G.I. Joe and the Transformers
G.I. JOE Marvel ComicsJanuary-April 1987 - 4 issuesIn 1987, Marvel's G.I. Joe / Transformers crossover was released as a four issue miniseries. The story centered around an advanced power station that both Cobra and the Decepticons want to get their hands on. The Joes are charged with protecting it, and eventually join forces with the Autobots after the two groups are at odds. The story suffers because of the attempt of the writer (who never wrote for either series) to fit each issue into the current storylines of the two regular series, making it unnecessarily convoluted. Because of this, much of the series is without Cobra Commander and Destro (presumed dead in the regular series), and coincidentally, Optimus Prime and Megatron were missing for part of the series, as well.
