Jinx723 says
Also if it does happen they'll start with Ken, Ryu, Bison, (maybe)Chun Li. I want to see Akuma, Crimson Viper, Cammy, Fei Long, Rolento, C.Jack, Doctrine Dark, Skullomania, and T-Hawk.

I've got to ask, what the heck is going on here? The top fighters (Ryu and Snake Eyes) both threw their matches. And Storm Shadow, who was supposed to lose, refused. Meanwhile more junior fighters like Jinx are deliberately advanced. I'm really curious to see how this plays out, because the various parties all seem very keen to shape the final fights into an unexpected bracket.

Meanwhile, SE very OBVIOUSLY threw his match. How does THAT help?
seaneley says
Well... I'm pleasantly surprised. I was wrong about Snake-Eyes making it to the end against Bison. And Storm Shadow is apparently not a Cobra agent anymore, if the little 'x' through "Cobra" means anything.
seaneley says
Issue 3 was insane!
I am totally baffled by Snake Eyes vs Rufus. I don't know anything about Rufus or what is final attack was supposed to be, but as I mentioned before it is very obvious Snake Eyes threw the fight. He and Ryu were the good guys' best fighters, so it is clear that they are trying to shape the final bracket according to some plan...
Which brings me to Fight Two. As 'Tankers probably know by now, Jinx is one of my favorite characters. It is totally crazy that she started to manifest the Satsui no Hado, which is usually Ryu's gimmick. Is this the Joes' real plan? Snake Eyes and Ryu dropped out so that Jinx can fight Bison and unleash a dark power?
I'm a huge fan of Guile's new look. I want to make a custom of him. I suspect using an Elite Horseman figure from 50th Ann. would be a good start.
And the ending was great. As much as I like Storm Shadow, I knew he would lose to Bison. I was genuinely scratching my head when he submitted to Bison, but it all made sense at the very end. I appreciated this because I think very often in GI Joe the ninjas come across as costumed superheroes and we forget that deception is (or rather, should be) at the core of what ninja are about.
