Mayor J. Michael Houston presented the key Wednesday to a man dressed as the head of the fictional terrorist organization, which is headquartered in a fictional town bearing the name Springfield.
"Springfielders near and far, I accept your Mayor's generous gift. And let it be known that I too bring a gift for every man, woman and child of this city that is so near and dear to my heart; an invitation to join with me. Join Cobra!" Cobra Commander said in a news release issued by G.I. JoeCon, the upcoming convention to celebrate the toys, movies, animated series and other G.I. Joe media.
The April 9-12 convention features appearances from cartoon voice actors, "a G.I. Joe parachute drop" and "the largest G.I. Joe centric showroom in the world."
