My brother is watching the MASS device and commented that some of the characters and vehicles looked very much like Herb Trimpe's art.
Does anyone know Mr. Trimpe worked with Sunbow or if Marvel handed over some of his work? Last edited by Ako Roshi; 04-02-2020 at 11:31 PM.. |

As far as I know Russ Heath did the character designs for the show. Heath also drew GI JOE #24.

Having soaked up every bit of GI Joe media I could find over the past year, I have come to a shocking (at least for me) conclusion ...
The five episodes of "Arise, Serpentor, Arise" form, by far, the best GI Joe movie ever made (animated or otherwise). Now, I know many in the "olive drab" crowd take issue with the more fantastical elements, but imo, ASA has just the proper amount of sci-fi. And the "Raiders of the Lost Ark" meets "Frankenstein" plot is super exciting (even slightly scary at times). Plus the script does a great job juggling such a large cast (of action figures to sell). For example, the scenes of Thrasher & Monkeywrench auditioning for the Dreadnoks are as strong an introduction as any characters could possibly receive. There's even a decent amount of diversity, and strong roles for women (especially Zarana). My only question is how the hell does Dr Mindbender have video footage of the ACTUAL Genghis Khan & Ivan the Terrible? Oh, and as far as Serpentor himself ... if this was his only animated appearance, the character would likely be viewed in a much more favorable light. Seeing as he was pretty badass, imo.
