Um actually it was Storm Shadow who infiltrated Cobra to find his Uncle's killer not Snake Eyes. But I enjoyed the read.

I'm glad you enjoyed it brother!
As for snake eyes, I was playing the "vow of silence until he avenges his master" angle instead of the helicopter crash or arrow explanations. I picked and chose which canon I used and which I tactically ignored based on what suited the angle I was taking in the article. "The best lie has elements of the truth" and all that lol! Thanks for checking it out |

Thissss isss utter bolderdash and poppycock! No way a cartoon could influence children in any way. I'm surrounded by incompetent fools! (and now back to work on my plans to enslave the human race) =D
Seriously though, how many of us didn't want to at least join the military after this exposure? Between Joes and the movie Top Gun, I was sure I wanted to be at least working on the flight deck of some carrier. |

WHAT? Baroness, Dr. Mindbender, brave Xomat and Tomax... you won't let Gregory's treacherous assassination of my character go unchallenged, will you?

I mean, I did try to follow in my idol's footsteps...I applied for a job at a used car dealership (where all the best terrorists start out)...I just didn't have a colorful enough vocabulary I guess :/

Lol I did too! Then I joined the military and the rest is history.
I actually edited the article one more time to tone down the language while retaining all references to demon sexual parts,and care bear splinter cells( complete with curse words). In all fairness, it's purest way to speak of such things. Last edited by Gregory Fricker; 01-06-2015 at 02:40 PM.. |

I don't know about evil but ,it did give me a weird fascination with grape soda, and chocolate covered doughnuts.

Interesting read. I don't know how serious you were in writing it. I had favorite characters from both sides, Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow being the top two because I was addicted to Kung-Fu movies at the time...not because they were faceless.
I feel that Hasbro most likely put CC on the packages because he was the face of Cobra. Cobra didn't have as many individual named characters as Joe. Take out troops. Joes are all special forces, the best of the best world wide. So it didn't matter what Joe was put on a box. Cobra on the other hand, had to have Storm Shadow, CC, Destro and the twins on the boxes, because they were Cobras main characters. I can tell you one thing Greg, I usually don't read through more then 1 or 2 paragraphs of an article, so that should tell you something. (I read the whole thing) :) |

The only standard I went by was that the information is technically true, even if only coincidentally, enough to be enjoyable. I was going more for the "oh crap...could this be true??!?!" rather than an actual factual article. Just a fun ride really. Only intended to point out some coincidental oddities.
