I was thinking that maybe Rex was power mad his whole life, not just after he got injured in the bunker. If that's the case, maybe the Baroness was always evil too. They could have befriended Duke, her seducing him with the intent of having him be the field leader of Cobra eventually. The nanomites in her system could have just been put there to protect her from illness and interrogation. The whole story they told Duke when he was captured was just a ruse. Now that Duke is dead, there's no need for the Baroness to act or be in prison anymore.

What Ford was saying was retcon just as much as my idea. Rex was not powermad before he became The Doctor/Cobra Commander. Ford's idea is that GI joe 3 would retcon Rex and Baroness into being power hungry all along.

Rex was powermad before becoming The Doctor.
That was the whole reason he ended up trapped in the bunker with "mindbender". He saw the nanomites and realized the power they had and what he could do with it. The RoC novelization ended with the Baroness telling Duke that well she was under nanomite control and did evil things, she found she liked it.

I REALLY want them to address RoC's Mindbender. I think that's a very cool plot that needs to come to light. I love the idea of Mindbender and CC being simpatico. It's a nice deviation from the cartoon. Also, I still want to know if Destro was aware that the Doctor wasn't Mindbender. I assume the intention was that Rex simply replaced him, but if not, think of the backstory there! Did Mindbender teach him all of this stuff and then Rex betrays him?? I want to know! I didn't really get that from RoC. He was depicted as a science nerd who was wowed by the technology. His monologue toward the end indicates that he did it all because Duke left him to die in the bunker (which was dumb, but whatevs). |

Destro and Baroness are likely going to be aligned as Destro was betrayed by his partner Cobra Commander and the Baroness was betrayed by her brother by brainwashing her and killing her fiancee, they will certainly become an item with some or subtle romance written and acted in. They won't do a full retcon on the Baroness her history will be kept from Rise of Cobra. Stephen Sommers and Lorenzo Di Bonaventura who are Executive Producers/Creators of the Film Series created the continuity/universe this G.I. JOE is set in.
M.A.R.S. Industries will likely return along with the formation of the Iron Grenadiers in G.I. JOE 3. I'm going with logic on this one. Last edited by PAK; 04-04-2013 at 09:26 PM.. |

Baroness can maintain loyalty to her brother with Duke out of the picture. Of course, she's still resentful over the whole Nanomite thing but while she'd never kill CC, she probably wouldn't mind taking away from him. I think the comics had an arc where she had to undergo facial reconstructive surgery? We could have Major Bludd have a sloppy rescue attempt that maims his arm and ruins her face to get around the whole Sienna Miller recasting thing.

Heres my idea of where to go with this for JOE 3
MARS vs COBRA Civil War type deal - JOES caught in the middle

I think CC is firmly grounded in Rex now. I'm still amazed by what they showed us under the mask in Retaliation and at how much he looked like JGL.
