What would happen if his real face reveal or his real identity?

I thought it was revealed in the comics. He looked like a beatnick w/ a fu-man-chu beard.
I think there was a 90's figure that had a removable helmet that showed his face too.

Yes on both counts, though IIRC the '91 figure's face shield was meant to be "permanent", just revealing an obscured glimpse, and the beatnik look was supposed to be a disguise- but of course, I read that AGES ago and didn't read much Joe as it was, so I may be wrong there.

You are correct. We didn't see him without the disguise, but we were able to tell he was Caucasian with brown hair.

Hall of Fame and 1994 Cobra Commander v7 both have short wavy (or greased & combed) black hair and eyebrows...

Also: Cobra Commander v2, v5 (Sonic Fighters), and v6 (Battle Corps) all have black eyes and black eyebrows, which is debatably Hasbro-ese for him having black hair.
Of course he might also dye his hair and wear wigs and such, or in extremis even use plastic surgery like Freds and the Baroness, so really it seems almost impossible to say for sure, at least if incontestable proof is the standard of evidence we demand... |

Here’s CC in “disguise” :
And here’s a flashback from Billy talking about his dad: One thing is certain... CC doesn’t look like any sort of Fred. Billy wouldn’t remember his dad in disguise so I would say that the bottom one is what CC looks like. I actually like this as his true form, because he looks like the part of the sort of dude who started out writing manifestos about how the government is out to screw the little guy and turned it into a pyramid scheme/cult/terrorist organization. Like if he didn’t start COBRA he would be trying to sell his version of “The Turner Diaries” in the classified section of Soldier of Fortune magazine. My big question is if Billy’s last name is Kessler, is that CC’s real name? I like to think that it is, and although I hate Rise of Cobra as much as anyone else, “Rex Kessler” is my head canon name for him because sounds exactly like the name of some manifesto-writing, bad moustache-having, safari jacket and jeans-wearing 80s extremist.

If Cobra Commander was a real dude, this would be him.

As much as I didn’t like the ROC version of CC, I could still see JGL killing it in the role of my Cobra Commander. He’s like Dale Gribble or that one dude you know on Facebook that thinks that the corona virus is an excuse for Bill Gates to put mind control chips into everybody, but instead of just driving his wife crazy he lucked out at every step and as it turns out maybe mind control chips are a pretty good idea after all...
