Maybe Cobra has bases in every Springfield in the Country.
There's Virginia, Illinois, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts..
Found this on Google:
"It's been said (by Bruce Townley, among others) that
every state in the USA has a Springfield. This isn't
true; 35 states have a Springfield or a close cousin;
but the following states are Springfield-deficient:
Alaska, Arizona, Connecticut, Hawaii, Iowa, Kansas,
Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, North Dakota,
Oklahoma, Rhode Island, Utah, Washington, Wyoming.
(Data from searches on MapQuest)
To make up for this, some states have more than
one Springfield; the number if more than one is
shown in parentheses in the map links below.
According to MapQuest there are 52 Springfields,
five West Springfields, four East Springfields,
four North Springfields, one South Springfield,
one Springfield Crossroads, one Springfield Plantation,
and one Springfield Gardens (not too far from me
in Long Island, New York)."
I could easily work this into my Secret Society angle, since the Society helped form the US and can have there being a Springfield everywhere as the Society establishing their HQs in those areas and when they form Cobra, that's where they establish Cobra.
I thought that in the first (let's say 20) issues, it was mentioned that the Cobra Springfield was in Vermont? Is that right? Can anyone verify that?
However, Troynos, that's not to take away from your idea... every Springfield in America is part of Cobra's network. That's pretty awesome.
