TOE STORY
Cobra is a renegade space pirate of the first degree.
Jetting through the galaxy with his faithful companion
Armaroid Lady, he does nothing but get into
trouble...big trouble. One time he even had his left arm
ripped right off! Not to worry, because now he totes
around the mega-powerful Psycho-gun instead of a left
arm.
Then one day Cobra just up and disappeared! With their
nemesis out of the picture, the evil Pirate Guild once
more started to terrorize the innocent citizens of the
universe. And to make matters worse, the Galaxy Patrol
has put an astronomical reward on Cobra's head.
Cobra may be down but he ain't out. Just when people
are about to give up hope he returns... a new man with
a new face and new memory.
But the Pirate Guild knows Cobra isn't down for the
count. They're waiting for him, and so is a beautiful
tattooed woman named Jane.
The tattoo holds an offer that Cobra can't refuse...
