The final changes to the comics line including the addition of two Intruder-themed sets and the resurrection of Secret of the Mummy's Tomb (still using the same comic from 1970). All other numbers stayed the same.

  1. Big Trapper (1976)
  2. Capture Copter (1976)
  3. Secret of the Mummy's Tomb

1.  Big Trapper (1976)
:

 Story begins with same three panels as Capture Copter explaining Intruder origin. Shift to a cave, where four Intruders plot "the destruction of all Earthlings!" The Adventure Team is put on alert - Eagle Eye G.I. Joe calls in the Big Trapper, specially built to capture Intruders. They set out to search the area. They are in a mountain pass when Intruders attack. The Intruders try to, but can't turn over the specially designed Big Trapper. One Joe uses the laser, but misses as the Intruders run off. They give chase and track them to their cave, where they use the laser to blast the mountain apart. The Intruders flee from the cave and are stunned by the laser. A gold Intruder is captured and hauled away to HQ. Highlight: The Intruders are pondering strategy in their cave around a chic 70's-design table. Lowlight: There is no map on the table - the Intruders are looking and pointing at nothing. Starring: Eagle Eye Land Commander in green outfit. Support: MOA in tan outfit; Blonde MOA in brown outfit; Land Adventurer in brown outfit.

2.  Capture Copter (1976):
 Deep in space, a galaxy explodes, hurtling debris towards Earth. A chunk lands, and out of the crater emerge the Intruders. Their mission - to take over the world! Eagle Eye G.I. Joe is alerted and takes off in the Capture Copter, a fantastic new copter brimming with anti-Intruder gear and powerful armor plating. Joe finds an Intruder and gives hot pursuit, but the brute hurls huge rocks at the chopper. While the Intruder is trying to pry a huge rock loose, Joe grabs him with the Capture Copter's Capture Claws. The Intruder shifts his weight, causing Joe to release him or risk crashing. Joe subdues the Intruder with the net and saves the day. Highlight: Chance to see great aerial assault vehicle in action. Lowlight: Intruder caught easily, proving he is stupider than he looks, which is really stupid. Starring: Eagle Eye Land Commander in tan shirt and pants; black Adventurer in green short/pants; blond MOA in green short/pants; Sea Adventurer in brown short/pants.
