Actually if you have any other Joes on the list that have not been redesigned yet that might be theme you can shoot for in your challenge.Jason Smithhttp://www.comicartfans.com/GalleryDetail.asp?GCat=21894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5587780658254126152.post-21508714196700749342011-07-05T11:28:40.959-05:002011-07-05T11:28:40.959-05:00I think Quick Kick was definitley underused.

But he could have been used a lot better than in the cartoon. I have him on my list for the year's sketch challenge and I will approach it with a redesign I think.Robert Atkins Arthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09328339581827719050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5587780658254126152.post-2356335930243349272011-07-05T01:47:56.871-05:002011-07-05T01:47:56.871-05:00I always thought that Quick Kick could have been a...I always thought that Quick Kick could have been a great character if developed right... He would have been a nice counter balance to the whole ninja craze in the book. He could have had a skeptical attitude towards all of the ninja mysticism in the series, echoing what was going on in some fans' heads. His "costume" was so ridiculous, though, it kind of ruined any chance to treat the character seriously.<br /><br />Though, he did get to join the "Down 'n' Dirty" group during the Springfield assualt...CrazyKnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5587780658254126152.post-14483880557776911312011-07-04T18:50:33.380-05:002011-07-04T18:50:33.380-05:00I'd be happy to have a Breaker, Flash, or Ace ...I'd be happy to have a Breaker, Flash, or Ace in my book from you...Jonhttps://www.facebook.com/?ref=logo#!/jonthurmondnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5587780658254126152.post-89339787837864739622011-07-04T18:18:24.189-05:002011-07-04T18:18:24.189-05:00Thank you again for doing that piece for me.

I was actually torn between Tunnel Rat and Beachhead on which one to ask but that cover you did of TR and Scarlet for GI Joe just came out and that made the decsion for me. Still have that one hanging on my wall next to the Beachead you did later on. I also did get it inked by Clayton Brown of your suggestion http://www.comicartfans.com/GalleryPiece.asp?Piece=635588&GSub=79328<br /><br />As for under used Joes, Low Light is awesome and I want to get a commish of him someday (Need to get you back down here to one of the Florida conventions Robert.), and I was also partial to Big Ben I think its his being not only a Joe but in the S.A.S that makes him cool to me.Jasonhttp://www.comicartfans.com/GalleryRoom.asp?GSub=79328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5587780658254126152.post-80986349390418094092011-07-04T16:09:27.382-05:002011-07-04T16:09:27.382-05:00Quick Kick was handled so badly in the cartoon, i...Quick Kick was handled so badly in the cartoon, i don't think others will give him a chance.

But on their own have never really been that top 13 characters that are always used. I would put Tunnel Rat, Lowlight, Breaker, Alpine, Quick Kick, Flash, Ace, etc... But I guess I never would have thought Chuckles could be cool, and the Cobra book proved that.Robert Atkins Arthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09328339581827719050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5587780658254126152.post-34887310144081916042011-07-04T05:03:56.714-05:002011-07-04T05:03:56.714-05:00Very cool piece.
