When Roadhandler became an overnight wrestling sensation on Earth, [[Scorponok (G1)|Scorponok]] called in help to end the Autobot's growing public adulation, and an unknown Decepticon sent the Air Strike Patrol. Whisper got to threaten physical harm against small children to force Roadhandler to take a dive against [[Storm Cloud (G1)|Storm Cloud]]. {{storylink|The Interplanetary Wrestling Championship!}}

Unknown to Scorponok, the patrol's secret employer was [[Megatron (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Megatron]], who then sent the team on a mission to [[MacDill Air Force Base]] to capture the [[B-204]] refueling plane. When the [[Autobot]]s inevitably arrived, the team contacted Scorponok to tell him that they were under attack. {{storylink|Back from the Dead}} After a brief confrontation with [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Optimus Prime]] and the arrival of Scorponok's Decepticons, the Air Strike Patrol fled, their mission completed. {{storylink|The Resurrection Gambit!}}

''They appear to have gone AWOL from the Decepticons after this, as Whisper was next seen as a private assassin with an open-ended contract to kill key Autobots. This in turn made Whisper a target of the Autobot [[Rescue Patrol (G1)|Rescue Patrol]], who damaged his wings and chased him into an Earthen forest. His patrolmates came to his aid, and the Rescue Patrol were called back by Optimus to stop the forest being destroyed. {{storylink|The Greatest Gift of All!}}''

Whisper led his team across the southern United States, finally attacking an oil refinery. This was the same oil refinery where [[Dynamo|Hector Dialonzo]], a human with extraordinary powers, was working, and he single-handedly destroyed the Air Strike Patrol. Whisper was the last to fall, quickly realising Hector's power and deciding to threaten workers to get him to back off. This just pissed Hector off and made him attack anyway! {{storylink|The Human Factor!}}

In an alternate timeline, the Air Strike Patrol took [[Megatron (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Megatron]]'s side in a Decepticon Civil War against factions led by Scorponok and [[Shockwave (G1)|Shockwave]]. They had a chance to kill a beaten Scorponok in 1991 but were stopped by the Autobots, as their battle was destroying a human city. {{storylink|Aspects of Evil!}}
