Fred designed the suit FOR Cobra Commander. Cobra Commander wore it once and attacked the Joe convoy with the Pogo. Billy came out of his coma, so CC decided to turn over a new leaf. Fred became enraged that CC would leave Cobra and shot him in the back. Fred then decided to wear the suit himself and become Cobra Commander.
Raptor knew. Captain Minh knew. Fred gave him a hydrofoil to keep him quiet. The Baroness knew, and later told Destro. They retired and didn't care. Dr. Mindbender and Serpentor found out with their Spy BAT. Serpentor was killed by Zartan, and Dr. Mindbender struck a deal w/ Fred not to tell if he let him keep Serpentor's body. k.... so it seems EVERYONE knew. lol. So if they all knew, then who were they keeping it a secret from? |

For those who may not know: The freighter was the original ship Cobra was on when Cobra Island was formed due to the Joes setting off so many explosives on the fault line. Cobra Island rose underneath the freighter leaving it land locked and the first structure on Cobra Island. Cobra used it as their HQ until the Terror Drome and other structures were built. CC (Fred) used it as his HQ during the Cobra Civil War. After Serpentor was killed and the Civil War was over, Fred, Dr. Mindbender, Raptor, Firefly, Zartan, Billy, Tyrone*, and a few unlucky Vipers were trapped inside by the REAL CC when he returned. He set off pre planted explosions that created a canal that floated the freighter inside the volcano which collapsed on top of the freighter. Everybody died from surplus spoiled C-Rations, except for Firefly who repaired damaged BATS from the Civil War and used them to dig a way out in secret. Firefly put his uniform on the Serpentor body so nobody would know he left. Zartan and Billy also escaped, but I can't remember how. They may have finally dug their own way out. Dr. Mindbender was later cloned by Cobra Commander to help him with the Decepticons. *Tyrone was a street kid that the Blind Master took in. Zartan killed the Blind Master and was posing as him out of guilt. That's why Tyrone was on Cobra Island with Zartan.

It would have made a lot of sense for the Fred series CG faces to be based off the real CC's face. That way he would have plenty of doubles and he could disappear if he needed to, but it was revealed not to be the case when The Baroness knew Fred wasn't the real CC. It was later confirmed by Hama that the Fred series faces were NOT based on CC's face.
That still leaves the unanswered question: Who's face were the Fred series based off of and why? Since it's a new continuity, we may never know.

Other then all of cobras troops eventually everyone knew including fred viii who is the one that helped cc come back. Zartan and billy used the arashikage mindset to not starve to death till they got out. Firefly was the only one that used the b.a.t.s to dig out(refurbished bats). Everyone else on the freighter died.

Before visiting that institute in Switzerland, SE was so disfigured that he would cause nausea whe unmasked. He got himself all fixed up only to have the Paine brothers F him up again, but not like he had been.

I always thought the Fred face was based on the first Fred (who died in the Sierra mountains). I seem to remember Fred II being sent to replace Fred I, and his kids were happy to see daddy home -- but wait, that's not daddy. Maybe I'm mixing up my Freds, I don't remember positively right now. I was just reading the older Marvel run a few months ago.
As for the toy, I'm a little miffed that Hasbro didn't go with the right hair color (or the right face) for the unmasked CG. |

I always thought the new Fred sculpt looked like our current president (which brought no end of amusement to me and my more nerdy coworkers).
