Vol 1: June 2003 – November 2003
The crossover of the decade is here! Featuring the two big players of the 80’s, this story chronicles what happens when an infant COBRA organization stumbles upon an alien spacecraft full of damaged robots – the TRANSFORMERS. With these new weapons under their control, they will conquer the entire planet, unless a newly formed Special Forces unit called G.I.JOE can stop them. When an unknown organization known as COBRA attacks important government sites, the United States military quickly responds to stop them. When Cobra’s HISS tanks, RATTLER jets, and arsenal of vehicles suddenly transform into GIANT ROBOTS, the good guys don’t stand a chance, and are forced to retreat. Only one of the Hiss-robots seems to reject control. One that looks oddly similar to Optimus Prime. On the front lines is an officer named Clayton Abernathy, who is called in to head a new elite force under the name HAWK. The team is dubbed G.I.JOE, and they have the entire power of the US Armed Forces at their disposal. Their purpose: To defend freedom from Cobra, and put a stop to their army of destructive machines…or find a way to use the machines against them.
