I don't get how folks can be so insistent that issue #1 obscured photo is a white male. I can make out a black Afro, and otherwise no distinguishing details.

Shooter is a female and gets a good deal of development in G.I. Joe: First Salvo (available on amazon), so that's what I'm voting.

I hear former Marvel Editor-in-Chief Jim Shooter has male genitals, and I know he had black hair at the time. So there's the real Shooter.

At the time, he had long hair in a ponytail and acne scars. Neither present in the Issue #1 picture. Nor can you see below the head and shoulders. That pic of "Shooter" could easily be either Jim or a black lady. But I think it looks more like a black lady.

And everybody knows that is the only existing photo of Jim Shooter. And everybody knows only black ladies have black hair, right?

Hama has publicly stated that the nod to Jim shooter was not done by him and he considers it an error. Error is actually putting it nicely. He seemed quite irritated that such an injoke happened. Shooter from declassified was created to specifically fix that error.

I don't think Jim Shooter had a ponytail until after he left Marvel. This is more his Marvel look below.
There's no way that picture of Shooter in issue #1 is anything but caucasian. The skin is whiter than anyone else on the screen. |

..and the shoulders are as wide on the screen as all the men- The only woman is depicted much smaller than everyone else. Hama may not have appreciated the joke that the artist threw in there but the intent was Jim Shooter- retconning out that little easter-egg 20+ yrs later doesn't change that intent.

If you'll note, that spot of skin is pure white, so more likely the reflection of a light source off of dark skin. All the caucasians have pink skin in this panel.
