I've always felt he was Black too. Technically his suit is black.
But also, I've always thought his shirt was yellow, not flesh tone.
I'm an expert. ;)

In the cartoon, Destro was voiced by Arthur Burghardt, who is definitely black:

Yes but Darth Vader was voiced by James Earl Jones and was most certainly White and emo too.

unless he has a tight fitting shirt that shows off every muscle and and vein, I seriuously doubt it.
besides, they showed him as "WHITE" in the comics. he also resides from scotland.
Im a GI JOE EXPERT. I have over 5000 figures.

If only you knew bro.

Come to the convention in Atlanta, I'll see you there.
but yeah you're right in the hama lore the guy is from scotland.
I'll give you that.
but, does that mean there are no scottish black folks?
in the VVV / Devils Due lore I think he's black though.
But then VVV was a mess kinda.
alot of us here at the office have always felt he was black.
Really though, THE GUYS FACE IS METAL

Destro's ancestory goes back many centuries in scotland, and they all done some type of mask. so, chances are there werent any blacks in his family (I do believe his ancestory dates back to the 12th century).
In some joe comics, they showed him without the mask, and he was white.

bro, MARVEL went by HASBRO'S word. nothing was done without Hasbro's approval. if destro was drawn white, then he was white. no "ifs, ands, or buts" about it.

Marvel and Hasbro says he is white, and he's white.
besides, I really doubt any blacks owned anything in 12th century scotland, especially a castle.
HAHAHA!! DESTRO CARES NOT! PASS THE GRAVY! (http://www.cracked.com/index.php?name=News&sid=367)

OK, seriously - this guy is a polar expert. How many black people to you know that like the snow/cold climate? I know none, not a single one. The black friends and relatives in my life have all complained constantly about the cold and wore 40% more clothing than necessary in such situations. OK, maybe one black guy I can think of, and he was whiter than most white people I've met.
Perhaps Iceberg fits this bill. My bet is he's boring as shit to hang out with.
