Trivia[]
- The Strange Cobra was seen early, on July 30th, 2019 in a video on Disney Junior's Youtube channel.
- Strange Cobra is the second known cobra in the franchise.
- Despite his importance in Scar's descent into villainy, the Strange Cobra's name is never revealed (as perhaps Scar didn't know his name). Considering that Scar was destroyed for good in the same episode he reveals how he got his namesake and since the show is over, it's likely that we will never learn the Strange Cobra's name.
