	It was discovered that after the Autobots crash-landed on Earth, a rescue ship was sent after them which was buried somewhere in [[United Kingdom\|England]]. The [[Man of Iron (~~Autobot~~)\|Man of Iron]], one of its crew, had awakened a number of times in England's history and had become a local legend. Jazz, along with [[Trailbreaker (G1)\|Trailbreaker]], [[Mirage (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity\|Mirage]], and [[Bluestreak (G1)\|Bluestreak]], was dispatched to England under Optimus Prime's supervision. Jazz befriended (and kidnapped) a young boy, [[Sammy Harker]], whose dad worked at the castle where the Autobot rescue ship had been partially unearthed. After questioning the boy, it became apparent that the rescue ship had to be destroyed. At the climax of a battle with the Decepticons over the buried ship, Jazz fired his weaponry down into it, and it was pulverized. {{storylink\|Man of Iron (issue)\|Man of Iron}}		It was discovered that after the Autobots crash-landed on Earth, a rescue ship was sent after them which was buried somewhere in [[United Kingdom\|England]].

	It was discovered that after the Autobots crash-landed on Earth, a rescue ship was sent after them which was buried somewhere in [[United Kingdom\|England]]. The [[Man of Iron (~~Autobot~~)\|Man of Iron]], one of its crew, had awakened a number of times in England's history and had become a local legend. Jazz, along with [[Trailbreaker (G1)\|Trailbreaker]], [[Mirage (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity\|Mirage]], and [[Bluestreak (G1)\|Bluestreak]], was dispatched to England under Optimus Prime's supervision. Jazz befriended (and kidnapped) a young boy, [[Sammy Harker]], whose dad worked at the castle where the Autobot rescue ship had been partially unearthed. After questioning the boy, it became apparent that the rescue ship had to be destroyed. At the climax of a battle with the Decepticons over the buried ship, Jazz fired his weaponry down into it, and it was pulverized. {{storylink\|Man of Iron (issue)\|Man of Iron}}		It was discovered that after the Autobots crash-landed on Earth, a rescue ship was sent after them which was buried somewhere in [[United Kingdom\|England]].
