Lil Formers #199: Cobra III
Part three of Destro’s unfortunate dealings with Cobra Commander. (Read part 1 and part 2 if you haven’t before).
Again, this one is inspired by a now year-old conversation with Transformers colorist Josh Perez. He’s nuttier than Chinese chicken salad.
Next week, Lil Formers #200…

XD
Poor Destro!
I wonder if you’re doing something special for Lilformers 200 (aka, Lilformer’s 4th milestone)… maybe a flash short? (if you have Flash) Hey even, VGCats 100 did a flash short, why not lil formers.

That’s right, Destro! Go join up with Miles Mayhem. He’ll probably hook you up with one of those awesome flying cars. But your helmet would be problematic…cuz…y’know…you’re already wearing one. Oh well. choices, choices.

I thought the expert on snakes would be Samuel L. Jackson.
August 16th, 2010 at 7:09 am
WooHoo! 200! THIS…IS…LIL’FORMERS!!!
August 16th, 2010 at 9:37 am
Genius Matt. Simply Genious!
Now you just gotta work in the snake dude from He-man (as the victim of said gun?).

Matt , that third panel XD
*looks for the perfect english words, but comes up empty*
love the whole thing but that panel is
*____(inserts every word in the human language for everything cool)_____*
Jag
*someone needs to cast Jarkes as a Cobra Footsoldier who survives being shot by Shipwreck XD in Gijoe 2- the movie*
LOL

Poor Destro will feel disappointed after finding VENOM is part of Cobra now (see Matt Trakker’s filecard)

@Raymond T.:
No, the THIS. IS. SPARTA! joke would be more appropriate for Lilformers #300.
@Jag:
Thanks… I guess…
Also, I have no idea who V.E.N.O.M. is… could you please explain?
August 16th, 2010 at 11:59 am
Wait, I would think King Hiss from He-Man would be better than Serpentor in panel 4.
@Jarkes
V.E.N.O.M. is the group who opposes the titular team of M.A.S.K. You can google it from there.
August 16th, 2010 at 12:26 pm
@Dupul, that would be King Hiss, yeah the guy whose designed his base to look like a bunch of giant snakes and have them spew out lava. He was a snake, never understood monster guys designing their buildings, vehicles, and weapons to look like their order of animals, it would be like a human having ape statues, monkey guns, and a building shaped like a giant man or something.
PS: Loved Serpentore, the concept was insane, until the movie I never understood why Cobra Commander would even allow a plan to create a guy who would naturally usurp him, but Serpentore belonged to that small group of villains who could actually pull off a goofy look and still be threatning.

@ bill :
please note NO ONE CARES about venom because it was a [censored] series.so much so that they lost their minds making a laughing stock out of genetics …. seriosly who in their right mind would do that >_> .
an i dont think i every would have seen my beloved Emperor be more wimpish than ole’ Chrome Dome ( cringes in the corner)
“mommy please make the bad things go away ! ! !”
@ Jarkes :
oh come on if we cast you in JOE 2 the first person i expect you to take out as a Cobra Trooper is M.Night Shamaboo for destroying Avatar the same way that Schumacher destroyed the BATMAN franchise … hell ill pay you in hawt Cobra girls =] and joe POW’s ( jane, scarlette , covergirl) if they arent good enough for you ^__^
Jag
@ Rhuen :
Chrome dome getting Pimpslapped at the intro was perfect
“do as your’e told like an obedient LACKEY ” XD
August 16th, 2010 at 2:21 pm
This is awesome. Are you going to be at PAX?
August 16th, 2010 at 2:27 pm
So it shoots snakes that turn people into more snakes?
I find myself wondering whether the people turned into snakes can then go on to turn other people into snakes.
August 16th, 2010 at 2:51 pm
Awesome! Matt, please continue your great work… ‘THIS, I COMMAND!’
August 16th, 2010 at 8:05 pm
The image stopped loading just above his head, and I was so sure it was gonna be a certain Megaman villain that I almost didn’t bother reloading.
Snake Man is one of my earliest childhood memories, and at the age of 22 I still can’t beat his stage.
August 16th, 2010 at 8:37 pm
Oh My XD
Serpentor lives XD
huahahahahaa
(I ask me about Cobra Commander in the new G.i. Joe cartoon…)
August 16th, 2010 at 9:14 pm
@Jarkes
Does that make Lilformers#200 the “Lil Formers Thunder”? (Homestar Runner reference to Email Thunder)
August 16th, 2010 at 11:04 pm
That is an awesome short. Fantastic M.A.S.K reference. Look forward to every week with the site, keep up the great work Matt.
August 17th, 2010 at 11:41 am
This keeps getting funnier and funnier. Also the characterization of CC here reminds me of Lundberg from Office Space. LOL!
August 17th, 2010 at 5:27 pm
Destro’s looking a little hopeless in that last panel…
August 17th, 2010 at 7:34 pm
Sweet.
August 18th, 2010 at 5:20 pm
And the result of this is SNAKEMAN!!!, he looks like a snake, AND best of AAAALL, HE SHOOTS SNAKES!!! XD
August 18th, 2010 at 8:01 pm
Destro can’t wait for the Gold Plastic Syndrome to kick in!
August 19th, 2010 at 1:38 pm
BRING ON PART 4!!!!!!!!!!
August 23rd, 2010 at 1:48 am
Hey Matt, Jason From AZ again, I thought of something you forgot to add to the Snake Laser…a Wicker Basket it can pop out of…Another comic I would love to see you do is when the Bad Guy has the Win, the Good guy is Dead if he just stays there, instead they leave them with Zippy The Pin Head Henchman, Who scored like 4 on his S.A.Ts
September 23rd, 2010 at 1:28 am
Poor Destro, he never gets a break…
@Bill: Or Wrath-Amon (from the Conan the Barbarian cartoon) for that matter
