HELIX Avy Bust

It's no secret that my favorite figure from the new GI Joe ROC line is "Agent HELIX. " Wonderfully stylized, beautifully sculpted, & fully loaded, Helix is one of Hasbro's most dynamic & best ROC offerings of 2009... A debatable "Mary Sue", she was created for the EA ROC video game & amped up n the IDW comic from a martial arts/gymnast to an mysteriously autistic super soldier... When images popped up of the EMO-JOE I knew she was going to have a special place for me, & it seems many others, with her starting rep, unique flare, & good looks, she has truly made a name for herself early on among fandom. Either way I love her & wanted her as my new avatar when I was promoted to mod status (thank you) on the HISS TANK website (best GI Joe site on the web imho) . "You Don't pick the Hiss Tank, the Hiss Tank picks you!!" ...

So here is my "rock star" Helix head-shot in a FISH-EYE style view.

  1. Good job on the art.

    Really not liking the character, though. IDW pulled this crap with that Transformer character Drift, even whoring him out in that kids' book!

  2. Nice artwork - followed this over from hisstank. I think you capture the mystery of her well.

  4. The character is really uninteresting an generic. That comic they gave her was a waste. There are really no other characters more deserving of a one-shot?

    That being said, someone's learning to love her... Check out the Ages 25 & Up story arc that starts from #74 to see what I mean!
