Signore Alighieri wrote the poem The Divine Comedy about COBRA. The organization was angry, but the Commander wanted to hear the end of the poem. Alighieri outlined the future of COBRA in the poem, of how it would emerge from the inferno and leave their wicked ways behind, saving the world. The Commander expanded COBRA exponentially as a result. When Alighieri died, the Commander noted that the organization was still in the inferno, and would probably always be.
