no, it isn't legal, since you use the Hasbro owned G.I. Joe logo and imagery and haven't obtained permission to do so.
the question is who is going to stop you? |

Not legal, but just make one for yourself.

I think just the words Joe Before Hoes would be fine....can't believe I just said that....fine as in not get you sued.
Its vague enough that Joes could mean anything as for the images of people you might wanna go with some sort of cartoon like characters that could be anybody and yet not specifically use someone's image. I mean even pushing it you could have the male character be an amalgam of Joe looking characters some military looking dude that looks kinda like Mutt with Dukes chest and bright orange pants. In that case its parody. And vague enough that it should fly under the radar. BUT I stress I'm speaking completely outta my ass on this one and you might end up with a C&D from Hasbro's legal in your hand. |

and now for something completely different:
palate cleanser added. jk weezus, make 'em for yourself but dont sell 'em, selling is what gets you in trouble with Hasbro's legal department.
