If the Earth ended up full of metal and resembles Unicron, he would eat it. So, modern man's technology dominating the world and some Cybertronian TRANSFORMERS on it, it was more than Golobulous would bear. It was time to use natural tech to take over world. And hurry it up before Unicron gets to return.

I made a story that Cobra La was actually short for Cobra Laboratories and was led by Dr. Golobulus. He illegally experimented on Cobra soldiers and made the Cobra La “race” as we saw them in the movie. The ancient race thing was a made up fantasy from Golobulus actually going insane. Cobra Commander was financing the lab but Golobulus used the retreat in the beginning of the movie as a chance to gain control of Cobra. No one else but Cobra Commander knew of Cobra Laboratories and their experiments.

I wrote three “sequels” to the Joe movie and series which sort of reimagines the concept and idea of Cobra La and Golobulus. Golobulus was in reality a former Nazi scientist, bought over to the U.S after WW2 with Operation Paperclip and used to work with the U.S government. After it was discovered he was experimenting on human subjects in the early 1960s, he went into hiding taking some die hard followers with him and ultimately taking up refuge in the Himalayas where he created the society he would later dub “Cobra La”. Many sought out this secret society, while others were taken there against their will and were forced to join his ranks. The woman who would later become Pythona was one such person who willing went in an attempt to escape the Chinese mafia. One who was forced to join was the giant of man know as Nemesis Enforcer who was sent by the mafia to bring Pythona back. His mind nearly destroyed by the changes enforced by Golobulus, he ultimately became Cobra La’s dominate fighting machine. As the 1980s began, and as his society continued to grow and flourish, so did Golobulus’ ambitions and goals. He knew he needed an army to achieve these things. He set his sights on Cobra, and devised a plan to acquire the terrorist organization for his own. Infect Cobra Commander with the same organism he would later use on Mindbender to create Serpentor, alter his memories, make him believe the lies as portrayed in the Joe film about Cobra La’s ancient past and his connection to him, and this would solidify Golobulus’ position as the supreme ruler of the Cobra forces without debate from the rest of the Cobra hierarchy. He would then replace Cobra Commander with Serpentor (as he did in Arise, Serpentor, Arose!) and his control of Cobra would be complete... The stories I wrote deal with Cobra Commander ultimately retrieving his true memories (which more resemble the comics), learning the truth of Cobra La and it’s true origins, hunting down Golobulus and the final confrontation between the Commander and Serpentor...

I was a kid watching Transformers the movie in the theater and I couldn't believe they killed off my favorite characters. Why? Then it occurred to me: To sell more more toys. Imagine 9 year old me, huge fan and them destroying everything I loved about Transformers. Prime was basically Robot Jesus to me. Realizing they just emotionally scarred me to sell me more plastic...I was livid. I never bought any more Transformers. I stopped being a fan. It took 20 years before I could even appreciate the amazing art in that movie. Then they did it again with GI Joe the Movie. Less emotionally involved, I bought the new character pack (giant half snake man was kinda cool next to my other action figures). But they were the last GI Joe toys I bought. In an attempt to sell me more stuff I stopped loving their shows. I stopped buying their toys. They got a small sale but destroyed my love and fandom. Cobra Commander was gone. Replaced. They didn't kill Duke but it was obvious they were going to. And Globulus and CobraLa were stupid names. Hasbro should have listened to their writers. As an adult I understand why they did it. It's a business. But I want toy makers to think about their fans before short term profits. Fans can easily move on and leave your plastic to the toy bin of history.

A comic book miniseries combined the villains of both TRANSFORMERS: The Movie (Unicron) and G.IJOE: The Movie (Cobra-La).

I know people hate Golobulus and all of Crobra-La (for good reason) but honestly I always found the idea really neat, pitting these slightly futuristic military men against an ancient civilisation that they can't even comprehend. I think if they hadn't tied it so directly to Cobra it would've worked

Learn alot from your uploads. Had the A.G.P. and Nullifier did look kinda strange.

Imagine if Kazuaki Kiriya did his take on Cobra-la, that would be trippy.

Ahhh yes!!! “Magnificent Fungazoids”. I suspect the writers room had a few “plants” in them.

Golobulus let Cobra Commander and Serpentor do their things till he couldn't put up with anymore failures. He sent Pythona to the surface to send a little message to Cobra.
