Article Summary

  • The Kobra Cult's fate is unveiled in Batman And Robin #13, with origins tied to creators Steve Sherman and Jack Kirby.
  • Kobra is seen harnessing Dinosaur Island's secrets to perfect the Venom serum, countered by Batman, Robin, and Bane.

Tomorrow's Batman And Robin #13 looks at the fate of the Kobra Cult, the DC Comics religious terrorist group created by Steve Sherman and Jack Kirby with the goal of bringing about the Kali Yuga – the Age of Chaos, in which the imperfect world will be swept away by a divinely-inspired, better version, led by a twin chosen by destiny, Jeffrey Burr. Opposed by the likes of Air Wave, the Justice Society Of America, Checkmate and Black Adam, they have used technology from other groups, combined in new ways to gain dominance.

Kobra Cult JSA

In recent issues of Batman And Robin we have seen Kobra using Dinosaur Island to try and find a way to make the Venom serum a permanent one, as timeless as these dinosaurs seemed to be.

Kobra Cult JSA

With Bane now fighting Kobra Cult as well as Batman and Robin. Naturally in tomorrow's Batman And Robin #13, this all gets wrapped up. But it seems that the Kobra Cult will be seen again sooner rather than later.
