G.I. Joe Classified Series

Maybe Safety & Security? Or Safe & Secure? Those are well-meaning enough, can be meant in earnest, and aren't so tied to each other they don't stand alone well. ("Law" doesn't stand alone very well without Order, if I'm being honest.)
 
Ah, that Law was meant to be part of the DEF (Drug Elimination Force) line. Order said "no NARCs" and quit. When asked later, Order said, through a canine interpreter, that he signed up to chase COBRA terrorists, not reinforce the societal norms that criminalize recreational drug use. He and Law haven't spoken since.
Devil’s Due Comics established that Timber died of old age after the Marvel run, *but* left wolf puppies behind.
I . . . felt not-good about that.
I hate that. It's comics, don't kill the dog/wolf. And male wolves can live 16 years. Sure maybe Timber's a little geriatric but make him the wolf version of Terence Stamp in the Limey.
 
One of the things I love about Old Gods of Appalachia is the writers KNOW THEIR AUDIENCE and they make a very specific point about knowing how harm to dogs is off-limits for their fans. They will do all kinds of untold horrors to humans but when a dog shows up they're like "hey family we know you guys, the dog is gonna be all right."

(I actually realized my "this takes the joy out of entertainment now" line in the sand is harm to animals. I haven't watched GOTG 3 yet because I have no stomach for animals suffering and oh boy I know what Rocket went through canonically.)

Also, I truly never verified Timber's gender til just now. I guess the GI Joe fan wiki has verified he's a male wolf? If someone told me Larry had said Timber was a girl I'd be like, cool, good to know!
