The name "Cobra-la" was supposed to just be a placeholder name for the secret country where Cobra Commander came from in the tepid GI Joe animated film from the 80's. "Like Cobra came from Shangri-La!" It never got changed to anything better.
Koh-Buru-La is probably just an attempt to make that sorta good.
"What he thinks is a Cobra combat drone is really a living engine of destruction forged in the red glare of a the smelting pits of an impossibly-distant grey world of eternal war." #Swoon
I'll snag this later. The first one was a lot of fun. Originally shared by Android Central Publisher Paradox Interactive has released Knights of Pen & Paper 2 for Android. Fans of table-top RPGs can once again get the full experience on a mobile device. We got a chance to play an early version of this game in March at GDC 2015, and now Knights of Pen & Paper 2 is available for… #android http://www.androidcentral.com/knights-pen-paper-2-brings-role-playing-and-satire-together-android
Okay, Hotline Miami , killing a dude by dumping a pot full of boiling water on his face? Awesome. I still suck at this game though. I'm not twitchy enough.
...koh-buru-lah? What even are they doing there?
ReplyDeleteNo idea but it's awesome. It's like if Jack Kirby and Steranko wrote GI Joe.

Yeah it really channels Kirby
ReplyDeleteOne thinks "Starscream" is a composite of star and scream. But in actual fact it's of stars and cream.
ReplyDeleteStar cream! Delicious
ReplyDeleteI swear a long time ago I talked about how Snake Eyes was a blonde guy in the comics at one point and you didn't believe me.
ReplyDeleteHis mask was blonde... He maybe was before being disfigured, I don't think they ever show his eyes and hair in a flashback.
ReplyDeleteBut in this comic he's not pretty for long...

ReplyDeleteI think I need to pick this one up!
Issue 0 is free on Comixology. That's what this is from. All the writing is like this.
ReplyDeleteThis is also the only time anyone has made Starscream badass. "Paragon of DEATH!"
ReplyDeleteThat art and writing is great.
ReplyDeleteIn a split-second he decides to throw a grenade to the weird-robot ;)
