So what kind of insignia/logo was that? It looked like in the style of Cobra.

Oh I wonder if this issue suffered from a lack of familiarity with the Revanche logo? New readers who haven't been following ARAH but jumped on the hype train might not realize that we know what to expect from these kinds of facilities and we knew it wasn't a Cobra base. However the animal horror aspect was a new wrinkle in the Revanche model.

I understand why it would make sense to use the SNAKE armor in a base like this, they would just need to modestly alter the plotline to be a Cobra base instead of a Revanche base.

I highly doubt that it would suffer (in what sense?) because of a single logo. If anything, I think it would make a new reader curious to learn more about it, not unlike the mysterious tattoos seen on Snakes Eyes and Storm Shadow in #21.

…or modify the back story (easy enough) of how Snake Armors came to be, and have them be a Cobra customer/Revanche produced partnership product.
