In the comics & show, Snake Eyes thought he had defeted/killed Storm Shadow, only to have him come back to fight again. If villians were so easy to beat, they wouldn't need heroes

"He fell in ice cold water to heal his wounds... that is how he is alive"

That sounds just stupid enough to be the actual reason too. I guess being run through with a sword isn't the big deal it used to be in the olden days. Back when movies didn't [frick]ing suck like GI JOe did.

Zombieland writers gives me a little bit hope too! Thank god Summers doesnt direct this second one!
Now if they just get rid off Tatum, Wayans and all those other suckers and get more fitting actors to the roles and get in some new characters too like Roadblock, Rock&Roll, Shipwreck, Stalker, Firefly, Beach Head, Alpine and Snow Job! The movie will be great!:)
The most fitting actors in the first flick was Sienna Miller, Rachel Nichols, Ray park, Byung Hun Lee and Christopher Eccleston! All others i would change!

haha, true enough. I know a lot of films stretch creditability but Gi Joe just really annoyed me.
