Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't it true that Snake eyes and Storm Shadow had absolutely no relationship in the original ARAH cartoon series?
They weren't brothers or anything like that right? If I'm not mistaken...wasn't Spirit more of Storm Shadow's rival in the cartoon? I remember the episode where they sort of have a showdown, and then they have to work together..right? I had a debate with someone about this.. They were claiming that Snake eyes, and Storm Shadow were refered to as Brothers/rivals in the original cartoon series. I'm almost 100% positive that they weren't. In the Comics YES...but not in the Cartoon. The guy I had the debate with was saying that he remembered an episode where Storm Shadow rescues Snake eyes, or vice versa. Was there ever an episode where one of them rescues the other? I'm talking about the Sunbow series. Can someone confirm this? Thanks Tankers.

I think both comics and cartoons were content in making relationships based on whatever toys were new and available or which characters remained popular regardless.
Quick Kick suddenly became a rival for Storm Shadow in the cartoon when he showed up! I think the Spirit/SS rivalry was in the comics as well. I'm no help as far as your actual question though since I can't recall ever seeing SS and SE even in the same room. But since their relationship seems to be common knowledge for a lot of people who haven't cared about Joes since they were kids, I can't imagine they all picked it up from the comics. |

I appreciate the reply, but that was of absolutey no help.

You are correct - Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes' connection was played up in the comics and not at all in the cartoon. I can't actually remember a time when they faced off in the toon or had any meaningful interaction.
But like Snakeyes22 said, in the toon SS faced off against both Spirit and Quick Quick in the toon. .... |

I figure someone on here must have just watched the Shout factory Footlocker box set so the episodes might be fresh in their head. Did anyone just have a Sunbow DVD marathon, that can absolutely confirm this?

They never had any conflicts or communication in the Sunbow series at all. There were no episodes based around the SE/SS story line, that was all in the comics created by Larry Hama. I've watched the episodes many times on the Rhino releases, not any of the episodes have them having a battle. Like the guys before me said only Spirit and Quick Kick faced off against SS.

Ooh... if you didn't specifically say Sunbow in your bet, I'd say the bet may kind of be a draw based on a technicality. Casual fan may consider DIC a continuation of the original series, based on the same toy line and all.
Sorry I was no help, more trying to throw thoughts out there to help stir memories of other posters. |
