One of my favorite gi joe characters of all time is Darklon. I don't know if it's the mask or the fact that the character is a complete mystery. But did Darklon have his own army or was he just like my cousin Megan? You know an individual who thinks they have power.
What is the story with this guy? Was it a rejected Cobra La design or something? |

I would like to know this too.
I've always liked the character, but figured there was more to him than what we were given.

In my Joe-Verse I use the ROC MARS Troopers and Serpent Armor Viper Commandos as Darklonian soldiers and Darklonian shock troopers, respectively.
I also use a VvV black and gold Sand Viper as a modern Darklon. In the comic he ruled the country of Darklonia. I can't remember if it was ever explicitly stated he was related to Destro, but he was an arms dealer of sorts as I recall. I don't remember what his soldiers looked like or if they were Iron Grenadiers.

Him and Overlord... I never got what Hasbro was trying to do with them. 2 supposed "Leader" characters with lame little vehicles.

I'd love to know what his soldiers looked like.

He's interesting and has a ton of potential for Story-lines.
It'd be nice if it were created that Darklon and Overlord had been feuding separately w/out the "interference" of any JOEs of COBRA forces. Two villains and their forces feuding...then the JOEs and COBRA get into the mix somehow. |

I'm in the process of making Darklon's army. I made Darklon, but updated the design a bit using the PoC CC head and Baroness hair.
I think it was a cool character that they should have done more stuff with. |

Yeah, I dug darklon's mold except for the 25lbs of frag grenades attached to his leg. And the colors, the color scheme was out there. But that mask was awesome! He's on my list of characters to custom up in my RoC verse.
