Trivia
This mini-series marks the first appearance of Cobra Commander in his ceremonial hood. In the comics, he has worn the hood since the first issue of the Marvel series.

Goofs
While they are fighting in the arena of sport, Duke and Snake-Eyes overhear Cobra Commander plotting to attack Washington DC. This should be impossible since they are hundreds of yards from the Commander's *glass-encased booth* and thus shouldn't be able to hear a word he's saying. On the other hand, perhaps the Commander left the PA system on, which begs the question: Why would he do that?

Alternate versions
The home video version cuts one scene from the TV mini series: After Lady Jaye asks Sparks to put a tracer on Cobra Commander's speech and Clutch says "yeah, all you need is a garbage detector", there is a quick shot of Gung-Ho, Cover Girl & Tripwire laughing that has been omitted from the video.

Love it

This was the miniseries that hooked me in 1984, and I'm still watching it now. I appreciated Chris Latta's work so very much, and it was on fully display in this one. Extremely well written story & dialogue, and delivered beautifully by the best voiceover ensemble ever assembled.
