Hashtag doesn't seem any worse or better than DDP's Firewall. On paper very similar concepts. I think both are pretty silly ideas. I wasn't online in the Joe world when Firewall debuted. Was she hated as mush as Hashtag is? If so that makes sense, but if not - why?

I could care less about who is knocking boots and what they did in the past. If anything passing Scarlett and Cover Girl around the group is more modern.
The Hashtag thing is really bad. I hope this story does not somehow bring her into an important role in the book because of what goes down at the end of issue #1.

the difference is that the idea and introduction of her was clever and far more logical than hashtag. she found the existence of the government's nanomite technology and understood what it could do and was arrested for it, but then when they realized they needed her knowledge to help stop them the newly reinstated Joe team brought her in. It wasn't a choice for them really, they needed her. She also was not front in center and promoted as this groundbreaking character like what they seem to be doing with Hashtag.

So the core team is made up of these 6 G.I.Joe's with Duke in the lead. Hashtag is the teams official connection to the media. She is a college student who owns a popular blog and is enrolled in R.O.T.C. at her college. She is also an ARMY brat, unarmed civilian attached to the most elite counter terrorist unit the USA has. It makes no sense at all why they would allow a teenager to enter a war zone to directly blog about it to the world. Absolutely Ridiculous!

Cover Girl is the village bicycle.
Hashtag. LOL. Diversity = skills, why isn't Spirit on the roster? Or Torpedo? Or Zap? Where's Snake-Eyes? Everytime Snake-Eyes isn't there, another character should be asking "where's Snake-Eyes?" |

On the Hashtag v. Firewall thing, also, Firewall was recruited as part of her parole, and that has happened quite often in real life, where teenaged hackers who got in trouble ended up working for the CIA and/or FBI.
As for the use or practicality of the character, and the whole question of why invent someone new when you already have someone like that, what about Scoop? |

Devils Due had it right IMO. IDW just doesn't do it for me.
