| “ | Appearance doesn't matter if you have power. | ” |
Gristle, Headhunter field commander, is the epitome of grime and grit. A former crime boss with a notorious disregard for personal hygiene, he embodies the phrase "appearance doesn't matter if you have power." His rise through the criminal ranks, from Headhunter trainee to enforcer for major crime lords, speaks to his ruthlessness and ambition. Even within the ranks of Cobra, his grunginess was legendary. With his bloodshot eyes, often shielded by sunglasses, and his signature all-leather suit, Gristle is a figure both recognizable and reviled. His recent return to the Headhunters under Headman signifies a renewed commitment to chaos and destruction.
History[]
Canonical/Pre-MUX/Theme History:[]
Gristle was an agent of Headman until his boss ran afoul of Cobra. Seeing where the wind was blowing, Gristle immediately jumped ship, taking many of his underworld contacts with him.
MUX History:[]
| “ | Don't waste your time -- you'll never get yours hands on me! | ” |
Gristle sometimes led the Alley-Vipers, and vacationed in Jamaica in between missions. He secretly maintained contact with Headman, and they helped each other out when it was mutually beneficial.
In 2018, Gristle was replaced by Barghest as Alley-Viper leader.
In 2022, Gristle was assigned to the Cobra Base Camp in Antarctica as a punishment detail for non-performance. Soon after, he went AWOL and signed up with the Headhunters.

In 2024, Altitude spotted Gristle in Mexico working with Headhunters.

Field Commander Gristle
| “ | First step is to keep Cobra alive to do their good work. | ” |
Gristle may be well-coiffed and movie-star handsome, but don't let his good looks fool you - he got his nickname from being tough-as-nails in battle. While he takes Cobra's peaceful mission seriously, he's more concerned on a day-to-day basis with keeping his troops alive - he doesn't feel like G.I. Joe is going to be defeated by passive resistance and putting daisies in gun barrels. A master of both tactics and hand-to-hand combat, he's a rising force in Cobra's growing militia. While Father Cobra worries about the need for trained soldiers among his sedate commune, he appreciates what Gristle brings to the table and recognizes his skills are needed.
