G.I. Joe vs. the Transformers
Many millennia ago,Unicroncame toEarthand threatened to devour it when he was stopped in his tracks by the citizens of Cobra-La, including a female human/snake hybrid similar to Golobulus. Cobra-La threatened Unicron with ametal-eating sporeand an agreement was struck whereby Cobra-La would go into seclusion and watch over the development of thehumanrace, occasionally helping it along. Then when the humans reached sufficient numbers and advanced technology, Cobra-La would send for Unicron who would return and take the humans as slaves to maintain his body, leaving the planet to be ruled by Cobra-La.
Golobulus was the ruler of Cobra-La in the present day. He ascribed his hatred of humanity to their damaging effects on the planet Earth and their use of mechanical technology; a hatred that was only enhanced by their alliance with theAutobots.In spite of this, Golobulus made use of severalDecepticonswho had crashed in the Himalayas, though he gave them organicPretendershells that concealed their robotic forms.
