Bludd very much played the part as Cobra's field commander. He led the assault in destroying Skystrikers at a Joe base and later spearheaded the theft of a spy satellite. He masqueraded as Dr. Vandermeer in an attempt to ambush the Joes and prevent the real doctor from being rescued. In the end, his force is overwhelmed and had to order a retreat.[2] He was next sent to gather the red crystal catalysts from the Arctic's Sea of Ice. Upon encountering the Joes, he has his contingent block his enemy's only way out of the cave.[3] He then ordered his harvester robot to gather the crystals. A radiation poisoned Snake-Eyes came out of the cave and rather than shoot him down, the Major leaves him to die in the snowy desert.[4] After succeeding in getting the crystals, Bludd earns his rest until the Joes finally find out the true location of the Cobra Temple. He was among the number of Cobras taken into custody at the end of the battle.[5]
