Major Bludd never fought for honor, only for profit and glory. However any good Mercenary could see that you can't spend money in a biological nightmare post-apocalyptic wasteland. Already skeptical on Cobra-la itself, the good Major finally performed his first selfless act.
When the giant spore bio-missiles were set to fire Bludd destroyed a large launch site. This reduced the total payload by 25% leaving many humans unaffected altogether. Major Bludd wasn't so fortunate though as the burning spores passed over him. Now horribly mutated Major Bludd fights for a new reason: Revenge against Cobra-la!
The Eye Patch on the same side for both characters meant that it just had to be done!
