I always think to myself, "The original G.I. Joe was silly. The second series can't be as bad as I remember it." And of course, every time I see it I think, "Nope. I was wrong. It sucks."
wether the show or the comics, when thomas was with the joe team he made "snakes" look like a fool, but when tommy is with cobra its the other way around...
no sweat snakes i knoww yur do the same for me! sounds like a right prick, friends?? crap!!. cobra storm shadow version1 is much better evil and full of hatred for snake eyes.
It's his V4 costume. If I remember correctly DIC tried to follow the comics (which Sunbow ignored) and Snake-Eyes look like this once, same for Storm Shadow and I think they tried to get Snake-Eyes and Scarlett's relationship right (Sunbow again ignored that, using Duke instead), as much as they could 4 a cartoon.
Wow this is crap compared to the movie. Knowing what the old show was like, I'm almost afraid to admit to being obsessed with GI Joe. This is cornier than my dad.
wtf!!??!! snake eyes is to cool 2 fall! and what up wit him an storm shadow bein frens an da stupid kindergarden hokey pokey music!!!!!?????!!!!!! AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! THIS IS FUCKING TERRIBLE!!!
You do know that Storm Shadow was only a Cobra because he was brainwashed depending on the storyline. The other one is he joined so he could rise through the rankings and find out who killed his uncle.
@MedicalOfficer LOL true, but that's just a bad drawing!! he supposed to be a night creep (rock patterns) not that funny zebra looking things hahahahahaah
sorry ..I just love the joes Im kind of a collector hehe
After discovering that cobra destroyed his ninja clan, storm shadow joined the Joes. in the real movie, it's another ninja possing as storm shadow, like the evil sub Zero in mortal Kombat, and the good sub zero in mortal kombat 2.
Storm Shadow is a Japanese American born in San Francisco and spent much of his life in Japan learning the art of the Ninja at his family's clan He left to serve the American army in Vietnam and returned to the clan afterwards. He then joined Cobra after his uncle was killed.
The voice Actor Scott McNeil however is Australian (though he currently lives in Vancouver BC), he's a very prolific voice actor who has a lot of awesome voices.
I think this came out around a time when the popular shows and toys were Ninja Turtles and Power Rangers, shows where the kids wanted to hear action heroes talk slang.
I don't get it? I love MASK and a lot of toons that DIC put out but DIC and GI Joe Suck! It was like putting a real dick in GI Joe. I remember laughing with buddy's at school when DIC was being said at the end of shows. Who's sick idea was it to call it DIC and then have that little kid say it?
snake eyes and storm shadows are secretly brothers dudes lol iv been knowing that since i was a kid dont you guys watch the show and pay attension,Storm shadow said it in a episode
They aren't literally brothers, Snake Eyes is white and Storm Shadow is asian. They're like "brothers" because they came from the same ninja clan(arashikage). This video was incredibly gay by the way.
In the original cartoon series Storm Shadow had a respectful relationship with Quick Kick so it isn't unprecedented. Did he ever team with Joes in that one though?
This was the DIC Gijoe series. Hasbro went cheap and went with a cheaper animation company following Gijoe the movie in 1987.Before they were using SUnbow Productions. The DIC series ran 2 season starting with a miniseries called Operation Dragonfire in 1989. There was a few good episodes from this series. but overrall the DIC cartoons are what destroyed the Gijoe cartoon Franchise.
If you liked Sunbow YOU were the one on the crack. I own them all too. But they were very VERY badly written with poor premises(Iceburg being turned into a whale) poor science (you cannot get memories and skill out of DNA) and voice acting wthat was either over the top (Cobra Commander screeching like a little girl) or wooden and stiff (Anything said by Flint)
Take off the rose colored glasses. Ive been with GI Joe since the beginning So I know what works and what doesnt. And Sunbow was BAD.
Seeing as how you have considerable difficulty capitalizing your sentences and spelling simple words like "you" correctly, it's understandable you would think Sunbow was good. And you're right, Sunbow IS good... For me to POOP on!
The only true quality Joe fiction was the original Marvel comics run, when it was written by Mr GI Joe himself Larry Hama. Nothing else ever came close. Not DiC, Not the company that did the two CGI Joe movies. Not Devil's Due'e rag and sure as Hell not Sunbow.
I don't know about you, Reverend. But, the Sunbow version of G.I. Joe is regarded as one of the greatest cartoons. I feel you on the comics, though. The Marvel Comics run of G.I. Joe was good. Devil's Due run is great too...
I kinda agree. The Sunbow GI Joes were pretty awesome, also, the movie wasn't all THAT bad. Yes, the comics are #1, but still, give credit where credit is sorta due.
eh, you gotta remember that there were strict rules that children's television had to follow and I honestly think that both cartoons had their strengths and weaknesses. That said, why couldn't they have given Cobra Commander the used car salesman origin? Seriously, that's one of the best origins ever thought of for a villian.
WHat's great about the Car salesman origin is that it's actually a FEASIBLE scenario, if somewhat unlikely. I can beleive that a brilliant but paranoid man can raise a strong following with just guile and ingenuity. Using loopholes in the laws to raise funds.
That is SERIOUSLY scary. CC is a combination between L Ron Hubbard (Formation of Scientology) and the Unabomber's paranoia that the govt was out to get the little guy. Hama knew his shit.
Snake Eyes should have kicked that "Night Creeps" ass. Not let Storm Shadow or as I'm sure he was called in this cartoon "Stormy" at one point interfere and make him look weak.
Haha. Rather than get better with age GI Joe went down the drain. It could have been so fucking cool. With characters like Serpentor, Snake Eyes, Zartan and Storn Shadow how could they have gone wrong. But they did. The comic was much better than the cartoon.
Dumbing down is so easy to do. I remember in this DIC cartoon that Duke is dragged around shopping with Scarlet. Scarlet is supposed to kick ass and tell Clutch to shut the fuck up. Not go shopping.
I wish I was making that up. I have no idea which episode it was. Just keep looking for DIC GI Joe on youtube and you'll find it eventually. The winner of the cherry on top of the turd sundae has to be a clip that has Cobra Commander and Metal Head getting their asses kicked by school kids. Mercer is in it too somewhere.
Found it. The Chunnel episode. However I'm a little impressed DIC included one of the October Guard into the show (even though Big Ben and Big Bear sound like stereotypes).
It also seems like DIC couldn't afford a lot of the voice actors. Many episodes have non-speaking cameos by both Joes and Cobra. And one episode (Victory at Volcania) I noticed features the Baroness and Zarana throughout BUT neither speaks at all.
I had such a crush on Storm Shadow when I was little. According to what I remember from the comics, Storm Shadow is Japanese-American and served in Vietnam with Snake Eyes, who is American of no particular ethnicity. They formed a close bond in Nam. SShadow had strong ties to his family in Japan and went there upon returning from Vietnam, and Snake Eyes later joined him as he lost his whole family in an accident. So they are brothers, but not blood family.
Thats pretty much it. The Marvel comics by Hama were the greatest. The cartoons and even Devils Due comics don't even come close. Hama wrote GI Joe like he was writing about his children. Devil's Due has been writing them like cheap fanfics.
I've been trying to track down the Hama GI Joes, as a matter of fact. I think they were collected in tpb form a few years ago. I haven't read the Devils Due comis, but I have seen how jobbing writers can take a great idea and make it boring, dumb, or downright ludicrous.
There are five trade paperbacks of the first 50 issues released by Marvel back in 2001. Some appear to be at Amazon and you might try Ebay. There are also a number of Devils Due paperbacks so be sure to look for MARVEL
IDW has begun republishing the Larry Hama issues since they got the license. The first 50 issues (collected into 5 trades) are out now. IDW is publishing issues 51 to 60 in November. Hopefully they'll get to all 155 issues.
Incidentally IDW is also publishing a "Best of ..." series revolving around various characters. Some of these trades have issues that haven't been collected yet.
Yeah. When Hama killed off characters there was actually some impact to them. When DD did it you could hear then snickering "OMFG! We killed somebody! We're k3w1 and 133t d00d!" For an issue or two they even brought in characters never before seen in comics like Big Boa and Tracker simply to kill them off in the same page they first showed up. They tried to ape Cobra Commanders son Billy by trying to give Destro and Zartan long lost children. Cheap jobbers.
Man talk about the old memories Still watch it and prefer it over Signma Six.
Snake Eyes is a lot more agile, smarter and ruthless than that. And Storm Shadow never Called Snake Eyes Snakes. It was always Sword brother or Silent one ir his real name.
I just hope they make a cartoon series like Devil's Due publishing and not this Signma Six crap.
snake eyes is a blonde blue eyed american (disfigured in battle) and storm shadow is japanese ofcourse... snake eyes was trained by stormshadows family which are descendents of a long line of ninja.
I always think to myself, "The original G.I. Joe was silly. The second series can't be as bad as I remember it." And of course, every time I see it I think, "Nope. I was wrong. It sucks."

