You call this a report?!

This comic issue article is a stub and is missing information. You can help Joepedia by expanding it.


“ Delve inside Cobra's brutal, punishing training methods as we learn what it takes to become a Range Viper under the supervision of the apex predator known as Skull Buster. If you fail your final exam, there are no make-ups... only a shallow grave. And if you pass... well, that just might be worse. ”

—The description as originally solicited by IDW Publishing.
