the story that it pushes is the human side of the story. that is what seperates GIJoe from just another war / spy / Sci-fi movie.
it isn't JUST G.I. Joe vs Cobra...it is also the people who make it up.
the VAST majority of the G.I. Joe story since 1982, or it's golden years, have seen the parring. it's there...almost as 'there' as Snake Eyes wearing a mask and being mute.
The comics have been written by 3 different companies, all containing this part of the character's backgrounds.
it is part of it.
Honestly, who cares about Scarlett and Snake Eyes? I grew up watching the cartoon. It was always Duke and Scarlett. I didn't even know about the Snake Eyes angle until the DDP relaunch. I bought the Marvel TPBs when I was 30 and learned about Snake Eyes and Scarlett then.
I would venture to say that most people who grew up on Joes probably associate Scarlett with Duke anyway. So if I survived the world shattering revelation that Scarlett actually had a scivvy relationship with Snake Eyes after 20 years, I'm sure you guys can survive a revamp of Scarlett's dating history now.
Also, I thought the whole Ripcord/Scarlett thing was debunked. I thought it was going to strictly be Scarlett and Duke?
