>>109572462Literally Hasbro coming in and saying "so now you're going to introduce the Cobra Emperor". Even the writers were floored. "WHAT fucking Cobra Emperor, we kind of made it obvious that Cobra is commanded by the guy named Cobra COMMANDER".
Hasbro's response was pretty much "not our problem lol you figure it out". The writers pretty much made two origin concepts: the one that you know where Serpentor is made from all the greatest military leader DNA, and one where he was part of an ancient race of Snake People from the lost city of Cobra-La. "Which origin should we use" says the writers.
"Perfect," Hasbro says in that tonedeaf way they did at the time, "use both of them."
