A naked man running around fighting all the women? Something feels weird about that. Right?

Now I'm a little fuzzy on the details but (if I remember correctly) all of those kids were the same DNA mix. Each one had a different name based on the historical donors, even Hannibal, but they were all "backup Serpentors" in case he didn't work out. That's why they were young, they were all immature clones and Hannibal was just the most aged-up after Serpentor. After the Battle of Springfield, the government put them into adoption programs around the country.
Not that this plot twist matches what we know about how Serpentor was made, but whatever. |

So I guess we're going to have to see OG Snake-Eyes show up since everyone else who is always hyped is getting their asses kicked by a naked guy.
Dude even mocked Kamakura. |

I believe that might have been Hannibal in the DDP series where they cloned several kids off of the Serpentor tech and one was named Hannibal.

Here's the cluster-fuck explanation of every Serpentor-related clone prior to now (taken from yojoe.com):
Serpentor is an amalgam of the greatest warriors of history, Julius Caesar, Napoleon, Attilla the Hun, Alexander the Great, Hannibal, Genghis Khan, Ivan the Terrible, Vlad the Impaler and even Storm Shadow. Dr. Mindbender and Destro collected the DNA from all of these leaders (see Marvel GI Joe #49). Mindbender created 12 clones and aged two of them. The DNA was mixed into the aged synthetic clone. One of the clones became the 1st Serpentor. The second one Mindbender changed the look and with Crystal Ball's help programmed a series of post hypnotic triggers into this additional clone. Then Zandar was recruited to create the James Nurss identity that brokered the sale of the altered synthetic to General Gibbs of the Jugglers. The deal was made during the first Cobra Civil War. The 1st Serpentor was killed and that body destroyed in the buried freighter. (See Marvel GI Joe #75 & #126) Later, Cobra Island was seized by the UN and the 10 remaining unaged clones confiscated. The Coil using clandestine operations continued Mindbender's work creating the 2nd Serpentor (actually a new clone), which was eventually beaten and nearly killed by Cobra Commander in the second Cobra Civil War. (See DDP #22-25) The body of that synthetic also came into the control of US government. The US government activated their first synthetic and sent him after Cobra agents, assigning him to lead the GI Joe team and gave him the name General Phillip Rey. (See DDP #36-41) Later, the 2nd Serpentor and Jugglers were killed by the Red Shadows (see DDP #42-43). Eventually, Crystal Ball using the Dr. Stevens identity became Rey's psychologist, but this time Cobra Commander was in charge disguised as the Chief of Staff to the President of the United States. Using one of the post hypnotic triggers they activated Rey and used him to attack the Joes at The Rock (see America's Elite #14). |

Crystal Ball being made so important kinda feels like an inside joke

I wonder if Mindbender would have the newly resurrected Genghis Khan dawn the Serpentor outfit to take control of COBRA. Honestly, I'd go for that and it would make good use of all the Serpentor teases.
Also, Genghis Khan wielding an Alley Viper shield is an interesting visual. |
