# Talk:Captain Commando (character)

What's the connection between Captain Commando and Bionic Commando? If Bionic Commando ends in 198X and Captain Commando is born in the year 2000, it is likely that Radd (Ladd) Spencer is Captain Commando's father, I think.

There is no connection. It's just a coincidence. Besides, "Bionic Commando" is known as "Top Secret" in Japan (and thus has no relation to "Senjou no Okami", AKA: "Commando").

I translated and read the French Wikipedia article for Captain Commando, and it tells that Captain Commando appeared in Capcom's 1985 title, Section Z, but he looked very different compared to his current look.  Is this a coincidence?

More than merge to Captain Commando, better improve this article. I don't want it happened the same than Jin Saotome (merged to Cyberbots article).

Objecting to it: he existed well before the game did, and being a mascot there has to be *something* discussing the character's design and creation as well as reception. This kind of stuff wouldn't belong in the video game article.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 03:04, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

I chainsawed most of the original article, removing some of the fanwankery, while adding separate sections covering the mascot and the video game character individually, and I still don't see the purpose of keeping a separate article for the video game and the character. His appearance as a mascot in the packaging of early games is trivial at best and all of his video game appearances are based on the Captain Commando rendition of his character anyway.

No objection at this point. It might help to buffer the video game's article if done: I was hoping we'd luck out like we did with Poison but that doesn't seem to be the case.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 15:36, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
