Timeline of events from GIJoe Volume 1, Issues 145 to 151 Created by Todd Weinzierl for Magnum6Delta.com. Write-ups compliments of Cobra Commander leads an invasion into the former nation of Borovia, now Borigia/ Krazny-Marengo. A pair of Vipers have captured Magda and the White Clown. President Metz promises them a fair trial, put Cobra Commander shoots and kills them. In Trans-Carpathia, Zartan, Destro and Baroness watch the happenings in the neigh- boring Borigia/Krazny-Marengo, when Billy arrives at the castle. Dr. Mindbender explains to Cobra Com- mander that he has placed implants in both Destro and Zartan allowing them to be placed under Cobra’s control. The sight of Cobra Commander’s unmasked face activates these implants. In New Jersey, Zarana returns to the Dreadnoks and rides off into the night with them. Destro, Zartan, Baroness and Billy are having dinner when Cobra Commander inter- rupts, showing them his face. In Trans-Carpathia, Destro and Zartan are now back under the control of Cobra due to Dr. Mindbender’s implants. Baroness and Billy attempt to escape, but are captured when Destro transforms the castle, drop- ping them out of their hiding places. Cobra Commander debates which nation he should attack next, and Destro sug- gests Wolkekuckuckland, for it’s bank- ing and an industrial base, which could be converted to produce Cobra weapons. Hawk and Stalker are in Wolkekuck- uckland, serving as military advisors for General Liederkranz and his assistant Wolfgang. Liederkranz explains that he is worried, as Cobra has taken over Bo- rovia, which is only two countries away. The two countries in between are Trans-Carpathia and Darklonia. At that moment, Destro launches a missile at the Darklonian castle, killing Darklon. Liederkranz and Hawk realize that Destro is no longer idle in Trans-Carpathia. Zartan and Destro lead a procession of weapons through Darklonia. The Dark- lonians saw what happened to Darklon and are afraid to stop them. Hawk and Stalker see this and report back to General Liederkranz. The General doesn’t want to listen to Hawk’s advice until he threatens to leave Destro and Cobra Commander prepare their attack into Wolkekuckuckland. Co- bra Commander goes up the center, and Destro and Zartan are to flank them from the sides. Hawk has prepared for this, as the side Destro was going to attack is just fake tanks made out of cargo containers, fuel drums, and telephone poles, enabling the General to concentrate his resources elsewhere. Cobra Commander is forced to retreat. Zartan and Destro figure out that Liederkranz is out of fuel, so they press forward on their invasion. At that moment, Wolfgang arrives back with a fleet of fuel tanks bought in Darklonia. In Wolkekuckuckland, the Joes try to stop the invasion, but are not completely successful. Cobra Commander, Destro, Dr. Mindbend- er and Zartan are discussing their plans to take over “W-Land,” and Lady Jaye and Flint overhear them.The sight of Cobra Commander’s unmasked face activates these implants. Meanwhile in Trans-Carpathia, Billy is being subjected to more sessions of the Brainwave Scanner, which he is resisting better than anyone has seen. Cobra Com- mander returns to Trans-Carpathia to check on the progress of the Brainwave scanner. Billy tells Cobra Commander that Baroness is planning an escape attempt, which is stopped. As Billy is showing Cobra Commander a secret portion of Destro’s castle, he escapes and launches a missile, which is shot down by a Viper. Storm Shadow and Cover Girl are monitoring the situa- tion back at the Pit. Cobra Commander drags Billy back down to the Brainwave Scanner for more treatments. Storm Shadow travels to the High Sier- ras to visit Snake-Eyes and Scarlett, but isn’t clear on why. After Scarlett leaves the two alone, Storm Shadow informs Snake-Eyes that Billy has been captured, and it is his duty to go save them. Scarlett is upset that Storm Shadow is trying to pull Snake-Eyes back into ac- tion, but Storm Shadow says he has just come to say good bye. Cobra Commander tests a new body armor that can be worn underneath his normal uniform. Storm Shadow jumps out a train window in Trans-Carpathia, but his attempt to sneak into the castle and rescue Billy is tracked by Dr. Mindbender. Cobra Commander am- bushes Storm Shadow with a Cyber Space Matrix, which nullifies Storm Shadow’s sensory advantage. Cobra Commander is able to defeat Storm Shadow with the help of his new body armor. Storm Shadow is strapped into the Brainwave Scanner along with Billy and Baron- ess. Cobra Commander states that Slice and Dice have outlived their usefulness and subjects them to the Cyber Matrix. Using the Detonator, Snake-Eyes ap- proaches the castle and blows open the main doors. Snake-Eyes fights his way through the castle to Cobra Commander, who attempts to confuse Snake- Eyes with the Cyber Matrix. Snake-Eyes is able to defeat Cobra Commander, but then Dr. Mindbender, Billy, Baroness and Storm Shadow confront him. Storm Shadow attacks Snake-Eyes, but Snake-Eyes uses Cobra Commander as a human shield. Snake-Eyes (with Cobra Commander as his prisoner) makes it out of the castle where Flint and Lady Jaye are waiting for him. Storm Shadow chases them, but Flint tosses Cobra Commander off the side of a cliff. Storm Shadow swings down and rescues Cobra Commander, as the Joes try and make their escape. In Borovia, Wolfgang plants a bomb in the presidential palace, and then gives a watch to Presi- dent Metz. As the President ap- proaches the bomb, it detonates, killing him. “Wolfgang” is re- vealed to have been Zartan, and he reports to Cobra Commander that the mission was successful. The real Wolfgang is caught, and hoisted up in the air as a hero to the people of Borovia. Back in Trans-Carpathia, Hawk calls in asking for help, and Joseph Colton fires the Rapid Pulse Electron beam from New York City, ricochets it off two satellites, and destroys the bridge in front of the pursuing Cobras, allowing the Joes to make their escape. This is the last we see of COBRA Renewed in the series..
