Rock 'n Roll loves loud noises. Whether it's ear-splitting guitar riffs or heavy machine gun fire, it doesn't matter, it's all music to his ears. A G.I. Joe from the team's inception, Rock 'n Roll has been blasting firepower in the Cobra direction ever since. Now stationed at G.I. Joe Headquarters, Rock 'n Roll heads the armament division, lending his expertise in tactical defensive systems, equipment maintenance and heavy weapons repair. Even with added responsibility, he still retains the quirky sense of humor he is famous for: A dedicated soldier, Rock 'n Roll is always ready to lay down cover fire and guide the team to their target without missing a beat. You can bet the Cobra troops attempting to infiltrate the Headquarters are singing the blues at the mere mention of his name.
