Home Episode Summaries Season 2 My Favorite Things - Notes
Credits: written by Doug Booth
Production Number: 600-70
Original Airdate: October 16, 1986
Leatherneck and Wet-Suit’s rivalry gets out of hand. Leatherneck loses
sight of the Joes’ objective - defending freedom - and turns their battles
with Cobra into a personal glory seeking campaign. His irresponsible actions
result in Wet-Suit’s near fatal injuries and causes Leatherneck to re-examine
his reasons for joining the Joes. [Note: The final version of the episodes reversed the positions of the characters.]

Included in Serpentor's collection is the statue of Julius Caesar from
Prima Porta, which may have been referenced in the animation sequence for
the G.I.Joe
Armadillo, Mirage and the Cobra Flight Pod commercial. Also, the person
behind Julius Caeser looks similar to Alfred E. Neuman, the mascot of Mad
Magazine.

An unidentified character appears beside Leatherneck (left side). |
Considering the snake-like features of King Tashaka and the placement of
the Cobra organization's symbol on a table, which appears to be part of
the tomb due to the designs around the table's edges, the inclusion of
the king may have been a hint about the upcoming appearance Cobra-La.
At the end of the episode, Leatherneck is seen reading an issue of Marvel's
G.I.Joe comic book series, and due to the amount of brown around
the logo, the cover referenced may have been issue 41, which was published
in November 1985 (with information from Matthew Pak's 3 3/4" G.I.Joe
Collector Guide - Volume Two: The Television Episodes).
