Joe, it cant be all bad. i like it better then sigma six, but then again the only thing related to joe i dont like better then S-6 is extreme which i also watched.

Because DIC was the lowest bidder. I remember reading in an interview somewhere that DIC offered to make Joe cartoons for peanuts compared to what Sunbow was charging.

However, all things aside, they got one thing right. They kept Chris Latta as Cobra Commander (and Morgan Lofting as the Baroness in Operation Dragonfire). It's just too bad they didn't get anything else right!

I have good memories of the DIC one, but just because it featured characters I owned (while the Sunbow one featured characters that appeared almost three years before I started buying Joes).
