    Cobra Commander #2 certainly didn't start off slow, but this was another issue that breezed by far too quickly. This creative team is creating a must-read where the next installment can't arrive soon enough. This book probably needs to come with a warning that it contains highly addictive material that's barely satiated with a 30-day fix. Read Full Review

    Cobra Commander #2 is another fantastic issue that continues to cement the Energon Universe as the best comic universe on the market right now. What Skybound and the creators have done is to give properties that have been around decades a shot in the arm, a hell of a new kick off. This comic is a prefect example of that, mixing in old and new to make long time fans happy, welcome new ones, and keep everyone guessing what will happen next. Read Full Review

    Cobra Commander #2 is an amazing ride from beginning to end. You are so immersed in the experience created that when you reach the end, you're left with the feeling of wanting to read more. Getting the reader to feel this way shows the home run hit by Joshua Williamson and Andrea Milana. Read Full Review

    COBRA COMMANDER #2 proves to be an entertaining and surprisingly violent installment. The search for Energon provides a simple yet effective plot, serving as a great entry point to understand Cobra Commanders character. The technical aspects of the writing are commendable, and the art, though not groundbreaking, complements the narrative. Its a solid addition to the Cobra Commander saga, offering a blend of action, character exploration, and intriguing story elements. Read Full Review

    The next phase of Cobra Commanders beginnings takes readers into an explosive confrontation with some familiar faces. Williamson directs traffic through the horror and action, giving readers a full dose of excitement. Milana and company hold nothing back as the brutality of the bad guys crafts quite a few bold images. Make sure not to let this chapter slip through your grasps on NCBD! Read Full Review

    AIPT - David Brooke Feb 20, 2024

    Cobra Commander #2 is a half step in the right direction. While it introduces more beloved G.I. Joe baddies, it also progresses the main plot too slowly while also missing all the cool world building and character work of the first issue. The visuals make up for the delay for more of the good stuff in issue #1, but only so much. Read Full Review

    The book immediately reminds us that despite the characters involved this is extremely not children-friendly, and while making Cobra Commander the butt of a few jokes is fun it feels like padding for the much bigger story of Megatron being imprisoned by COBRA. Read Full Review
