GI Joe: Renegades was described by it's creators as GI Joe year one.
They said that Resolute was the ultimate GI Joe cartoon, but that they wanted to do something different, something that hadn't been done before. GI Joe will start as a core group of Joes, new Joes will be added, and other Joes will be met as the series progresses. The Joes are on the move in this one, and the first 4 seasons worth of episodes have been arced out. We will learn how certain Joes got their signature scars and how Snake Eyes lost his voice. (He'll have it when the series starts!) Things are not what they seem in this one. It has been written with adults in mind, and it is assumed that kids will watch. Joes and Cobras will have signature weapons, and vehicles will be treated like characters. As the series progresses characters and vehicles will evolve. The series will focus on classic characters, being introduced for the first time, so don't expect any new characters. The Vamp, Timber, and Snow Job were all mentioned as appearing in a round about way. They said that if Joes' job was in the snow it would only make sense for the right Joe to do that job in the snow... Snow Job. Episodes 7 and 8 focus on Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow and will feature Jinx. The thought of more media featuring the pair was met with boos by those in attendance. The animation will be 2D and inspired by pulp novel covers from the 50's which featured an emphasis on light source. Snake Eyes looked like he did in Resolute with baggy pants. Duke looked buff, had green pants and a tan shirt with some kind of white/ gray body armor on over his shirt. Cobra Commander will have his classic mask and nanomites were described as the meticlurians of the GI Joe universe. We'll get 2 waves of PoC followed up by Renegades toys after that. |

Love the sound of it so far but like others I am getting tired of some particular rehashes like the SE vs SS drama. I still love these guys but we need new stories about them. I hope they don't do flashbacks with the Hard Master and such. Not a big fan of nanomites either. When did these become synonymous w/ GI Joe?

No, the nanomites aren't going to be there.
They're the Midi-Chlorians of Joe (as the panelists called them). Meaning they showed up once, won't be mentioned again.

So I wouldn't get too hung up on the nanomite thing.. But a BIG piece of info left out is that the core helmer for the series also worked on Roughnecks:Starship Troopers. Owning the series on DVD, I can readily vouch for the strong story telling a great characters. If GI Joe is HALF as good, it could easily stand as the best GI Joe cartoon we've ever gotten.

Perhaps I spelled meticlurians wrong?
Yeah, nanomites were described as the Midi-Chlorians of the GI Joe universe, which should be considered good news to anyone who hated RoC because as we all know; Midi-Chlorians (pronounced meticlurians) were the single worst addition to the Star Wars universe. Making the comparison is like admitting it wasn't a good idea, and it could then be assumed that they wouldn't be included in the new toon. My interpretation of the panel was that the creators of the toon had spent some time on Hisstank (which one had actually copped too in their presentation) and were playing to the crowd. Also; Gyre was referred to as the guy in the goggles during the presentation. Last edited by CV2.0; 05-02-2010 at 01:51 PM.. Reason: forced by nanomites! |
