired by Destro to assassinate Cobra Commander, receiving a MARS high-tech suit with optical camouflage and force field.

Not going through with the mission, Jinx eventually learns the true story behind her father's death, and resolves to lead the Arashikage down the new path that the Hard Master wanted.

[78] Yung, who already owned a black belt in karate, prepared for about a month for the role, focusing on her cardio "because of how demanding it all was", and training in the Chinese martial art wushu for dual sword fighting.

"[81] According to MTV, "the totally silent mountainside battle between Snake Eyes, Jinx and a squad of Cobra ninjas mirrors the similarly silent comic book issue in the original Marvel series, which depicts Snake Eyes rescuing Scarlett from a Cobra castle in the Balkans.

Ray Park, who played Snake Eyes in the film, said that the relationship between Jinx and his character is strictly platonic.

"[80] Jinx is a supporting character in the 1988 novels Divide and Conquer, where she is part of the Joe team trying to stop Cobra's newest weapon, a device that could endanger the entire world,[84][85] and Jungle Raid, where she is part of a team ordered to stop a rebel mercenary force in the steaming jungles of South America.
