History and Origin of GI Joe's ROCK N ROLL !

[@kweeglee]

He was my first ever G.I.Joe back when they were first released :)

[@JLSComics]

kweeglee Great choice!

[@corod-1]

Same I got him with the first issue and his bike in a pack...

[@DavidLLambertmobile]

Mine too! 👍🏻... I liked his huge machine gun ... he used a M60 type weapon but later a 5.56mm mini gun with, oddly a lever action rifle. 🤔... R&R knew how to jam 🎸...

[@glennschlegel7160]

Mine too. Best of the original characters!!!

[@MacSmithVideo]

mine too

[@MrBrianWaffle]

R&R was was my favorite Joe as a kid.

[@RoundingThird]

I just found your channel a week or 2 ago. Every time I look to the suggested videos, yours are there. It's like seeing one of my old Joes lying on the floor. Every day it's like, oh yeah rock n roll, or dusty or wild weasel. Thanks for making these.

[@louisthompson8642]

Ah! My 1st GI Joe. Second was Snake Eyes 1. I never cared about any other action figures for the rest of my childhood. I was 6

[@charlesdavis4887]

Had the V2 Rock n Roll. The double gattling guns and Winchester rifle strapped to his leg were awsome.

[@energicko]

Thank you for your video, Jesse!! Loved using Rock-n-Roll 🤘over Capt. Gridiron in the NES video game. 🇺🇸 The "other Rocky" was Cobra's action figure Big Boa (as in Balboa).

[@kratoscraken5614]

Yup he was my first G.I.JOE action figure I got love it 👍💪

[@glennschlegel7160]

Same here!!! Read the comic book too

[@AOA14]

Rock & Roll one of the coolest Joes ! Great Video !

[@JLSComics]

A. O. A thank you!

[@ReaverPrime]

Today's random bit of trivia from a marksmanship instructor: 12.7 mm equates to .50 cal. Just like 5.56 mm is .223 and 7.62mm is .308.

[@dubuyajay9964]

Ty for the useful info.

[@samuelfawley646]

In the Mass Device mini series he was voiced by Frank Welker but he was voiced by Will Ryan in the rest of the Sunbow series!

[@JLSComics]

Samuel Fawley dang it you’re right, I forgot to mention Will! Thanks for adding that

[@jalenikezeue4114]

I like Rock and roll's style

[@jakeproven256]

Frank Welker only voiced rock n roll in the first 5 episodes for the rest of the sunbow cartoon rock n roll was voiced by Will Ryan who also voiced Footloose.

[@dinomonzon7493]

I always much preferred Rock 'n Roll over Roadblock. Especially when he was uprated to a Gatling Machine Gunner. He was well thought out and was even qualified for covert ops; something Roadblock would never be. Rock 'n Roll was a touch underused in both the comics and cartoon.

[@lennyalcina4340]

Man, I 've been loving this videos, it brings me old memories from my childhood, looking for the next one, do Wild Bill

[@JLSComics]

Lenny Alcina Thanks Lenny! Wild Bill will be coming up soon

[@aaronwilliams007]

Thanks for your content! Yoooooooo Joe!

[@jamesmoss3424]

Rock & Roll is an excellent member on the team. 😀👍

[@Redmist-se7ld]

Rock n roll was is a legendary soldier

[@pledgestone]

Great job. He was one of my favorites!

[@JLSComics]

Captain Bob Smiley Thanks Cap!

[@lajas44]

Another great one! Thanks. Great character.

[@michaelkelley4188]

Outstanding explained video! I totally enjoyed it! Lets Rock and Roll! 😅Yo Joe

[@JLSComics]

Ron & Michael Kelley haha thank you

[@shawnsmith9546]

Hey, Will You Ever Do Cobra's "Scrap Iron"?

[@jennninja9986]

Had no idea bench press was rock n roll , we have this figure and always seen him as an Arnold Schwarzenegger style Joe, that version feels like Dutch from predator ! Great video keep em coming!

[@FnRenner]

I don't know. Seems like the better comparison is still with Ventura from Predator. The guns seem more in line with Blain's rather than Dutches.

[@FnRenner]

Damn it, man! Now I want a remake of Evil Dead staring Arnold with a chainsaw!

[@jennninja9986]

Imagine he is in command of a team sent to investigate the evil dead house, now imagine a group of commandos becoming deadites ....yea Arnold with a chainsaw.....we even made bench press a tiny cigar, we just call him Dutch now lol.

[@jennninja9986]

If you want a Jesse/blane figure, get the pursut of cobra recondo thats bald with removable hat, if you have the rise of cobra heavy duty you can steal the backpack and minigun....a bunch of slack jawed f@&&0+$ around here, this combo will make you a sexual tyrannosaurs, just like me !

[@jordanaguero2847]

Awesome vid man! Is Duke next?

[@FnRenner]

Appreciate the video, sir. Keep up the good work!

[@JLSComics]

Karl Renner Thank you Karl

[@carlospointofview]

More GI Joe!!!!

[@pauldewberry4061]

Do one on Dusty and Steeler?

[@jakeproven256]

7:39 that was Duke with scarlett not hawk.

[@wildonutube]

Hawk in 82 came with the mms and was blond

[@jakeproven256]

@@wildonutube I know that I'm making a correction.

[@dawudyelton1392]

do one on the kid from asbury park, he drove the jeep.

[@DavidLLambertmobile]

Clutch later called "Double Clutch".

[@diamondsandgold1993]

5:04 I thought the guy in back was Blowtorch?

[@Zan_Jayna]

Rock n Roll is 'Air Adventurer'. Clutch is 'Land Adventurer'. Snow Job is 'Sea Adventurer'. Grunt is 'Man of Action'. Zartan is 'Master of Disguise'. Destro is 'Torak'. from the 70s 12-inch Joe era.

[@dungeonmaster16]

If they ever bring him into live action I want Jason mamoa as him. Mainly from the new duke comic prepping the new gi Joe continuity with transformers (if didn’t know: image got those two, got Robert Kirkman who wrote invincible/walking dead as lead for new shared universe. He doesn’t write gi Joe and transformed but a comic called void rivals that sets up the energonverse which later those two will be involved seen in transformers, duke and cobra commander comics) rock n roll personality and style I can see Jason pull off well.

[@bluesnake1713]

That whole Gung-Ho's sister gag was twisted.

[@dhazard1976]

Anybody else think that opening pic of Rock n Roll looks alot like Triple H

[@dragonweyr44]

6:05 You know, it would be hard enough to carry ONE of these guns, it would be impossible to carry TWO of them

[@charlesdavis4887]

Agree.

[@dragonweyr44]

@@charlesdavis4887 That's just trying to carry these things, can you imagine trying to fire them at the same time? Roadblock trying to carry and fire a .50 M2 machine gun is stupid enough as it is

[@dubuyajay9964]

@@dragonweyr44 Yet people have done it, such as a certain Texan from WWII and a modified version by a 'Nam vet.

Bench Press was the most recent version of his action figure? Pity.
