- Sgt. Slaughter is a human from the G.I. Joe portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Sgt. Slaughter is the drill sergeant for the counter-terrorist team G.I. Joe. His real name is classified. He is a complete and total hardass and could kick your butt into next year, where he'll kick it back to right after he kicked it a year ahead. And then send it home in a ditty bag.
An itty bitty ditty bag.
His preferred method of disposing his foes was the dreaded Cobra Clutch, but in a sad twist of irony, he was never able to apply this hold to Cobra Commander.

Notes
- The idea of a time-traveling Sgt. Slaughter inspiring the legend of Hercules is taken straight from the G.I Joe: A Real American Hero episode, "G.I. Joe and the Golden Fleece".
- Sgt. Slaughter is based on the in-ring persona of the WWE wrestler with the same name, who was the character's voice actor.
