sorry, but RAH or its concept doesn't have just one backstory, but, of course, acknowledging that would mean you wouldn't have anything to moan about. the comics were a continuation or based on the Marvel run, so it's interest was strictly in continuing the story that were started. that in no way equates to the concept of Joe vs Cobra being beholden to all of the little details that were used. what vast majority? it wasn't in S6 I don't believe, or Spy Troops or VvV, or the original cartoon. sure, it was in the comic, which had the longest run of all, but unless it is your assertion that was equally because of the SE's/Scarlett romance as the concept of Joe vs Cobra, the romance is just a tiny detail that is part of the comics tale, not a detail that defines those characters or the brand. WOW...did i touch a nerve? are you the guy who LOVED the tv show? i liked it too...BUT, i saw it as fluff...the icing on the cake...always saw the comic as THE real story ( of fiction ) simply due to the lack of cheese factor AND the more realistic approach. as far as Snake Eyes and Scarlett vs Duke and Scarlett ( i see this as much more likely than Scarlett / ripcord )...ask the majority of fans what they think... hasbro has even mentioned it in their files...is THAT authentic enough? Duke and Scarlett were together in the first miniseries about the mass device, and not much after that. 3 different comic book companies have used it. 'reloaded' is a different continuity, and it's SE / Scarlett... G.I. Joe vs Transformers...different continuity...SE / Scarlett... it's been hinted at in Sigma 6, so you were in error on that. the ONLY place it isn't Snake Eyes and Scarlett is in the cartoon. the cartoon lasted what, 4 years? 5 tops? comic continuity...'82 - '93...then what, '03 -Present? it's MUCH more established than you're giving it credit for. his origin, why he's mute, why he's disfigured, are attached to her. how many reasons do you want? am i going to bitch and moan forever? nope...i'm gonna trust Destro...he says he's seen the script. the reason i was upset was about that, and the 'Real American Hero' not being on there...the 'international team'...i think they're overdoing that. i don't want to sit back and HOPE hollywood gets it right. they actually DO listen sometimes...so, when the topic comes up, i'll voice my opinion. it appears many share my opinion. |

Still, though, I know what you're getting at. I do think Marvel cares more about their characters than Hasbro.

cynthia, i saw some of the old spiderman stuff, and i saw the punisher flick. even one of the captain americas.
those were done in the days before they had the big blockbusters with their characters. they've treated their characters pretty well lately, well, with the exception of daredevil being a blood thirsty pill popping vigilante freak. hey, wouldn't it be funny with scenes of him flirting with scarlett until her ninja b/f walks up? |

So Scarlett does not use the older brother line on Snake Eyes and never kisses Ripcord?
