G.I. Joe Volume 1: Worlds Without End
Description
WORLDS WITHOUT END, PART 1
A failed attempt by Cobra to have Zartan and his thugs steal the matter transmuter—a device that changes the molecular structure of anything it touches—results in a battle royal between them and GI Joe. The war doesn't end until one of Cobra's thugs accidentally sets off the transmuter, at which point Flint and his troop are knocked unconscious. When they awake, everything around them has changed: trees are gone, the sky's a weird shade of orange, and even the bugs seem peculiar. Flint takes his team back to GI Joe headquarters, which appears to have abandoned long ago. Once their old computer system is restarted, Flint finds out why: they've landed in an alternate time, a time during which Cobra has defeated GI Joe and taken control of Earth. Now Flint and his troop must figure out a way back or knock Cobra's army back to yesterday.
WORLDS WITHOUT END, PART 2
GI Joe is still trapped in another dimension and continuing their assault on Cobra. Meanwhile, Steeler and Grunt stumble on to a graveyard littered with bones bearing dog tags on which their own names are written. As they leave, a force of female warriors lead by double-agent Baroness come to their rescue. She plans to pit Destro against the Emperor, hoping the two will destroy each other and thereby releasing their grip on Earth long enough for underground resistance troops to retake Earth. As the portal back to their world closes, Clutch and Steeler must decide whether to stay in this alternate time and help battle Cobra or return with Flint, Lady Jay, Barbecue, and the others.
