Could have been worse could have been the 86 Dial Tone with a wig and female uniform "Benny Hill Theme" Dial Tone in Drag!

Quite frankly they should keep the old characters the same and make new ones end of freakin story okay. Dial tone should be a guy i dont give two rips if its new or not. the onyl reason they do these "changes" is cause they think no one will notice or care. Well people do. Don't be lame and change characters...MAKE NEW ONES. Already IDW is showing how lazy and uninventive their staff is by just renaming some redhead chick in an all brown uniform dialtone. Its a cheap cop out to avoid being creative and make a PC change to the joe verse. what black ripcord wasnt enough?!!!

I could accept it if they gave the code names to new operatives when the old ones die or retire.
However I don't see any evidence of that. And it won't get bad until they make road block white. |

They're not taking a well-established male character and making him female. They're creating a new character who has the same code name in AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT, COMPLETELY NEW, AND SEPARATE UNIVERSE from your established Dial-Tone. This has NO impact on any previous incarnation of Dial-Tone whatsoever. |

it does because most all of us know dial tone is a GUY NO GIRL GUY!!! Again it goes back to making ripcord black. Would you be this okay with it if say snake eyes was a chick and storm shadow was gay?!!! I know for sure I WOULDNT be. MAKE a new character...not a woman with an old, familiar name. Too many people will know dialtone was a guy. Doin stupid things liek this is gonna hurt joe stuff.

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. |

why not just scrap any use of any name previously? start with a WHOLE NEW TEAM no duke no flint no snake eyes no storm shadow no cc no destro? just all new team all new characters etc etc? I think personally that'd be the only way to do it. and if they ever do make prominently gay joes it would be un realistic unless they are civilian hires because as it stands...if you are openly gay and you are enlisted....which thus far the joes are still enlisted military, you are booted no questions asked. I hope they dont but we all know they will.
