some plot/character advice for my dio......

Post by Ross SC »

ok, will feature SAS Force, my idea is basically the main members from sas force have been called back into service by Flint to help out an old AF coleague in trouble (AF has now been disbanded) & will feature a new enemy, with only a few Cobra.
basically several key AF are now members of G.I. Joe (even in AF comics it eventually became G.I. Joe the Action Force & all the key AF teams disappeared) & one of them is in trouble! Flint decides SAS Force are perfect for the mission & teams them up with a few Joes.

Now does this sound ok? i mean, the whole "AF disbanded" thing isnt going to offend anyone is it?
next up, who would you like to see? should i include Stalker? was thinking about it, but is he too close to Snake Eyes who is also featuring?

if anyone can help, i need more of this guy: http://www.yojoe.com/action/85/snakeeyes2.shtml
i dont need the head, but any other body parts (especially chests & arms) would be a HUGE help!

Also, can anybody tell me what year SAS Force last featured in AF? im trying to figure out how long they would have been out of service!

I think you should use :stalker: along with :snakeeyes: , thus you can show why each one is a good chara on his own. I think the main mistake of the BAF " :cobra: era" stories was not putting old :af: members together with their own mold-partners; they could have shown that each was special on his/her own.

thanks DAMartin, yeah it was a shame that all the individual teams just got fazed out! i wanted to use both of them, just wasnt sure how that would go down on here so it's nice to get a possitive comment so quick!

im open to any advice/feedback, even negative so dont be afraid to post!

:stalker: has no connection to :snakeeyes: so don't worry, you can use him. In fact he was drawn without the mask all throughout Operation Bloodhound. Curiously, he looks like Lowlight.

In Revenge of the Red Shadows, :eagle2: and :skip: are mentioned by name along with an asterisk * (on page 3) The asterisk box states "Codenames of other Action Force team leaders now assigned ot other security duties across the world". The original squads were not disbanded.

:zforce: returned to battle :cobra: in Venom of Cobra. :sas: returned on three occasions; Operation Stubborn, Death in South America and for the final time in London in Peril.

This would put their final printed appearance as 3rd May 1986.

If you even think of mentioning a Quarrel & Scarlett team-up we'll be cleaning up bits of Jamar for months.

Phew! Luckily I deleted my :quarrel: / :scarlett: example before posting! Well, if not the gals, what about :gaucho: and :gungho: (highlighting :gaucho: 's strongman background, and :gungho: 's marine one)?

I'd love to see AF characters with their Wave 3 counterparts. That would really make it interesting.

It doesn't really excite me, to be honest. I suspect that it's Joe repaint thing again. Many of our overseas readers only really seem to be interested in the "UK 11", but to me all of the characters are valid.

I think it would help debunk the idea that they transferred to AF, also with the recent recolours featuring the original wave 2 chaps it would really be cool imho. Also I'd like to see Jamar's reaction ;)

You couldn't include Red Jackal for obvious reasons, but imagine Gaucho and Gung Ho, or Stalker and Snake Eyes, or Jammer and Stalker... One thing tho, I don't consider V1 Snake Eyes to be Snake Eyes, V2 is AF Snake Eyes and V1 is Stalker.
