	''In [[1994]], in [[Brasnya]]'s [[Project Ice Man\|Project: Ice Man]] facility, after years of experimentation and augmentation at the hands of [[Merklynn\|Garrison Kreiger]], Mike Power, the [[Atomic Man]] is at last ready to make contact with the [[Talisman (G1)\|Talisman]] once more. As Kreiger and [[Centurion (IDW)\|Centurion]] watch, Power reaches out to touch the obelisk, triggering a surge of energy and the sudden unexpected appearance of Centurion's starship ''[[Axalon (BW)\|Axalon]]'', which vanished fifty years prior right before Kreiger's eyes! From the ''Axalon'', a confused [[Sgt.

Spotting Mike Power's body, [[Stalker (G.I. Joe)\|Stalker]] can detect no signs of life and the group is left to believe Power has died.''

	''Savage adapts quickly to life in the 1990s, teaming up with the contemporary ~~{{i\|~~Action Man ~~(1990s)\|Action Man}}~~ and his "[[Team Extreme]]" to fight the villains of the era. His adventures continue into the early 21st century until, one day, he detects a distress signal emanating from the vicinity of [[Mount St. Helens]], near [[Oregon]]. Speeding to the scene, he discovers [[G.I. Joe (team)\|G.I. Joe]]—the newly-founded special mission force that has replaced Colton's Adventure Team—in battle with the [[Decepticon]] [[Bugly (G1)\|Bugly]]. Savage pitches in, but the fight is won when Centurion appears and incapacitates the rogue Cybertronian. Savage and the Joes follow Centurion back to his base of operations, a Cybertronian facility within Mount St. Helens originally assembled by the Decepticons under [[Bludgeon (G1)\|Bludgeon]]'s command when they briefly visited early in the 1980s, which has since been discovered and refurbished by [[Joshua Red]] and his [[Skywatch]] organization, and is now being run by Kreiger and Colton. Savage is quickly ushered through into the next room; the other Joes apparently lack the clearance for what he is about to be told, which neither Stalker nor [[Hawk (G.I.

	''Kreiger and Colton reveal to Savage that they have moved the Talisman into the facility to further experiment on it using [[Ore-13]], and that Bugly is one of a handful of incapacitated Transformers Skywatch found within the mountain.

Taking things in stride, Savage accompanies the team to [[G.B.

While the group wait for G.I.

Unfortunately, just as the Joes are drawing near, Centurion reveals that his change of heart is anything but, as he taps into the building's defense systems and has them open fire on the Joes' aircraft. Worse still, the building has already been infiltrated by [[Doctor X]] and [[Tempest (G.I.

Second later, [[Joe Colton\|Baron Ironblood]] himself teleports into the building via the [[M.A.S.S. Device]], flanked by the [[Red Shadows]], [[Major Bludd]], and the [[Oktober Guard]], and utter pandemonium breaks out. The Joes abandon their aircraft and are able to get inside the building just before a forcefield seals it off, but they are not prepared for what is about to happen. Savage sees right through Ironblood—making a beeline for the villain, he pounces on him, rips his helmet off, and reveals that underneath, the Baron is really...

	...to arrive a further decade in the future, back in the Project: Iceman facility, in front of the very confused Revolutionaries, who have just managed to successfully capture Kreiger for his crimes. Taking things in stride, Savage accompanies the team to [[G.B. Blackrock\|Garrison Blackrock]]'s [[Onyx]] facility in [[Buenos Aires]], where the Talisman is being stored and studied in continued hopes of finding a cure for those it mutated into [[Dire Wraith]]s. While the group wait for G.I.

Unfortunately, just as the Joes are drawing near, Centurion reveals that his change of heart is anything but, as he taps into the building's defense systems and has them open fire on the Joes' aircraft. Worse still, the building has already been infiltrated by [[Doctor X]] and [[Tempest (~~Cobra~~)\|Storm Shadow]], the latter having holographically disguised herself as Blackrock's assistant [[Camila]]—a disguise she now drops as she stabs Blackrock through the chest. Second later, [[Joe Colton\|Baron Ironblood]] himself teleports into the building via the [[M.A.S.S. Device]], flanked by the [[Red Shadows]], [[Major Bludd]], and the [[Oktober Guard]], and utter pandemonium breaks out. The Joes abandon their aircraft and are able to get inside the building just before a forcefield seals it off, but they are not prepared for what is about to happen. Savage sees right through Ironblood—making a beeline for the villain, he pounces on him, rips his helmet off, and reveals that underneath, the Baron is really...
