To celebrate their 200th issue, Wizard Magazine had a cover feature of the "200th Greatest Characters of all Time", and Snake Eyes, GI Joe's own silent ninja, snagged 12th!!! Beating out heroes like the Hulk, Punisher, Iron Man, Thor, Daredevil, Robin, Nightwing, Colossus, Cyclops, Emma Frost and countless others, Snake Eyes was beaten by ONLY the Batman, Wolverine, Spiderman, Magneto, Joker, Hellboy, the Thing, Superman, Captain America, and two others (can't remember off the top of my head)!
Cobra Commander himself was 50, beating out the likes of Venom, Darkseid, Sabertooth and the Juggernaut as one of the world of fiction's worst and most conniving villians!
Congrats to the two posterboys! It seems that GI Joe is really entering the public eye, as not even any Transformers or Star Wars characters made the list!

Posts: n/a | Flint was a better cartoon character than comic character, besides at the end of the marvel run they started calling the whole book "gi joe in small letters" "STARRING SNAKE EYES" he is what made the book click from his secret history, to his unveiled face, to his complex relationship with storm shadow and scarlett. yeah i see him 12th if not top ten

And NOT ONE Transformers character as well? I could MAYBE understand it if a G.I. Joe character didn't make it also...*maybe they weren't going for that sorta thing* but geez!! Not saying some of those picks aren't noteworthy, but overall horrible list.
