  • From the epic rivalry of Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes to the dedication of fellows like Hawk and Duke, the G.I. Joes are an epic team of real American heroes that every American kid has idolized at least once in their lives. But the G.I. Joe would be incomplete without the existence of their archenemies in the form of the evil organization Cobra, led by Cobra Commander. What started off as a toy line took the shape of comics written by Larry Hama and then culminated into several cartoons. Larry dedicated twelve years of his life to G.I. Joe and developed intricately detailed characters for his work. However, the comics and the shows have very different character sketches of the major characters from both G.I. Joe and Cobra. Therefore, when we make a list of the strongest and most influential characters of this franchise, we have to consider the fact that a character that had immense importance in the comics was played off with a relatively smaller role in the cartoons and vice versa. But since comics came first and remain the original source, we have made this video by paying more homage to the comics than the cartoons. In this video, we will be exploring ten thrilling characters based on the popular opinion of the Marvelous Videos staff.

    It's impossible to seemlessly tie together the live action movies, various cartoons (aside from the Marvel/Sunbow masterpiece), and all the comics from various publishers through the years. Occasionally there are plot and historical inaccuracies within each iteration. Just like how there are plot inaccuracies in real life, at times.

    No. You got you origin of Hawk wrong. President Kennedy approached Joe Colton and HE was the original G.I. Joe to head a team of elite soldiers.

    I pretty much hated most of the cast in live action films. Only ones great were Ray Park. And the guy playing Storm Shadow. Worst one I could not stand was the guy who played Destro. He was a whiner and no fighter. Hope they make films more like the 1980's animated series. Loved characters on good guys and bad guys. I liked Serpentor more when he took over Cobra Commander's place. His appearance was awesome and ruthless. I liked the series Versions much better. Flint and Lady Jaye, & Sgt. Slaughter, Roadblock, Shipwreck and Snakeyes were my most favorites. Favorite villains were Serpentor, Destro, Dr. Mindbender, The Dreadlocks.
