The first superhero comic books would have superheroes enter WW2 and fight the enemy. But that was a popular war. Vietnam, in the 60s, was not. And yet, someone tried to make a superhero soldier called Super Green Beret. In fact, it was by Otto Binder, who wrote the most Captain Marvel/Shazam comics. It's a poor fit. This episode is just a fun look at a bad idea.

[@prodigal1970]

UCMJ 108 actually covers Destruction of Government property which could be part of any accountable property book held by a unit Commander at any level, Like a Singcars radio, predator drone, MRAP/HRAP or LMTV. It does not cover giving away parts of your uniform. The UCMJ does not punish that in any way. Now on the flip side, if SGT Snuffy gave away his headgear he'd be well advised to have a replacement to wear in his go bag. You cannot wear a uniform without headgear in public, this is regulated and punishable by the Uniform Code of Military Justice or UCMJ under several articles. In accordance with Section 771, Chapter 45, Title 10, United States Code, no person except a member of the U.S. Army may wear the uniform, a distinctive part of the uniform, or any part of which is similar to a distinctive part of the U.S. Army uniform, unless otherwise authorized by law. Again, people wear army issue pants, shirts, undershirts and headgear all the time and do not get in trouble. But if someone combines a complete uniform and tries to pass himself off as a soldier and they never served then that can be a serious offense.

[@Bryan-gy2zu]

The thing is that there is a kernel of good idea here: The stupid name can be attributed to the character being a kid that turns into a man. Maybe the kid glorifies the army, and by extension the war, because his brother is fighting in it. As this kid goes on fighting he starts to see that 'Nam is more complicated than "good vs bad" and starts questioning the war and the usage of his powers. Ultimately, you could make an arc of the kid actually becoming a man when he starts to learn about how war isn't something to romanticize and rarely is about good vs bad.

I really like it when ComicTropes talks about a bad comic. You get the impression that he really wants to like every comic he reads because he wants to live in a world where every published comic is good. But, when he reads a bad comic, he struggles to find things to like about it. You almost get the impression that he feels betrayed when companies that he respects, and artists that he enjoys, produce bad comics. He's like a parent saying "I'm not mad at you, little comic, I'm just disappointed."

[@LupineShadowOmega]

To be fair Comic Tropes, I feel like the story would be better if Super Green Beret *were* some sort of Trickster god. It would explain all of the make his imagination real stuff he was doing, plus it would put a logical limit on the things he should be able to accomplish with said powers and to the powers themselves. Plus it would also make sense why he can basically only play tricks on the Viet Cong. I'd even give it bonus points if the kid couldn't actually control what his alternate self does and instead its like freeing this crazy trickster god toward a purpose. He can decide where its aimed, but not what it does.

[@JeffWittyArt]

Slight correction: his shoulder is his SF unit patch. his airborne medal is on his upper left chest above the breast pocket. there should be an airborne TAB above the unit patch, but whatever. that arrowhead is an SF unit patch on his shoulder.

You know in the hands of a different writer, the premise of the Super Green Beret could actually be brilliant indictment of the American military industrial complex. Think about it, a Jingoist kid gets the magic beret, and while he goes on these adventure to "fight the good fight" as he sees it, the two personalities begin the merge and Super Green Beret slowly becomes more monstrous and brutal over the course of the story.

Super Green Beret was a covert operation to smuggle all the heroin out of Vietnam. That would have been the comic I would have made.

[@GleeChan]

Is it sad that the little info you gave on Fatman was way more interesting than the events in whole first issue of Super Green Beret?

[@nozoto]

My pitch around the Super Green Beret idea: Captain Gustav Holton was an element the US army prides itself with. His success on the Vietnam war front didn't go unnoticed from his superiors... A particularly brilliant non commissioned officer, he was about to be promoted as first sergeant when a surprise raid claimed many lives, including his. The Joint Personal Effects Depot gave Holton's only retrieved belonging to Ryan Bellemore, his last known relative, who is also about to be drafted. On the contrary of his cousin, he is somewhat of a thoughtless jerk and scumbag, going to war for all the wrong reasons. By fun, he decides to try on his cousin's beret to see how it fits on him. Right after putting it on, he gets harrowing flashbacks of the war, seeing the last place of rest where his relative remains stayed, in a territory now firmly held by the vietcongs. This night, he wasn't able to sleep, as he had nightmare of Holton imploring him to get back his remains. As Bellemore affected to ignore it, he had one final dream where Holton made a pact: if Bellemore locates his body to get it buried on his natal village's grounds, he will bestow upon Bellemore his vast military science through the beret. As he's enlisted, Bellemore thinks he has nothing to lose running with it and grab the beret with him... Is his military career going to transfigure? Will Bellemore be in terms that he owes most of his prowess to his dead cousin? Will he ever uphold his part of the contract and push enough on North Vietnam where Holton's body awaits him? Are the Vietnamese genuinely the fiends depicted by US propaganda?

[@laineydoodles9297]

I like this redo of _The Green Beret_ story a lot better than what was reviewed. Gives a little more ground, realism and grit to the story. Hopefully this pitch will become an actual comic. I'd read that.

