I think Hasbro is trying to standardize the ROC logo as the definitive GI Joe logo, at least for the next few years. In addition, Ripcord's name in the book is listed as Wallace Weems.

Oh, OK. Thanks for the explanation. It just seemed odd to me...like Hasbro made you use it. That makes sense then.

Hey there. That was an artistic choice that Bill and I made. The truth was, we wanted a symbol that we could put in the corner of the file cards, and RAH didn't offer much we could use. We toyed around with both the star from the logo (which survived as the Oktober Guard file-card) and the Japanese RAH logo, which shows up on the TOC. It's the cool looking eagle. Ultimately, neither one worked all that well. We needed something that would balance well with the Cobra logo. The RoC logo worked very well artistically, so we used it.

I liked the book but was disappointed in the spelling errors.
Daina as Dania misspelled and javelin as javeline to name two. I remember getting a Star Trek Voyager unofficial episode guide that was peppered with spelling errors and how I thought it was so unprofessional. Spellcheck is unreliable too because of homonyms and I see more and more grammatical and spelling errors in publications. I look forward to the next volume, but watch the editing.

So I picked up this book this weekend, well actually my daughter picked it up for me as an X-mas gift. I had a chance to take a look at it before she took it from me and hid it, and I must say that it is way cooler than I even thought it'd be. I can't wait to actually sit down and peruse every single page...and then go through it again!
I can't wait for a volume II!
