Talk:Doctor Mindbender

Negative stereotyping controversy
Somebody should write a section detailing the controversy surrounding Mindbender as a supposedly negative portrayal of homosexuals. The assertion being that his colorful clothing (especially his metal-studded suspenders) are a stereotyped parody of dress associated with gay men. This understandably led some to believe that his foppishness (in addition to being a member of the "evil" Cobra) serve to parody and denomize gays. I'd do it myself, but I haven't the time right now to do it properly (or even find references). 32.141.169.5 (talk) 20:18, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

Saving The Earth
"G.I.Joe And The Transformers" #4, April 1987. Minbender saves the Earth from destruction. For of course, not-wanting-to-die reasons but still. Very noteable, I just have no clue where to put it in. Lots42 (talk) 02:52, 9 August 2010 (UTC)
