Line 13:
* [[Michael Bell]]
* [[The Hero]]
* [[Not Quite Dead]]: Was originally slated to die in [[The Movie]], but public backlash of [[Transformers:

* [[Sergeant Rock]]
* [[Suspiciously Similar Substitute]]: Originally Duke was supposed to substitute Hawk after Hawk was [[Put
** [[Divergent Character Evolution]]: To differentiate Duke and Hawk, Duke became more of a "tough guy" while Hawk is more of the "veteran" leader. It's still very minor and only noticeable when they are placed together in the same scene.

She was also one in the comics, where her shirt curiously seemed unable to be buttoned up and she was better endowed than the earlier Joe females, Scarlett and Cover Girl. This was toned down when she became more of a desk-driving intelligence officer.
