No offence taken, and it's not a big deal either way, as I think we can all agree that knowing/speculating about the details about Kwinn's life prior to GI Joe encountering him probably adds precious little to the overall composite picture we have of the character.
I was never terribly fond of Kwinn, to be honest, although my disinterest in him probably stems from my associating the character with the uneven pacing of the issues during GI Joe's second year of publication, and not because of anything inherent in the character. I liked him during his first appearance in issue #2, it had a particularly "pulp-y" feel to the story, like something out of the pre-Comics Code Authority era, but his bickering interactions with Dr. Venom in his later appearances just kept dragging on and on and on, and I actually felt a substantial measure of relief when they finally killed each other. Even re-reading those issues in TPB form, I can't shake the feeling that it seemed like a two or three issue story that Hama extended to fill nine months of publication.
