Would the superheroes in the comic have been strict analogues of the suits the original toy had, or would it have been more open?<BR/><BR/>I had no idea Moonstone had put out an open submission call; I wish I could have submitted something, but I guess it's unlikely they would've picked me over a guy who used to write X-Men. Does Nicieza's version use the disguise aspect?<BR/><BR/>I actually had a Captain Action growing up. I was born in '84, but my dad let me play with his from when he was a kid, and he also gave me his old 12" GI Joes, so they went together in my mind; I'd play a WWII adventure, and there just happened to be a superhero who helped the soldiers out. <BR/><BR/>I seem to remember thinking Captain Action had some kind of vague nautical theme because of the hat and maybe that jagged knife. My dad's CA also had a missing hand, so I think I worked it in that his hand had been eaten by a shark (pre Peter David on Aquaman!)<BR/><BR/>It's probably best that I didn't get to write that comic and infuse it with my six-year-old boy continuity.Justinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16490957677766912068noreply@blogger.com
