History and Origin of GI Joe's ICEBERG!

[@user-si9fx4xb6v]

@JLS Comics: Many thanks for covering Iceberg! He was the first G.I. Joe action figure I owned back in 1986 and the first vintage action figure I got when I began to collect G.I. Joe action figures again in 2002. Glad to hear he got to appear in the European missions comic books back in the day. His appearances in the Marvel comic bock series are some of my favorite stories and I am glad that he has appeared in the Devil 's Due and IDW comics as well.

Once again another great videos. Can you do Mercer and red dog or all the guys from sergeant slaughter marauders next .

[@jamesmoss3424]

He hates the heat and loves the cold weather. 😀👍

[@AlphaProto]

The bios of the G.I. Joe characters are so fleshed out. Makes you feel like you are reading about a actual person.

[@ManWiThOutFEAR1982]

Cooler than a polar bear's toenail. Brrrr!!! ❄🌬🌨

[@Ocelotonatiuh]

Wait, there's a GI Joe that's from The Rio Grande? Now I'm a fan.

[@DaJinx1]

My best memory was when he turned into a whale on the cartoon.

[@FnRenner]

I saw that one as a kid and none of my friends believed me when I tried telling them about Iceberg turning into a whale lol

[@kevinwedderburn7177]

A killer whale that is.

[@kratoscraken5614]

It sux, no one remembers that Iceberg was the OOOOONLY! G.I.Joe that actually dies. He wasn't in the series enough for anyone to really know him. People know more about Toll Booth and Blizzard then Iceberg, but love the video 💪👍

[@toddd.joyner1789]

Iceberg didn't die. He never did.

[@bryansardegna4195]

Awesome video on Iceberg Jesse! I love how interesting you make some of the lesser used characters. Would love to see video's on Headman and Bulletproof/DEF. Keep em coming!

[@JLSComics]

Thanks Bryan, I try to add some cool stuff especially on some characters that don’t have as much story to them

[@collinsdarkwa281]

Very Interesting

[@FnRenner]

Good job of collecting info and making lesser known characters seem more interesting.

[@JLSComics]

Thanks Karl!

[@kratoscraken5614]

And he was good friends with Wet-Suit and Letherneck 💪👍

[@The_White_Stone_Legion]

Superb

[@lennyalcina4340]

Jajajaj, I remember him, he hated the hot weather and it was hilarious, out on the cold he felt like home, great video by the way Jesse

[@jamalsoward8404]

Strange what black person like cold weather?

[@bobbybonifazi804]

I wish they had weather like this down in Waco Texas

[@dragonweyr44]

I did my basic training and advanced individual training at Ft. Leonardwood, Missouri in 1989 and they didn't train infantry there, it was mainly transportation and combat engineers

[@cowpuddles4851]

Benning is generally for infantry (and airborne school). Wish I had a chance to go back and visit. I bet it looks different now that I’m out and not a recruit!

[@dragonweyr44]

@@cowpuddles4851 The thing that got me about doing basic training was how much of a bubble we existed in the whole time, we went to different areas from time to time like the shooting range and bivouac but we were always inside a vehicle that we called a cattle car because they stuffed us in there and we couldn't even look out of it I swear, the most I ever saw of Leonardwood was the march back from bivouac and that was pretty much what seemed like 20 miles of dirt roads

[@dubuyajay9964]

Couldn't he still do Basic there and do AIT somewhere else?

[@dragonweyr44]

@@dubuyajay9964 They sometimes did that, especially if say, the Infantry School was full at that time, they could send you to another training post for Basic but most of the time, its more sensible to have both phases of training at the same base

[@dubuyajay9964]

@@dragonweyr44 Yes, it is, but I'm saying it's not unheard of.

[@jackieanderson9408]

Sweet 👍

[@trevorghalt1881]

Iceberg: I like my food like I like my enemies froze Me: Okay I like that one, but froze food tho?

[@JLSComics]

lol that’s a good point

[@YeldellGW]

I remember Iceberg, and his BAG!

[@cjalxndr]

Hi

[@markiv2942]

As a child never understood how Iceberg was black texan was supposed to be Arctic enviroment specialist. Still doesn't make sense. Cool tho.

[@roninthesecond3600]

I thought the same thing, to me I though they were trying to say black people don't go into the cold.

[@cowpuddles4851]

I hated this figure. A snow guy who came with... a rifle. No ruck, no snowshoes, not even a wolf or a walrus. Lame!

[@paulleepoy7236]

Whose that girl hez with when he turns into a whale Mon🤑🤑🤑

[@tedb1918]

We need sum LGBTQ or BLM Joes!

[@kolins.4356]

G.I. Joe made their success by not doing SJW stuff like marvel & Dc comics does.

[@Sabir_DelNorte]

@@kolins.4356🎉 right on. The series dating back to the 80s was awesome and had everything representative of America in terms of its diverse roster of Joe’s. No new age Joe content along those lines mentioned needed for a classic series. This is fine as it has been historically

[@josephnicolino8529]

Like a hole in the head

[@roninthesecond3600]

Nope we have enough diversity.
