Very much so Kobra goes solo against the JSA and gives them trouble Ra's troubles batman barely.

For giving the JSA trouble he sure got whooped by Mr Terrific in h2h.

Btw the new Kobra destroyed Terrific.

Bah this is an overall fight,and he did best Terrific using gas.His resources are IMO much greater.

Can't say I care about who wins, I just can't see him posing any real threat to the JSA in direct combat unless he got a really great upgrade from the times I read the character in Waid's Flash and the early JSA issues of the Goyer/Johns run.
 
Nah, he didn't best him. He got beat up, threw gas at him and run away.

The OP seems to acknowledge the old Kobra.

Ras Al Ghul should win.

Ras Al Ghul should win.

@Morpheus_: You should read the JSA vs Kobra mini and his faces of Evil oneshot.The guy was ridiculously impressive.

@entropy_aegis: I don't believe he was unskilled, since Terrific demonstrated rather impressive skills himself during the fight, and Kobra made him work for it before going down, I was just looking for more feats/info on how he became so powerful. But since it's another version of the character entirely, it's possible.

I'm reading JSA from the 1999 volume and forth, so I will get to it in good time. JSA vs Kobra is on my list.

Based on? 

Kobra has given Batman a decent fight, but it was a long time ago so I don't know if it still means anything.

Ra's is much more intelligent, is an better swordsmen and martial arts then Kobra. 
 
Ra's has also proven to be a threat to the JLA in Tower of Babel and will never truly die sense Resurrection.

@Enerjak: After all the Crisis events that took place after this fight and now with the relaunch coming. I bet this fight is non-con.

@NightFang: Batman's post crisis history is one of the few that won't be getting rebooted post Flashpoint.  Also I'm not entirely sure but I don't think that Kobra received a new origin after the first Crisis so that fight would still fit into his history.  I'm not even sure if Kobra is in the new DC because the JSA isn't.

The JSA are on Earth-2,however Mister Terrific (JSA member) in on DCNU,Kobra is a general DCU villian.His more recent stories portray him as a JSA villian but overall that's not the case.

I've only read about him in the JSA books and that one Outsiders issue I bought in a bargain bin.  I'm trying to read all of his appearances because he's such a cool villain.  Cooler then Ra's IMO [although Ra's is badass too]

However the orignal Kobra was waaaaaaaay too arrogant,a mistake which the recent one is trying to avoid.He once had Batman's body and fought against his own body(inhabited by Supes) and got his ass kicked completly.I'm not even sure who won or who lost.

When did Kobra fight JSA single-handedly? Also, Jason Burr was one of the best in terms of prep masters.

Indeed,and unlike other prep masters he did'nt pull out random plot devices out of his a$$ nor did he make everyone look like they were chumps or become the second coming of God himself.

That's how you write prep masters.

Kobra ftw.

H2H I think Kobra but organization against organization I think Ra's

They really need to flesh out Kobra in the DCnU! He could be a massive villain in scope.
