Comic Pack 32 1/2 should be 14 1/2

Postby toy-nutz » Tue Feb 12, 2008 11:14 pm

It just dawned on me as I was re reading issue 14, that the 32 1/2 actually fits in and makes sense to be 14 1/2. The Joe's invade Springfield, VT, and Scar Face is alive, Destro and Scar Face are having "issues", Dr. Venom is thought to be dead (along with Kwinn and Snake Eyes), Cobra Commander is doing his "shooting practice", and Stormy is still with Cobra and does not know about Zartan. It all fits perfectly!!!

I haven't read it, but just from what I've heard online (mainly Scarface alive and Dr. Venom at least thought to be dead), I had also been thinking it would fit right here.

... except that we see a post-surgery Baroness, which doesn't unwrap until the early/mid 20s, right?

Also, Scar-Face was never buried, and others got out of that base offscreen in the same amount of time that he had. The only problem is the key to his cuffs, which is easily explained.

Baroness had her accident in the 20's, but she looked the same after surgery anyway! The only thing changed on her was her uniform. And it is obvious that the new artist is just going by the more "iconic" look instead of the more comic accurate version. But reading 14 and 32.5 back to back, every thing just lines up and works.

But Larry, at that time had said in the letter page that Scar-Face was dead. So everything lines up with taking place in the middle of issue 14.

and at the time Shooter wasn't a real character either. Things change. New ideas pop-up all the time.

It could be intresting to see Scarface pop up somewhere nowadays in some force that opposes Cobra, maybe under Serpentor or the Red Shadows or something.
