Was Tripwire called by name or shown full-body in the issue? That visor design doesn't look like Tripwire's to me - his is more integrated into his helmet and goggle-shaped. The visor in the scan reminds me more of Flash or Grand Slam. --Monzo 03:25, 28 April 2011 (EDT)
- I used YoJoe.com's comic guide to identify him. I'm no Joe expert, but I thought those slight "ear"-protrusions his helmet has indicate him to be Tripwire rather than either Flash or Grand Slam. Geewunling 03:46, 28 April 2011 (EDT)
- Yep, the Yojoe comic guide identifies the visored guy in both issues 3 and 4 as being Tripwire. Personally, I kind of agree with Monzo that it doesn't look all that Tripwire-esque but Yojoe.com is a notable Joe fansite so they know their stuff. It's possible they even asked the writer or artist. --Detour 04:16, 28 April 2011 (EDT)
- Well, like I asked above - is he shown full-body, or at least more than his head, at any point in the issues where he appears? I'd rather look at the appearances themselves and take a stab at IDing him than going strictly off what Yojoe says, but I don't have time right now to dig my own copies out. --Monzo 04:44, 28 April 2011 (EDT)
- He's on a RAM in a groupshot in issue 4. --Detour 04:48, 28 April 2011 (EDT)
