I don't think I understand the question. Do you mean how do we organize our filecards?
If so, I organize them by faction (Joe / Cobra / IG) then by character code name, so Dusty would be under "D" |

I manage my filecards Joe/Cobra/other. Then my JOE Team filecards I have them by rank then by real last name.
So, since Dusty has been referred to having a last name of Tadur and Rudat. I just wondered how everyone explained that loophole. Kinda like the Lifeline and Mercer Last Name conundrum. Did DOD/JOE Office create this fake persona of Dusty and his grandmother to keep their real identities secret and thats why the news report claimed Specialist Ronald Rudat was a traitor. While his real name was Ronald Tadur.

Was it listed on a filecard as Rudat?
Lifeline is two seperate characters, Lifeline I and Lifeline II (who if I had would get renamed). Mercer would be under the other name (not Stratton, and it's escaping me right now). Stratton is his real name, the other is the new name to hide his identity from Cobra and others. I don't really file my filecards away in an organized manner. :(

slightly off topic but i know you guys will have an answer for me- what other countries have a "national" superhero like Captain America? I know the UK has Union Jack and I just found out about Canada's Guardian today. Australia?

To me Rudat is Dusty's last name.
Tadur is just the guy who worked at Hasbro who happened to come up with many of the figure concepts over the years. I always filed by Job title which was is big black bold type. So dusty is filed under Desert Trooper, between Desert Paratrooper, and someone else Skidmark? I guess. Since it has never been explained for Mercer, I pretend that Stratton was his fake identity when he first got out and Cecil is his real identity. Still doesn't explain how he goes from E-5 to E-9. (I pretend he was undercover the whole time and once fully reinstated he was given his appropriate rank)

So I think a good topic for a round-robin discussion would be Starduster. He was a pretty cool figure from '87 but one that seems to receive very little fanfare today. I don't know if he's ever appeared in the cartoons or even the comics (at least not in the Marvel series if I remember correctly) so he's one of the least developed characters but he has great potential.
The silly circus background and jetpack aside, his duties involve recon and helicopter assault, he's an actual Ranger (not just Ranger qualified) and a sergeant to boot. For some reason I've always made him a door gunner/crew chief like Airborne because hey, someone's gotta do it, but really he could do so much more. Why don't we see him on more recon teams or assault squads? Does he appear in any Joe media? How do you employ Starduster in your Joeverse? Is he just another backdrop or does he ever take center stage? Who is John Galt (just kidding)? |
