** Serpentor's origins themselves are an example. When Buzz Dixon reluctantly complied to introducing Serpentor into the cartoon, he took issue with the fact that establishing Serpentor as the true leader of Cobra would contradict the fact that all the previous episodes indicated that no one was superior to Cobra Commander. He offered two explanations to make it easier to introduce Serpentor, one proposal being that members of Cobra dissatisfied with Cobra Commander would literally create a new leader, and the other suggestion being that Cobra was really a front for a secretive organization that only Cobra Commander knew about, and which would send Serpentor to replace the Commander. Of course, Hasbro liked both ideas, [[TakeAThirdOption so they asked Dixon to combine both]].
