Hama was a combat engineer I think. His writing often included some interesting ingenuity that most writers wouldn't think of. (Who remembers how Trip Wire disassembled a Terror Drome with explosives, and the Joes loaded the sections onto rail cars with an improvised crane?)
I do think Hit and Runs tragic backstory could potentially be explored in future G.I.Joe stories. Imagine Hit and Run having a very grim viloent personality and the other Joes struggle with him because of that, I think that would make for some cool stories with him.
I first thought Hit ‘n Run was a third variant of Footloose and Grunt, then I read Tom Clancy’s Clear and Present Danger & saw just how different and effective Light Infantry can be; by rights, Hit ‘n Run should be paired with Lt. Falcon.
How did I just find this channel? Love your content. H&R was top 3 for me based on his tactical look. I Sharpied over the orange googles on mine when I was a kid. Those were the days. Think about how much of the RAH story you've told...it scratches the surface. This is how much Hasbro has pissed on. They have had a GOLDMINE on the shelf for decades. They've never given a true effort to a simply modernized (mainly update from the Vietnam Era origins to later timeframe) storyline. I need a loan from Elon Musk to buy the rights from Hasbro. I don't THINK G.I. Joe could be brought back with huge succes, I KNOW it could. They have hundreds of issues of comics to draw from for inspiration for animated and/or live action series or movies. Endless modern camo patterns of the world, more Gucci'ed up gear to go off of, newer molding material and tech. They have 20+ years of War on Terror for back story, more public awareness of Special Operations and world terrorists organizations. Sorry, I'm ranting. This will sound silly but I swear it's true. The old Commadore 64 game Airborne Ranger, my upbringing as an Army Brat with Vietnam vet, career combat arms father and G.I. Joe, literally were the reasons I wanted to and became an Airborne Ranger. My two boys don't have privilege of growing up with anything like G.I. Joe from the 80's and that's sad.

6:12 On this page Stalker says "Get with the program ladies!" Really?! I don't like this line at all because any coach or sergent calling a group of men under thier comand "ladies" to get them fired up is just sexist. It's also very out of character for Stalker, esspecially when he works with Scarlett on a lot of missions and he knows how strong she is. I don't think Larry Hama had the word "Ladies" in his script for this issue because I know he knows better, I think it's fair to assume that the editor added that in, editors do change things in comics more than their given credit for.
@@johnconnolly2773 don’t give me that bull, I know why they do crap like this not only in the military but also in sports, including school sports because of toxic masculinity! I’m not the one who’s judging something I don’t understand, it’s those coaches and sergeants that are judging things they don’t understand, that being the idea of women being strong!

He was one of my must have toys back in 1988. Great job.
Hit & Run been through a lot over the years.

One of my first action figures, thank you for bringing these great memories with these videos, keep it up my friend
I'm still waiting for a Gi Joe X-Com.
My favorite Joe! Awesome!
Hi Your videos are awesome. Are you planning to do videos about GI JOES Pathfinder, Sub Zero and Bullhorn in the future?
This one gave me the idea to start using ziplines and rappelling with the Joes. I used a lot of string.

One of my favorites!!
Hit & Run was always my favorite.
3:16 Obiwan kenobi would be proud.
Can you do history of DC Villains Dr Alchemy and Abracadabra?
Sweet 👍
My brother and I had his figure. I liked that I couldn’t loose the helmet. Who came with the huge black plastic bag with a knife?
Can you please do history of Marvel's Rom_the_Spaceknight?
i love me some hit & run
Repeater would be cool to see, same with Lightfoot. :D
I know where that city is in Iowa where Hit & Run is from
Same. Grew up just a couple hours away from it.
Dude can we get The Night Creepers
I think Hit and Run would be make good friends with Snake Eyes, might think he’s a kindred spirit or something like that.
Can you do The Enforcers
Hit & Run he sounds like a total Giga Chad 😂
The last figure I bought as a kid. Great figure. Bad name. Your code name should not have an ampersand.
Think you from all of your friends in cobra now we know who the Joe's are and were to find them

You have absolutely no experience in the military, please don't comment on what you don't understand

The Power of Soybeans is strong in this comment
Speaking as the victim of a hit and run accident I am a bit bothered by this. "Hit & Run" is just a stupid name.
He's the one Joe I never got, he just seemed like an Alpine and Ripcord knockoff 🤔