[@nozoto]

@@laineydoodles9297 Yes, it'd be interesting to see it executed by an artist familiar with the conflict. My take on Green Beret would show the ugly side of war, with its share of sociopaths and war criminals and the good one through Bellemore, who starts off as a complete Jamoke, to finally end after many hardships as a dignified military figure being decorated with a silver star. I can imagine the highlights of the story: - Bellemore having it hard from the drill sergeant. Learns the bitter lesson that a good soldier must learn how to swallow his pride, as following orders is necessary for survival. - he meets his rival, basically an ugly reflection of his own image. He learns that sometimes, personal prejudice have to be stomached and nothing can be done about it. He grows stronger out of the experience as a result. - he meets the main antagonist, his corrupt superior in the battlefield. - his first arms. Thinking he doesn't need anything to shine out of sufficience, he wents on to be a complete letdown. That's when he decides to don with the super green beret. - his spectacular rise and his rival doing his utmost to smear him. - his struggle to not be mobilized on a frontline taking him away from Holton's unwanted grave. Resolution as he points out the strategic value of his P.O.I. - the black Tuesday. Led by his corrupt superior, knowing that he is dead wrong, Bellemore faces the risk to face martial law if he disobeys. He decides to, and save his rival and some brothers in arms from a vicious trap laid by the vietcongs through unreliable informants. That's when he measures how much he grew in maturity as Holton simply guided his steps. - The rivals relationship, developing into a deep seated, brotherly respect between the former enemies. They fight alongside with great efficiency from now on. - His trial, where he's finally acquitted of all charges of insubordination. - More fights. He realizes that the Vietnamese, like him, faces the fear of death, doubt and such. - Faces Vo Nguyen Giap in person in the final battle, but the general narrowly escapes. Won it without the super beret on as it taught him everything already. Bellemore's most climactic victory, as the American camp Holton died on is reinvested and bodies are repatriated. - Bellemore at the funerals on the village Holton fondly remembered. Bellemore places his silver star on top of Holton's body alongside the super beret. Despite many offers from the army, he decides not to renew his terms and find his calling as a park ranger. Also regularly helps viet veterans reinsert through the actions of VVA.

[@williamsimkulet7832]

Fun stuff, as always. It's pretty tone deaf, but the modern, competent adaptation of this writes itself - the young kid inherits his dead soldier brother's (magic) hat (no doubt empowered by some Indiana-Jones-like blah blah blah), and though he's (secretly) got unlimited powers, as a grieving child he doesn't understand, and putting the hat on gives him the body of his dead brother, but now all magic and stuff. His arc in said movie, of course, is to realize there are innocent people on both sides of an unjust war, and he beats up the corrupt Americans who conspired to kill his brother, and then does whatever the equivalent of Wonder Woman's botched third act is, coincidentally beating up the baddies just as the war ends so he doesn't have to be a racist. Throw in a love interest and special effects, and it might even be tolerable.

To be fair to the uncle, the military prepares you for many unexpected situations, but i dont think seeing your nephew magically turning into an adult thanks to a jungle wizard is not one of those. I would think even the most well trained military man would be questioning reality at that moment too, if only for a short time

[@karabearcomics]

Seeing the creator of Pilli Adventure having submitted art makes me think of how, while I have never read that webcomic, I know of it, through its affiliation with Bad Guy High, as well as some involvement in the crossover comic Crossoverkill (in part because a character from Bad Guy High was in it). Therefore, it makes me think that if you ever do a webcomic review, it might be fun to cover the Crossoverlord and/or Crossoverkill, both fun comics which I feel can deserve some more eyes on them.

[@shoddyworkmanship4934]

I don't know, this comic was pretty sweet in my opinion! I love the silver-age Superman stories, where everything is so ridiculous that it comes across as a farce. Those sorts of stories make me smile, and no one does anything so earnest and ridiculous any longer.

[@pietrayday9915]

If we're at all honest, the writing is just terrible, but there is a sort of breathless naivete and optimism to it that really couldn't have survived very long into that dark and cynical decade as public opinion of the war and of the U.S. military turned more and more sour - the whole thing must have read as rather old-fashioned and out-of-touch before the second issue hit the shelves. Still, I think the goofy and surreal mindset that could plan to write a serial about a world where the U.S.A.'s difficulties in Vietnam could be solved by a half-baked jungle-wizard, a well-meaning American kid wearing a magic hat, and a troupe of imaginary pineapple-throwing monkeys reads much better for what it is today, with a little distance from the whole mess. I think the artwork is generally pretty good, besides - probably far better than this story deserved, but I can't help wondering what might have been had the artist's talents been hired toward a more mature, insightful, balanced, and serious treatment of the Vietnam war, more in line with those old Sgt. Rock or Combat Kelly comics, or contemporary television shows like "Combat!"

[@shoddyworkmanship4934]

@@pietrayday9915 Honestly I think most comics artists were under served by their writers. Maybe I do just like looking back at a more naive and less-cynical time. You could make up all this ridiculous stuff and people would enjoy it for what it was. I feel like every time a new concept is introduced in modern story-telling it requires a large, unwieldy explanation - an explanation that doesn't make the original concept any more believable than if it were not explained at all. I miss unrestrained imagination.

I probably never managed to read past the first six pages though, so the in-depth exploration is totally fascinating. This clueless endeavour is truly a wondrous piece of garbage deserving a place in any collection that touches on the mid-60s Green Beret craze in popular culture, which was the most successful and visible manifestation of that forgotten, cockeyed 1960s alternate universe , the "fake Vietnam" narrative perpetuated in comics, paperbacks, and film.
