This is a fantastic Cobra Commander splash page, Judas, congrats on a great acquisition!
Thanks, Ruben! It means alot coming from a proficient collector such as yourself!
Hah ha! I appreciate the compliment, but I'm a regular collector like you. Just trying to find whatever pieces I can to get the most enjoyment from!
No problem! Thanks for the comments and I hope to someday reach your levels of enjoyment!
Nice Cobra Commander!
Thank you. Yes, it's Cobra Commander doing what he does best...retreating from fire fights!
Truly a great opening page, loved this series. Congrats on this really great piece. Such amazing movement and action on this page, Cobra Commander is so well done.
Thank you very much! Yes, even though this an example of a later model 1990's Cobra Commander, it still very much evokes the first year mail away/Sunbow Cobra Commander I grew up with.
Congrats on your first "page 1" - it's definitely worthy of having the the "first" distinction! A dynamic splash for sure with LOTS of detail, and a killer shot of CC. And yes, he's running from the action :) Gottta love the vintage-y feel too with the sound effect and other lettering right there on the page!
Thanks, K! That's led me to take the plunge with this most expensive OA for me to date. It had everything I could ask for in a comic page! It has large art, memorable villains, great action, and awesome text/sound effects. I had to have it!
Maybe try offering him some batteries next time, CC? This is a fantastic splash, made all the better that they are running from a cranky Megatron. Nostalgia blast straight to the cerebral cortex! Great action title splash. You even got some Marvel onomatopoeia. Big congrats!
Thank you, J! Yup, I loved the Megatron name-drop but I am also glad they didn't include him in this splasht/title page since at this point in time he was in his G2 tank form which I am not particularly fond of. It's gun Megatron for me or nothing.
A Cobra retreat the only way the early 90s can do it! Congratulations!
Thank you, John! I can hear Chris Latta yelling "Cobra...retreat!" for Cobra Commander.
Fantastic page - I love that it's the hooded version of Cobra Commander too. Can't help but think of those great figure mail aways. Congrats on an awesome pick up!
Thank you, Nathan. I fondly remember those mail aways as well. I loved mailing away for the Cobra H.I.S.S tank and the Joe Wolverine tank.
Yowza that's an awesome splash! Bravo!
Thanks, Jason!
Cobra!
"Retreat!"
Go Joe!
Ridiculous page, my friend!
Thank you, Steve!
Stunning page!!!
Thanks, Dietmar! It is quite exceptional if I do say so myself!
Great opening splash page! Congrats!
Thank you very much, Mr. Un-Jolly Green Giant!
Wow! Fantastic splash page, congrats! The art is great, and Cobra Commander's dialog is perfect.
Thanks! Yeah, Cobra Commander is at his scheming best in this page.
Fantastic page with Cobra Commander in action.
Thank you! Personally I can hear Chris Latta in my head screaming, "Cobra, retreat!"
That's a special pages,
Thank you very much! I wholeheartedly agree that's why I jumped at the opportunity to purchase it when I saw it.
This is amazing!
Yes, it is an excellent combination of action, text and characters. Thanks!
Fantastic Cobra Commander splash page!
Thank you very much! I would have to agree with you!
Awesome page, love the artwork!
Thank you very much!
Thanks! It is definitely an example of great 90's art!
Amazing!
I'd buy that for a dollar!
