Bad Luck Woman

The Story of the Jinx: GI Joe’s Bad Luck Ninja with Blind Bad Ass Moves The story of Jinx is one of bad luck, blindfolded beatdowns, and blazing red ninja fashion. Debuting in 1987 during a golden era of GI Joe, Jinx broke barriers as the line’s first female ninja and instantly left a sharp impression—both on toy shelves and in animated brawls. From her sparring sessions with Beach Head to her tragic fate in the IDW comics, Jinx’s journey spans bo staffs, blind masters, and more costume changes than a fashion show on a stealth mission. Whether she's the cousin of Storm Shadow, the apprentice of Snake Eyes, or an action figure with manicured nails, Jinx is far more than just a streak of bad luck. She’s a fan favorite with a flair for silent takedowns and under-the-radar legacy. Let’s dive into the red-clad saga of GI Joe’s most lethal lady ninja!
