In Name Only - GI Joe

Learning nothing from New Coke, Hasbro took GI JOE to the extreme!

Extremely stupid and unnecessary.

No Joes I Know-

Were we supposed to confuse that redhead for Scarlett and the crouching guy for Snake-Eyes?

These new Joes battled SKAR and Iron Klaw instead of Cobra.

He's no Cobra Commander.

From what I understand this Dark Horse series was based on the lame cartoon "sequel" to GI Joe: A Real American Hero.

I know that the Joes have gone through changes before, from 12-inch action doll of the 60's to 3¾-inch action figure superstar of the 80's, but this just seemed so wrong.

Catfight! - Lady and a Tramp

Scratch her eyes out! Pull her hair!

This is one of the reasons I love the GI Joe comic. You never saw this on the cartoon.

Just a little trash talk to get thinks started.

Wasn't Lady Jaye some duchess or other related to Destro?

Ding-ding! The fight bell has rung.

We're just gonna stand back and watch.

With no clear winner, you decide...Yo Joe or COBRA?
