I'd use something along the lines of the Retaliation Joe Trooper as a design for G.I. Joe. Moreover, I'd steal Snake Eyes' thunder by keeping Joe unmasked and his identity classified, effectively making him an avatar.

I'm not sure how practical that is, but this is your thread and certainly fits your penchant for helmeted/masked figures.

I would dial back on his specialties. Unlike Sunbow, where every Joe seemed capable of piloting a Skystriker, or LH's tendency to turn every character he liked into a ninja, Joe should be the epitome of a well-trained, boots on the ground, career soldier. Lose the beard. Let him be able to navigate, weapons proficient, able to communicate. If we're talking a combination of exisiting Joes, I would mingle the skills of Hawk, Stalker, Rock-n-roll, Outback, Recondo, and Breaker. None of the showboat personas, not someone who is a better medic than Doc, but gets knocked out like Duke. From a live-action standpoint, the character Val Kilmer portrayed in Spartan comes to mind. He was quick to adapt even if his support network was near or far, "one riot, one Ranger."

Haha! Thanks. Scruff is fine and unavoidable. I'm a fan of the square-jawed, strong-chinned hero, and I think the ladies along the way would be tripping over themselves more when they see him clean-cut in uniform. I'm not sure what the actual Army regulations are for beards.

Not so much apprehension as clarification. To put Joe (Colton) in a helmet, there's still a paper trail of names who can identify him and they would become targets of his enemies. This is true of any soldier. So, unless there's a KIA cover story, or unless they go comic-book-extreme and kill everyone who knows him, there's always going to be someone who can identify the man under the helmet. A superior can order him to remove the helmet and the whole project collapses. Right?

I can subscribe to an isolated suspension of disbelief, I guess. It doesn't make sense to me why CC -- who is not an unintelligent villain -- has never sent Zartan or Zarana in to pose as someone who would know the secret to learn who CLASSIFIED really is. I know LH would point to some "superior ninja sense" that SE has to "just know" a fraud, but it doesn't seem plausible to keep one identity classified from a terrorist force that outnumbers the counter-terrorist unit created to defeat them.

Basically, a combination of Duke and Snake Eyes, and you have a bad MF.
