Trapped in the facility housing the Ice Man, Joe Danco and a skeleton crew of Sector Seven agents needed to figure out who sabotaged the building's furnace in order to escape certain death, either via the alien behemoth's hand, or Sector Seven's contingency plan to freeze the whole area over. Though already drinking heavily as the situation unfolded, he maintained a clear head. Upon inspecting the sabotaged furnace, he informed the rest of the crew that the machine had been sabotaged, giving them about four hours before the alien would thaw out of the ice. The group were able to quickly formulate a plan to halt the thawing, hinging on Fontaine linking a duct to pump in cold air from outside. Unknown to the rest of the crew, Danco was the one who had sabotaged the furnace, planning to escape in the confusion with a pocket-full of American secrets for the Kremlin! Danco murdered Fontaine and further sabotaged the furnace to accelerate the thawing. When Bill Simmons showed the rest of the group an escape route out of the facility, via a network of underground tunnels, Danco showed his true colors, expositing that he resented Simmons and his family for taking all of the glory in the foundation of Sector Seven. Before he could escape, the Ice Man burst into the room. Simmons wrestled Danco as the rest of the group escaped, leading to both their (presumed) demise when a liquid nitrogen bomb was dropped on the facility. Frozen

Joe Danco survived, and managed to make his way back to the Soviet Union by 1957, with information about the Ice Man in hand. He delivered the information to his superiors, who had their own Cybertronian under ice, the Decepticon Shockwave. Rising Storm #2

Thanks to information Joe Danco stole, the soviets were able to build the Luna Six probe to explore the Moon’s surface. He also tried to convey the importance of the Cube to his superiors, but they remained uninterested, as he could not tell them what the cube did.

Bill Simmons escaped numerous times from Danco's custody, only to be subsequently recaptured. The two men had numerous battles, the latest ending with Simmons being held in Soviet Research Station Oktober, with Danco overlooking his torture. To mentally torment his captive (and "remind him of his homeland”) Joe Danco played the same episode of "Felix the Cat" every day in his captive’s cell for over three years. He would then try to pry information about Sector Seven from Simmons, but Simmons would not yield. His latest tactic was to present a photograph of Simmons’s son, and threatening to kill both the boy and Simmons’s wife if he did not forfeit what information he knew about the Cube. Simmons assaulted Danco through his cell bars in response. The tussle was interrupted by Alisa Morozov entering the room, demanding to know what Danco had learned about the Cube. Though at first excited at the prospect that someone had taken his reports about the alien artifact seriously, Danco quickly realized that something was amiss. Alisa Morozov, revealing herself to be an extra-terrestrial spy, plunged a tentacle into his mouth and began to read Danco’s mind.

Realizing that he’d rather have humans running the show than alien machines, Danco tossed his gun to Simmons when the later asked for it, despite their enmity. Simmons then killed Danco to stop the secrets in his mind from being stolen. Convergence chapter 2
