So i have thought about this for years. Cobra is the equal opportunity terrorist organization. There is no racism in cobra. You see all races and both sexes in their ranks. In their need for troops they do not discriminate against any group in their goal for world domination. Cobra Commander is a genius. It gives him unlimited resources.

You could say the same thing for GI JOE, no?

Do you think that Cobra Commander makes the decisions on who to hire, or does he have an HR person advising him of these decisions.

They're not touchy-feely, though. They know that not everyone is capable of accepting, much less embracing, this concept, so all those who can't or won't see themselves as part of the human family (as COBRA defines it) must F*CKING DIE. And that's a WHOLE LOTTA PEOPLE.

That's how COBRA is in my Joe-Verse. It's their basic goal: The unification of the planet into a one-world nation free from racial, religious and other forms of intolerance.

I don't see how they're "Equal opportunity" since they had no Black people for 22 years, and one woman. I mean sure they had an Asian guy and 4 or 5 homosexuals*, but still!

Depends upon how you define evil... Some nations which were branded evil were in some ways quite egalitarian. And it's very common in cartoons and comic books for their to be many female villains sometimes all the way up to the top ranking villain of a given series. Especially in the 80s and early 90s.

Look at the toon and comic. You see different races and sexes. Whole female units in the "siren song episode" & "worlds without end". The comic showed blacks "African Ameri-Cobras" Oh yeah Zandar was totally Gay too. |
