	While [[Snake-Eyes\|Snake Eyes]] and [[Storm Shadow]] duel, [[Rom]] and [[Acroyear (Micronaut)\|Acroyear]] find themselves under attack by the forces of [[Cobra]]—including the mind-controlled [[Optimus Prime (G1)\|Optimus Prime]]! The laserfire of Cobra's human troops poses little danger to the Space Knight; his personal forcefield easily deflects their fire, then surrounds and entraps his attackers. Optimus is a considersably mightier opponent, but after he seizes Rom and blasts Acroyear, the Space Knight's forcefield comes to the rescue again, as Rom surrounds the [[Autobot]] leader with it and drags him out into space, beyond the reach of Cobra's control signal. While out in space, however, Rom spots a new threat approaching [[Earth]]: an asteroid full of [[Dire Wraith]]s!

'''Rom battles the Cobra-controlled Optimus Prime, and when the Dire Wraiths enter the fray, it's Destro's time to shine!'''

==Synopsis==
While [[Snake-Eyes|Snake Eyes]] and [[Storm Shadow]] duel, [[Rom]] and [[Acroyear (Micronaut)|Acroyear]] find themselves under attack by the forces of [[Cobra]]—including the mind-controlled [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]]! The laserfire of Cobra's human troops poses little danger to the Space Knight; his personal forcefield easily deflects their fire, then surrounds and entraps his attackers. Optimus is a considersably mightier opponent, but after he seizes Rom and blasts Acroyear, the Space Knight's forcefield comes to the rescue again, as Rom surrounds the [[Autobot]] leader with it and drags him out into space, beyond the reach of Cobra's control signal. While out in space, however, Rom spots a new threat approaching [[Earth]]: an asteroid full of [[Dire Wraith]]s!

Back down on Earth, the [[Micronaut]]s' [[Phenolo-Phi|Space Glider]] leads [[G.I. Joe (team)|G.I. Joe]] to the battlefield, so they can help their teammate Snake Eyes. The loss of Optimus Prime prompts [[Destro]] to emerge from Cobra headquarters to find out what has happened, whereupon [[Baron Karza]] reappears and uses the power of the [[Orbsah Gem]] to grow to colossal proportions. Bad luck for the Baron, then, that growing to such a height puts his noggin directly in the path of the approach Dire Wraith asteroid, which crashes into him and knocks him flat on his back. Acting quickly, Acroyear pries the Orbsah Gem free from the fallen Karza's armor, returning the Baron to his normal tiny size—but Karza still has plenty of fight left in him, and takes on Acroyear personally. Rom, meanwhile, is overcome by the Wraiths before he can use his Neutralizer on them, and the evil aliens start taking over the bodies of the Cobra troopers.

The fallen Orbash Gem rolls across the battlefield to stop at Destro's feet, and the arms dealer is quick to seize it and take possession of its power. Rom breaks free of the Wraiths' grip to try and convince Destro to surrender the gem, but Destro merely uses the gem's power to teleport Rom away. Karza also tries to retake the gem, but with a wave of his hand, Destro returns the Baron and the Micronauts to [[Microspace]]. It looks like Cobra victory is assured... until Optimus Prime returns, free of Cobra's control, and with a team of Autobots now backing him up!

Galaxies away, Rom materializes in the depths of space. Though he has been hurled unfathomable light years across the universe, the Space Knight is not out of the fight... for the Dire Wraiths still menace Earth, and as long as they do, he can ''never'' stop fighting!

==Notes==
*Originally solicited for release in April 2017, this issue arrives ''exceptionally'' late, in ''August''. It'd be logical to assume this had something to do with the reduction in length of the series from five issues to three... but at the same time, "THE END?" caption not withstanding, it doesn't feel like a tremendous amount of ''re-writing'' has happened here, since the story doesn't ''end'', but rather just... ''stops'', with Destro still in control of the Orbsah Gem, ready to face off against the Autobots, and the Dire Wraiths still running amok on Earth.
