Eh...
I love GI Joe, and even dreamed up this Lowlight mini years ago. I had this whole story fleshed out with him being disavowed over following kill orders from Duke (he's a sniper, after all). I never got around to writing it, though. It would be fun to have some GI Joe stories, especially one featuring Sgt. Slaughter!
But...not for M2K. It just doesn't fit anywhere. Off-brand properties used to be featured at the site, but those have since been removed. I do think a site featuring the Star characters would be a lot of fun to play with, though. Defenders of the Earth, He-Man, Thundercats, and Silverhawks especially.

bloke: Love the gold key heroes and the idea of doing a movie Avengers deal with them was a dream come true...but that ending just left me a sad and broken fanboy.
What happened? Hester did a great job on THUNDER Agents, I had such high hopes. Guess if I want it done write, I'm going to have to do it myself...
As for GI Joe: Kindle Worlds offers GI Joe as one of their worlds for people to write in. So, if you guys have stories that'd be the place to go.
Once I get caught up on my M2K projects, I have plans for a story using the 70's guys.
Star Comics: Cool idea, but I worry we'd just end up fighting over who gets Defenders of the Earth. I doubt anybody on this site is chomping at the bit to write Madballs or Royal Roy...

No but He-Man is the way forwards.

Star Comics, Eh... Maybe, we can bring back some other obscure Marvel characters to the site like Slapstick or Howard The Duck, and even Spider-Ham.

Wasn't Spider-ham a Star comic?

Yes, he was. He did have a major role in the recent Spiderverse event and is in the current Web-Warriors comic series.

Planet Terry just turned up in Drax.
I'm calling the greatest series ever:
The Third Earth (New Thundera) Vs Eternia War.

Go for it. I think I could do a mean Brute Force series. Who doesn't want a Dolphin in Bionic armor?

There is actually talk of DC doing a Masters of the Universe/Thundercats mini.
Hope they pull it off, as I love a good crossover story.
I forgot all about Brute Force! How did that never get a cartoon...?
My dream is with the Hasbro movie deal that I will finally get that live action 'Inhumanoids' movie I've been hoping for.

'scool Crute, I was just joking around. You watching the original stuff, or the reboots of both from the early 2000s?

You should watch the 2011 Thundercats, it's a great reboot and Snarf doesn't talk. Also watch Transformers Prime, not only to hear the returns of Peter Cullen and Frank Welker as Optimus Prime and Megatron but of guest voice appearance of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as Cliffjumper in the three part first episode.

Wasn't the Thundercats series the one where Liono came out of the Sword of Omens and he found out that Cheetarah was raped repeatedly by Mumra and the twins were child sex slaves?

That sounds way too dark for a TV show with a Cat themed Car.

I....don't think so. Unless that was the comic Wildstorm put out a decade ago,
The recent reboots of He-Man and Thundercats weren't bad, and I particularly enjoyed one Thundercats episode where they helped a plant-based species with a one-day lifespan. But I still remember rushing home from Kindergarten to watch the originals. Had the toys, wore the costumes, may still have some of those old He-Man comics. Sure, looking back they were blatantly trying to sell all the toys they could, but they were fun.
