Cyclops is not only my favorite X-Man, he's my #3 favorite Marvel super hero!

(1 and 2 are Spider-Man and-- Captain America, Marvel's version of Duke!)

This is kinda getting farcical... Poster boys etc... It's petty.

Fair enough, Duke has had a lot of attention, as his Snake Eyes... But what about Flint and Shipwreck? The limelight the Sarge often got in the toon?

No one is mentioning them.

Love them or hate them... They are all important characters in Joe mythos, in fact most of them are, in some way or another... Between comics, toons and filecards we have always had insight into every individuals character and that's a true beauty of this toy line we collect... Every character has a character... There is no two dimensional or boring characters, none I've come across anyway... I can't even think of many characters who seem the same. Every Character has some kind of unique feature about them.

For someone to say Duke is a poster boy and not a hero strikes me as just plain petty. If someone says G.I. Joe, what comes into your head first? The image of Duke? I'd imagine not somehow... Where is the poster boy thing coming from anyway? The fact Duke has blonde hair and blue eyes? Let's hope it isn't as stereotypical as that... By the way, for the record I have black hair and brown eyes. It might be because Rich mentioned Duke as being on the front of a collectors guide... So what? He's at the top of this page too? Why? Because he is a huge player in the Joe world... Like Wolverine is to the X-men... I don't ever remember Duke screwing over everyone else though to get the limelight... Unlike Wolverine, that goes for comics, cartoons and film versions of both Joe and X-men. Despite Wolvie being the man in the X-men, which I don't like, I don't hate Wolverine for it. God knows... I should... X3 was a disaster, I turned it off after 40 minutes or so!

Why is Wolverine so popular? His character... Pure bad @$$! Just like Snake Eyes... Who just so happens to be popular in the Joe world... Just like Duke? Yup... I'd say Duke was bad @$$ too...

No matter how many men there is in anything... Joe, X-men or even Lost... There are always a select few who get more exposure... Usually because they are quite quirky and unique or bad @$$, etc. Let's not hate these characters for that?

Every one is entitled to an opinion, sure they are. You've probably just read mine. But your opinions seem a bit petty... C'mon guys, back them up with decent arguments... Please don't think I'm having a go, I'm not. I want to understand where you are coming from with this?

Perhaps the bottom line is this... Duke is popular... For reasons far beyond those which some people are suggesting...

Dave :D

ok this is about duke. not the others

However, it very well could be about all the 'popular' Joes..........and in terms of 'popularity', Snake Eyes is the media ho@r of the entire line...........not Duke........

ok i didnt think this was going out of control. i may have gone too far.
but you know what. duke should have die. i dont like him.
you know what. i just may start a i hate duke club. :D thanks Sonneilon
