    Fun fact: Charlie Adler Low-lights voice actor in the cartoon would later go on to voice cobra commander in G.I.Joe Resolute and G.I.Joe Renegades.

    One of the best characters of the cartoon. Didn’t get used very much in the original 155 original series run. Some of the info you used is incorrect, although I don’t blame you. The M4 carbine wasn’t fielded until 1997 and don’t think the ACOG was fielded until the 90’s as well. You see Snake Eyes mount low lights scope onto Leathernecks rifle in Sierra Gordo.

    There was this one episode from the DIC series - Night of the Creepers - where Low Light's got a fear of ghosts. Kind of a dark episode as well, especially for that particular series. Kind of plays on his timidness from childhood a bit, which I could appreciate. I'm loving this channel. I keep finding more joes that I get curious about for their back stories. Thanks for your hard work.

    I was just speaking about this. Lowlights story was extra dark (no pun intended), even by GI Joe standards. It really resonated with me as a kid, to push on and be brave
    For all its glorious marketing, GI JOE was actually a pretty decent lesson for young boys

    I know this is mainly a comic channel; but wished you touched on the animated series more....his Sunbow spotlight episode was great, and he he had a major point in DiC series ferreting out Scoop. The piece de resistance? the line in "Arise Serpentor, Arise" Part 5:
    Lifeline: "Hey Low-Light! Hasit ever occured to you there might be an easier way to settle disputes?"
    Low-Light " Yeah Lifeline, it's called a gun."
    Number one line you couldn't get away with today!

    • @AustinTXSlasher

      I would have to agree here. Lowlight's one of the joes that really did a lot in the cartoon - in Sunbow and DIC. They kept him pretty solid throughout both series.

    I like Low-lights origin in the cartoon a lot better than on the file card. Low-lights bio in the order of battle Mini-series is very similar to his origin in the cartoon I think Hasbro had Larry Hama change it because they didn't want references to child abuse in bios for children's toys. I also prefer Low-light in the cartoon cause we did learn more about him and he was more developed as well.

      LowLight and Flint were always captains of cool. It took me growing up and floating around the real world to appreciate Beachhead, and where he was coming from. As a kid I just thought he was a d*ck with the way he treated the Rawhides, but really any decent commander or even private sector manager type would have the same issues with them he did.

    Lowlight was one of the worst voice changes between Sunbow and DiC. Original Lowlight sounded like Clint Eastwood, then they went with a wildly different sound. Also Lady Jaye lost that Kathleen Turner rasp, and Flint became extremely Southern sounding.
