It seems as though Marvel animation at some point said, as a company, "Aha- we have made G.I. Joe and our skills are complete! We shall progress no further!"

I think the more titles J. Michael Straczynski writes, the better off Marvel is. He is one of the best things going for them right now, along with Peter David.
David: Friendly Neighborhood Spiderman, Straczynski: Amazing Spiderman, Fantastic 4, Squadron Supreme (shipping in a few months, pick up the Supreme Power: Hyperion mini, if you can), and Book of Lost Souls (very dark, in the vein of Sandman)
I too, am amazed at the crappy animation of Marvel's tv products. Heck, even the Teen Titans series, which was heavily influenced by Anime, was VASTLY superior to anything Marvel's got going. My goodness, the other day I was watching X-Men and couldn't believe it was made in 1999. Thought it was something from 1983. Very poor.

I'll have to check some out- recommendations?

LOL!! I think GI Joe (the 80's version) is better than what they're doing now...
