I....hmm. I like it. It has potential for a 'non battle' CC. That or a Playboy-Viper. ANd, I have to say, I was never a fan of the Hood. WAY too easy to take off if you're trying to hide your face. But a explosives laden piece of tamper proof headgear? Pure win. Wheres the hole for the straw?

I picked up the first three trades and enjoyed them alot. Besides the redesigns on a few of the characters, I think the series is incredible. Visually I hated the COBRA miniseries, however it's one of the best stories I have read in years. That to me is what Joe comics should be. Alot of people were complaining about the mystery behind Cobra, and that the Joes didn't know abou them at first. Personally, I thought it was great.
And the line the Baroness gives in #10 or 11, when she mentions they have a cure for Cancer and Destro says they could make millions selling it and she goes "why, we make billions not selling it" That gives you an idea of the strength and power of the new cobra organization. I also love that Dixon gets time involved. Flint is in Patagonia and calls the Joes to come down. It takes hours (like it would in reality) for them to get there, so they're too late to stop the cobras from ransacking the place. Then it takes hours to get Brainstorm's team down there and the group is in the air for awhile on the way back. Love that attention.

I doubt CC would wear that into battle. Probably just one of many costumes.

wow. just wow. and not a good wow. it's a bad wow. a real bad wow. hey, guys, know what would look cool? Cobra Commander relaxing in a smokers jacket, turtle neck, and puffing a cigar in a cigar lounge. ooh, how menacing.
anyone have any links to any other IDW character designs? I'm curious to see what other mess they have made of the characters. If this Cobra Commander is Cobra Commander from Operation HISS, than it looks WAY better than the movie version. |

I like this look personally, i think it's a step in the right direction. Jet Set Cobra Commander looks like a bond villain, like he should be lounging on his yacht, monologue-ing while Duke and Scarlett dangle over a vat of mutant sharks with frickin' lasers on their heads! Or he could be a member of The Guild of Calamitous Intent...Go Team Venture!
I mean, imho, I don't think CC should really have a "Battle Suit", thats what minions are for....soaking up bullets. At the same time, his blue army pajamas ala v1 and v2 make him look weird...like he's wearing some kind of Castro influenced "speed suit". So yeah, i welcome this version and hope for it to be immortalized in plastic. Quote:
This design rocks! Modern elements, classic elements. We have the domed helmet devoid of any facial features. The fangs are a nice touch. Were you guys seriously expecting the classic costume to reappear? C'mon now. This is Cobra Commander as a wealthy, egomaniacal terrorist. He operates from the shadows. If you wanted people to fear you, would you dress up as a clown?
I approve this design 100%! (ok, the turtle neck is a bit odd...)

Looks like Roll-On Deodorant Man.
I really never imagined the headwear as a fishbowl with a helmet on top. |

Well, I can appreciate what they were trying to do here, with the monotone clothing scheme and all...
But I have to agree with some of the others about the turtle neck. Whether it be CC or Serpentor, it just doesn't say "You will fear me, and like it!"... It says more like "C'mon baby, you know you like me... Please?" And the combo of the long coat, the boots, AND the turtle neck sort of gives me the image of the fireplace in the library at Destro's castle, with CC holding a cigar, saying "I say, Destro old chap, shall be hunting pheasant today, or would venison suit your dinner palette better?"
