Hama did promote some Joes in the Marvel series and Hawk got a promotion.
I like the way IDW handles it, the Joes "die" and then become Joes. That means they can set up the ranking system however they want. So maybe when you're a Joe the ranks don't change at all, or you rank per a Joe system? Rocky, I'd check out the IDW series. It started slow but the 2nd arc has really started hitting a stride and really amping up with what kind of threat Cobra will be. CHeck out the Origins and Cobra series as well. Cobra is a major world threat in IDW and I can't wait to see how big and dangerous it is. The Baroness says they know a cure for Cancer and Destro asks why they don't sell it and make billions and she replies "because we make trillions by not selling it".

I'm very excited about the new TRU 5-packs. And $20 isn't bad at all. I'm really looking forward to all the Joe figures. I hope I can troop build the Zartans - I'd like to have some desert MP's.
However, I'm really excited about the Cobra set with "infiltration" Duke. As I've mentioned, I use RoC Duke as a different character: Major Striker. This figure will work well with Night Force. I'm excited to be able to add to Night Force. I hope I see one soon. I want to rename him after Eagle from Action Force: BFTB But I already have a character with that codename. |

I'm not sure what I'm going to do with Infiltrator Duke. He'll be a new character but not sure which way to go yet.
I may make him Black Out.

I know some Joes got promoted but some like Duke just flip floped between Master Sgt and First Sgt(with what I would call a error ranking of E-6 on the 25th Tiger Force file card). As for how they would pay them or how they would re enter society, I don't know. Like I said this idea just popped into my head and isn't something I've put a lot of thought into. I also like the idea of the Joes having their own ranking system

That does bring up a good point....
Are you a Joe until death? In Marvel Grunt went back to being a civilian, but how does that work? How do they end up accounting for his missing years? And in IDW, the Joes "die", how do they reenter society?

How about when Joes re enter society they make up a story about a bunch of POW/MIA soldier being rescued?
