I don't really have a joeverse personally, but if I did, it would lean heavily towards the comics. I didn't watch the cartoons as a kid, and when I eventually did, I found them incredibly stupid.
Even though I'm not a fan of Serpentor, I might make him still be alive though, instead of having taken an arrow to the face. He'd probably be a general, leading the troops into battle. |

In my universe Serpentor is the leader of a cult called the order of cobra-la think the order of the golden dawn or the order of the solar temple. He truly believes that he is the reincarnation of history's greatest generals, and that he can lead the way to Cobra Commander's dream of total freedom thru subjugation.

In my Joeverse, Cobra Commander wanted a field general who was absolutely loyal (Bludd being loyal only to money) so he has Mindbender brainwash an accomplished Columbian general named Philip Rey. From there it plays out more or less like Serpentor's original origin, which Mindbender and Destro planning to use Serpentor to wrestle power away from Cobra Commander for their benefit.
Since Mindbender is deranged (look at how he dresses!), he makes Serpentor believe he is the reincarnation of history's greatest leaders, which leads to Serpentor deciding to crown himself emperor of Cobra. Eventually this will lead to the Cobra Civil War, but I haven't decided if Serpentor will die from Zartan's arrow to the face, die some other way, or live to fight another day. I'll probably end up with him falling off a cliff, presumed dead, but body not found. You know, typical villain stuff. So kinda like the comic and sorta like the toon with brainwashing in place of cloning.

I actually liked Serpentor in the comics a lot. His origins and how he won over the will of the Commander's army as he defended their escape from Springfield was amazing. All his machinations to sidebar Cobra Commander and the civil war that erupted because of it are some of my favorite comic story lines right up to and including his death. I think a mixture of this and the adventures getting all the DNA in the cartoon worked great for my personal canon.

Mine is a strategist and military adviser to CC. Serpentor is designed to be fiercely loyal to CC and actively works with the Shadow Guard (Cobra's secret police) to ensure that no one ursurps his authority. He also arranges rallies to motivate the base Cobra troops (which is the purpose behind his elaborate uniform).

In my joeverse, he lost the Cobra civil war, but managed to get away. He now leads a small mercenary group of disaffected former Cobra members and goes by the name of Overlord.

In my Joeverse, it went like the official story until the movie. Serpentor was eventually victorious over the Commander for the hearts and minds of the Cobra hierarchy, but since they always plot against each other no matter who was head Snake, Serpentor found this distasteful and left the politics of Cobra to the Commander while Serpentor led the armies of Cobra. Thinking that a true leader knows when to delegate, he allowed this to happen and thinks that he's got the Commander on a leash, but they're equally powerful components of Cobra and it's only a matter of time until the Commander has all the power again.
