[edit]G.I. Joe, and the Earth at large, found themselves caught up in a war against the planet Cybertron. Tunnel Rat was among the many operatives sent to the metallic planet to take the offensive against their opponents. After an attack against the Decepticon city of Trypticon ended with the Joes on the run, they regrouped at Green Zone 0-8-6, their temporary camp behind enemy lines. There, Tunnel Rat patrolled the base's perimeter into the dark of night. When Wheeljack was ensnared after breaching the camp, Tunnel Rat helped secure the Joes' first P.O.W. in the inter-planetary war. Targetmasters The Joes came to find that the Autobots were a sympathetic lot, and that they shared a common enemy: the Decepticons. The Joes lodged themselves within the Autobots' mobile city, Metroplex. It soon came under attack from both Trypticon and the rogue Autobot, Fortress Maximus. Tunnel Rat and a number of other Joes set out to infiltrate Maximus with several Autobots backing them up.
