Marco has blonde choppy hair with a large forelock in front and turquoise eyes (or just black pupils in some artwork). His military gear is a white headband, a white sleeveless shirt, a crimson vest, khaki-green army cargo-pants, and brown paratrooper boots. Usually he wears black wristbands, but some artwork has with black gloves.
Marco's physique is based on that of Sylvester Stallone's titular hero from Rambo III, & his looks bare a strong resemblance to David Bowie.

In addition to this, Marco's hair, headband and uniform appear to be modeled after Snake and Bart from SNK's 1988 arcade beat 'em up Datsugoku: P.O.W.

he does look similar to Charlie Nash from capcom's Street Fighter alpha games
Charlie wears green cargo pants with green boots of the same color and yellow flak vest. He has glasses, which he takes off before a fight, & an exaggerated hairstyle consisting of a large forelock of blond hair. The glasses are not necessary for him to see.

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine. Do you know that the orange lodges agitated for repeal of the union twenty years before O’Connel did or before the prelates of your communion denounced him as a demagogue? You fenians forget some things. (James Joyce, Ulysses. Penguin Books,1992. p. 38)
