The 1980s cartoon “G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero” brought toy giant Hasbro‘s action figures to life, featuring the eponymous military unit fighting the ruthless (and eccentric) terrorist group Cobra.
The show’s primary villain was Cobra Commander (Christopher Collins), and he was an enigma, even hiding his face behind a mask. That meant “G.I. Joe: The Movie” had a wide open door to reveal the Commander‘s origin in a wide left turn. The Commander actually came from Cobra-La, a prehistoric civilization that ruled the Earth with bio-mechanical machines before humankind evolved. The Ice Age destroyed Cobra-La, but survivors retreated to the Himalayas and waited patiently to retake the world.
