The Mickey Cobras are a gang based in Chicago and affiliated with People Nation. The gang is considered stable, and its colors are green, black, and red. Factions of the gang are being established throughout the Midwest.
On April 5, 2005, US Attorney Patrick J. Fitzgerald described The Mickey Cobras (few in numbers compared to other parties with same power) as one of several "super-gangs" that constitute a sizable portion.
Some of their rivals would be Gangster Disciples, Black Disciples and sometimes other People affiliates.
