First, Flint, er, tussles with the Baroness—in a bikini, no less—in "The Gamesmaster."
The Unexpected Joy of Bikini-Clad Baroness (The blog, BTW, is a fun read.) Then, they share a dance in "Eau de Cobra." (BTW did you know there's a real Cobra eau de parfum as well?) https://www.fragrantica.com/perfume/...obra-5134.html So last week, as part of a comic book cover contest on another board with Image Comics as the theme, I did a search for G.I. Joe covers and found this. I. cannot. unsee. it. Searching further, I read the solicits: "This Issue: With a G.I.Joe team sent to rescue the Baroness and Flint from their captors in Czechoslovakia, they finally start to work as a team with the October Guard and Destro's men. What will happen, though, when the patchwork team accomplishes its mission, and suddenly doesn't need each others' help anymore? Also, Lady Jaye lets Flint know what she thinks of the time he spent with the Baroness." And read the prior issues' solicits as well. Wait, what?! Finally, because I got really curious if there was more to this, I did a Google image search for Flint and Baroness. It turned up all sorts of shipping. These are just a sampling. https://www.deviantart.com/cric/art/...ness-504596105 https://www.amazon.com/Joe-Baroness-.../dp/B07HPGVQ8J https://www.amazon.com/Combat-Heroes.../dp/B001OOCF9A Are there that many people who actually think Flint and Baroness are hot together? So, what, they're the Batman and Catwoman of G. I. Joe?

Flint's a playboy, Destro is straight pimpin'. Lady Jaye and Baroness are both bombshell spies. Seems naturally for them to be a couple of swinger couples.
Honestly I don't see them being an actual pairing, since I like my Baroness to stay bad, but for the two of them to flirt when they come into conflict? Pretty natural given their characters, and Jaye and Baroness do seem like foils of each other (more so than Scarlett and Baroness, to me). |

Looking at your title, I thought there was a Flint/Baroness classified 2-pack that was shipping soon. I guess I'm getting old!!!

There's a Beach-Head/Cover Girl ship that makes less sense. I cannot even recall them interacting in the vintage cartoon or comic.

Why does anyone ship any non-canonical relationship?

Makes much more sense to me to use the correct word but I don’t think that’s popular!

The same reason we've all decided at one point or another that, say, a Skystriker fuel tank is a bomb, or a manned turret they forgot to put controls on is automated, or that Flash isn't wearing an umpire vest... it's fun, brings our own persona flavors and preferences into the game, and sometimes works better than the canon idea. |

Y'know, never thought about it before but this is a ship I can actually get behind. Do it 'Out of Sight' style, where it can't possibly work in the context of their professions but there's just a thing there anyway.
