| | E-4 (or equivalent) Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: Santa Clarita, CA Posts: 2,618 | I watched the cartoon religiously as a kid so I had to pick that. I actually only had a few issues of the comic as a little kid (didn't collect comics until I was 10 or 11 and didn't collect GI Joe comics at all). Thanks to Xerofall I have been able to enjoy how great the comic book is! But sentimentality won me over and I just had to say the cartoon. |

It was the comic all the way.
Always read/played in the Hama-verse, and used the voices from the toon.

The comic has more permanence, is more influential and ultimately more what GI JOE is about.
But... kicking back and popping in a DVD of the cartoon is still a fine way to while away a few hours one lazy evening.
Ultimately they offer great entertainment within their respective mediums and don't really compete, but if I had to choose one it would be the comics.
