I suppose the falling Joes might have 'chutes but it was hard to tell.

I'm gonna assume Stormy is dead cuz it'd be an end to a very long feud. PUll the phoenix thing, I hope not. Anyway, I'm cool with ALL the episodes myself.

Another possibility, they are all dead for the reason that new characters are going to take their place--characters that maybe Hasbro has hopes would steer the Joe story to something new--to re-invent GI Joe.

Hadn't Hasbro lost the copyright to the name "Roadblock"? Why? Was there a lack of interest in Roadblock for long-term Joe stories? Maybe this is a way to kill him off in a blaze of glory for the fans, and still be-done with the character. Onward to new characters with fresher copyrights.

Like, say, Heavy Duty? heh

Hasbro's been trying to make him a 'core' character forever.

I disagree... I like all the new voices, it gives them better character... Stalker has dreadlocks, how cool is that. I think they're doing a great job with it and I can only hope it turns into more than what it is now.

the "we have a Ninja?" clip was shown to give the essence of the style they were aiming for - not in any continuity.

Roadblock survived, if you look at some of the clips out there you can see him fire off a shot with Gung-Ho's gun - the grenade launcher - so he's alive and kicking, Gung-Ho: MIA for now.

I'm not convinced that Storm Shadow is completely dead - if he is then I don't have a big problem with it really. But I don't think that the story can move that much forward from there for Snake Eyes, which is a bummer, since he is my favourite character

"WHAT IF?"
 

It's funny, in few minutes we've lost so many main characters...
Is this a "what if?"

I like some of the voices. But the grizzley voice is over played. Its great for Cobra Commander. Ok for Duke. But then when it's Flint, Roadblock and Gung Ho, they all start to sound the same. We might dis Sunbow here and there, but at least they got the voices to sound different for MOST of the characters.



LIke Craig and Frank, I'd like NEW characters. Not 'newer' characters to take up different people's positions. Ie; the Roadblock vs Heavy Duty debate. SHoot, why not just have REpeater come in OR use RnR for once?!?!?

Resolute 9 & 10
 

Episode 9 was stupid. Duke and Scarlett are right in the middle of a damn CROSSFIRE and don't get hit until after they're out of it, and even then it happens off-screen.

And then Zartan loses all the interesting parts of his personality... and then gets killed.

Resolute gets more and more disappointing, mostly because of characters being pointlessly de-depthified... only to die a few moments later.

Seriously, couldn't Voltar or Cesspool die there in Zartan's place?

Once again I was pleased with the episodes, however I wish it was Scarlett that was hit instead of Duke... Duke getting a "life-threatening" injury has already been done. Not saying by any means I want Scarlett to die, but it would make things more interesting to see someone other than Duke actually get injured.

Zartan... ehh... why not?

I like the fact that it "bounced" off Destro's mask... it should have dented it.
