Dude, I don't even know who half those dudes are. Poorly drawn? That's an understatement. My dream would be for Jim Lee to tackle GI Joe and give them a good drawing.

Still, even as poorly drawn as it is, the picture is impressive. It is definitely a view to see everyone who has ever been a member of the unit.

Wow, this art is so inconsistant. Just look at how huge Bombstrike is compared to Lifeline who's in front of her. (and please, no puns should be made from my comment)

As for who the blond guy is... I'm gonna go on a limb and say it's Lt. Stone from the GIJoe Extreme series. And why not? Sgt. Savage and Freight are there, as are all of the guys from Savage's toyline.

Well there are two Long Ranges, two Lifelines, two Sidetracks and two Dustys in there, so why not both Lt. Stones? It's not like they're the same character.

Rumbler's there -- track down from the Steel Brigade Commander in the back row, and Rumbler is standing just in front of Sci-Fi and Slipstream.

There are a few I don't recognise:

I'm not overly familiar with the Sgt. Savage characters - I'm assuming they're all in the top-left, near Robo-JOE? I'm pretty sure Savage is the one with the green headband, but I don't know the guys to the left (naked bald guy; red headband guy; thick-set whit shirt guy) and above/right (smooth helmet & monocle-thing guy; JvC Heavy Duty look-a-like guy; round glasses & white headscarf guy). D-Day and Dynamite are amongst them, right? And are some of them from Extreme? (I don't like the idea of having Extreme characters in there since that was a totally seperate universe -- might as well have the Reloaded cast in there too, or at least the female Doc).

Who is the woman in white immediately below Robo-JOE? Not Storm Shadow's apprentice/girlfriend/enemy Junko Akita?

Then a couple of spaces below her is a guy with short, receding blond hair (surrounded by Sidetrack, Scoop, Pathfinder and Mace).

Just left of centre, above Spearhead and then Faces, is a smiling blond guy in a dark blue/black outfit. Maybe Daemon, the computer-guy Serpentor killed? He got more page-time than Cool-Breeze and Mangler put together, and they're on there.

Finally, an the far right edge about 2/3 of the way up, there's someone in black just above T'Gin-Zu, Red Spot and Wreckage. I can't even tell if it's meant to be a man or a woman...

I love the poster more in concept than execution -- the art could be WAY better. I can understand ignoring perspective a bit so the characters in back aren't too small to see properly, but a bit of consistency in scale should still be possible for guys standing next to each other; how huge is Doc, there...?! Shame they didn't get Tim Seeley to do it.

Here's hoping for a Cobra companion piece, with all the individual characters and maybe one each of the different troop-types... :)

Who the heck is the bald guy with glasses on the top row? :confused:

Oh, that's easy. That's Dr Mindbender.

Seriously, that was a hacker duder that was brought in, iirc, for the Frontline series. He didn't last long and he looked like the old editor for DD, Scott Wherle.

Yeah, his codename was "Scanner" because he reviewed the internet, newspapers, TV, etc. to pick up on any pertinent pieces of information and assemble the bigger story (like he'd done when he came to the Joes' attention as an "underground journalist," figuring out more about them and Cobra than they were comfortable with). He was a quaint character although he probably would have worked better as an occasional cameo/resource for the team who hung around for a while instead of being the big, self-sacrificing hero in like his 3rd appearance...

And I'm assuming that's the ill-fated "Sneak Peek II" to the right of Scanner...

Was Chameleon in the big picture? The forgotten female Joe.

Plus what about the mail-in Joe from 2002-2003...which had a random name assigned by Hasbro. That would up the team picture to enormous proportions. ;)
