I don't think I've ever seen the cartoon version. What was she like? Was it in a DIC episode?

I think she was in Arise Serpentor Arise, same as your boy Wong. Brunette, pink outfit, cartoon hottie, lol Looking for screen shot now.

Third episode.

Really? I must have missed the Oktober Guard's appearance. Then again, I've never been able to watch Arise Serpentor Arise straight through. Even with the DVD, I always end up falling asleep midway through and then waking up when the "orange-poop monster" starts terrorizing Cobra Island.

This would have been before the orange poop monster. I haven't been able to find any scans.

Heh. She totally looks like a black-haired version of Maetel from Galaxy Express 999.

Both Diana and Wong make their first appearances in the episode "The Invaders" from the first season. And yeah, that's how she looks then, too.

[Loose Cannon]

I don't remember Diana at all. Who is that third guy? With Wong and Diana?

But Zulu your Oktober Guard are great. Perfect up to date renditions. Were you some kind of language major in college? The amount of consideration you make and research is very much appreciated by me. Great job as always.

Oh I forgot to mention the Action Force team is a great set up. nice small team, much like the beginning of the Joes. I think you got everyone, that was the essence of Action force.

(Looking at the team I'm going to use the 5 pack Duke as Eagle, and TRU 3pack Sgt Stone as Skip.)

You try messing with Q-Force and Space force, ehh.

Even the few guys in Z-Force that are missing, I don't see as important as they tend to have conflicting code Names; Tracker, Breaker, Doc.

Thanks!

I actually majored in basic medical science, but I studied linguistics & cognitive science when I moved to Canada (I didn't earn enough credits to get my second degree, but I did earn a mention in the acknowledgements section in one of the more recent editions of Understanding Syntax for my very small contribution to the book's Tagalog examples). I've always had an interest in languages, though. Studied basic German when I was a kid (my teacher was Munich-born artist/author Katrin De Guia, wife of avant-garde filmmaker Kidlat Tahimik... but I've forgotten most of it due to disuse), took basic French when I moved here, and I'm fluent in two Philippine languages (Tagalog & Ilocano) and can understand basic written Bahasa Indonesia/Melayu (due to its similarities withTagalog & Ilocano).

Yeah, the duplicate code names are an issue for me. Translating them into equivalent terms in their native languages helps, but I think one can change only so many of them before their original identity as a group starts becoming obscured.
