Cobra's Creatures

1st of 55 episodes in Sunbow season 1. Written by Kimmer Ringwald. First aired September 30, 1985.









Preceded by: Sunbow Season 1 Opening Sequence
Next episode: Countdown for Zartan

Cobra abducts Rip Cord, Mutt, and Junkyard from a flight test and brings them to a castle where scientist Dr. Lucifer has prepared a Hi-Freq device capable of controlling animals. Using Junkyard as a test subject, Cobra sets Junkyard after his master. As the dog chases Mutt into the swamps, Cobra uses Hi-Freq to threaten energy sources and national capitals with wild animals. Cobra Commander then demands the release of various imprisoned criminals, one of whom is Dr. Lucifer's only love, Professor Attila.

Scarlett poses as Attila to infiltrate the castle but is quickly found out and imprisoned along with Rip Cord. She is able to activate a homing signal that allows the Joes to locate the castle. As Mutt tires from being hunted by Junkyard, Spirit and Snake-Eyes free the captive Joes, and Flint leads an assault on the castle immediately thereafter. Hi-Freq is ultimately destroyed, returning Junkyard and the other animals to normal, and Dr. Lucifer is captured and placed in jail alongside the real Prof. Attila.

Notes

  • On the DVDs from Shout! Factory, this episode is included in the Season 1.1 set (Disc 4, Episode 6).
  • First appearances (in order): The Mauler and Silver Mirage.
  • This episode appears to have been produced before The Pyramid of Darkness: Snake-Eyes is in his blue outfit from The Revenge of Cobra, and the only post-TROC appearances are from the Mauler and Silver Mirage, which seem to be unfinished designs.
