You know in the cartoon, it only looks like hair a very small amount of the time. Most of the time it looks like the hood. Simple explanation - some of the animators didn't know what it was supposed to be and drew it as hair.

no good argument has been presented against it yet. People aren't choosing hair because that's what they prefer, they are "choosing" hair because that's how it was drawn. we know what it was in the comic, and the toy....but it was drawn as hair in the cartoon so it is hair in the cartoon. seems quite obvious that it's hair in the toon, maybe you're just too bullheaded to see it.
I see hood. I see hood because that is what we were presented with as a figure and every other medium representation of the character. It may appear to be hair to some, but for me - a hood. I KNOW it's supposed to be a hood no matter what the artists at Sunbow drew because that is what it is SUPPOSED to be. Some scenes certainly look like hair, I will not dispute that. I'm merely offering, like others on this thread have, my view. As for how it's drawn, it's very generic at best. I think the animators weren't sure so they presented it so that it could be interpreted as either. Based on the varying opinions presented on this thread, I would say that nothing is so obvious. Try not to get uppity over a silly cartoon v. toy argument.

Just did a figure to cartoon comparison and the reason it may look like hair is the lack of shading on his face, granted, we are talking about an 80's cartoon that lacked a lot of detail.....

I once tried to run my hand through Zartan's lucious hair one time when we were "hanging out" trust me it's a hood, not hair.

Zartan; hair or hood?
Does Zartan like candy mint or breath mint? Does Zartan wear Boxers or briefs? who was the old blind guy that cured Snake Eyes of radiation poisoning, Zartan? Why would Zartan wear a hood under his masks? Why does sunlight only inflict pain on him every now and then? Is it a snake in a turtle neck or a tapered cut? and finally ...what is a "tanker"? ...these are ALL really good questions we may never get an answer to. Zartan is truely the most unexplored G.I.Joe character, that's why he's one of my all time favorites. Last edited by butter_the_pure; 11-01-2008 at 02:46 AM.. |

It is supposed to be a hood in the cartoon. Unfortunately, the animators in some cases drew hair. When it looks like hair, it's hair. It was corrected. Zartan has and has always had from concept to execution, a hood. So lack of communication did in fact give him locks in some episodes of the cartoon.
