I'd like to see the O13 get their own mini-series or movie.

I have always wanted to see that too but it will never happen. This is a joe focused site and most of the people here don't even give a shit about the O13. I still think to this day though that those first 15 or so issues that featured the 013 had the best characterization by Hama. After that there were some strong personalities but it was so diluted by him having to introduce new characters over and over at the helm of the toy company. I can only imagine if he could have focused on those original characters longer as if they were the x men or something.

I'd like to add another sticking point: except for one panel in issue ten, those first twenty issue were devoid of ninjas. While issue 21 was marvelously executed...it was a harbinger of things to come. Namely, the gradual erosion of G.I. Joe into G.I. Ninja. |

Quick Kick for the sole purpose of giving him a uniform and Grunt because he was my first JOE.

I agree with your analysis.

I'd keep it totally retro. Make it the Sunbow mini-series we never got in 1982.

Really, I'd love to see a GI Joe: New Recruits like the X-Men did with New Mutants and introduce a bunch of new Joes. I'm honestly tired of the ninja thing which just seems stupid and a relic of the 80s. I am also tired of Snake Eyes, Duke, Scarlett, etc.
I'd like to see more of Helix, Falcon, Beachead, Asp, Freestyle, Agent Faces, Bombstrike, even though Wraith is dead, I would have loved more of him. I actually want to add his pic as my avatar. How do I do that?? The female Snake Eyes is awful...
