Too many people will know dialtone was a guy. Doin stupid things liek this is gonna hurt joe stuff.
Yeah, I would.
Because it has NO effect on the Snake Eyes or Storm Shadow I know. Actually, Tommy being gay wouldn't altogether surprise me at all.
And, "too many people will know Dial-Tone was a guy?" If you go up to a member of the general populace and mention Dial-Tone or Ripcord they'll have no idea what you're talking about, so past perceptions has no bearing on the brand's fairing with these new media ventures.
And again, THESE ARE NEW CHARACTERS. Just because the name is the same, and in many cases the design, THEY ARE NOT YOUR BELOVED CHILDHOOD JOES. They are NEW CHARACTERS who LOOK SIMILAR.