SShadow had strong ties to his family in Japan and went there upon returning from Vietnam, and Snake Eyes later joined him as he lost his whole family in an accident. So they are brothers, but not blood family.

Thats pretty much it. The Marvel comics by Hama were the greatest. The cartoons and even Devils Due comics don't even come close. Hama wrote GI Joe like he was writing about his children. Devil's Due has been writing them like cheap fanfics.

I've been trying to track down the Hama GI Joes, as a matter of fact. I think they were collected in tpb form a few years ago. I haven't read the Devils Due comis, but I have seen how jobbing writers can take a great idea and make it boring, dumb, or downright ludicrous.

There are five trade paperbacks of the first 50 issues released by Marvel back in 2001. Some appear to be at Amazon and you might try Ebay. There are also a number of Devils Due paperbacks so be sure to look for MARVEL

IDW has begun republishing the Larry Hama issues since they got the license. The first 50 issues (collected into 5 trades) are out now. IDW is publishing issues 51 to 60 in November. Hopefully they'll get to all 155 issues.
Incidentally IDW is also publishing a "Best of ..." series revolving around various characters. Some of these trades have issues that haven't been collected yet.

Yeah. When Hama killed off characters there was actually some impact to them. When DD did it you could hear then snickering "OMFG! We killed somebody! We're k3w1 and 133t d00d!" For an issue or two they even brought in characters never before seen in comics like Big Boa and Tracker simply to kill them off in the same page they first showed up. They tried to ape Cobra Commanders son Billy by trying to give Destro and Zartan long lost children. Cheap jobbers.

Man talk about the old memories Still watch it and prefer it over Signma Six.
Snake Eyes is a lot more agile, smarter and ruthless than that. And Storm Shadow never Called Snake Eyes Snakes. It was always Sword brother or Silent one ir his real name.
I just hope they make a cartoon series like Devil's Due publishing and not this Signma Six crap.

Not really brothers, literally, but they were from the same clan.

snake eyes is a blonde blue eyed american (disfigured in battle) and storm shadow is japanese ofcourse... snake eyes was trained by stormshadows family which are descendents of a long line of ninja.

They got that all wrong. 1) Snake Eyes is more agile and coordinated than that. 2) Storm Shadow is Japanese. He definitely does not sound like it!

No animated program ever really did Snake-Eyes justice.
Storm Shadow sounds Japanese to me, but extremely forced and over the top.

Yes he does.
