Fiction

Dreamwave Comics continuity

Area 51 is a concealed base in the Nevada desert accessed via a concealed elevator. Unlike the real world, there is no surface facility. It is staffed by teams of engineers and scientists capable of analyzing, repairing and reverse-engineering alien technology. It is a 'clean' facility, requiring biological decontamination to enter the primary areas, a guard against unwanted alien organisms.

Area 51 was built shortly after the Transformers arrival on Earth to serve as secret headquarters of Nathaniel Faireborn's newly-founded Earth Defense Command. The end result of the E.D.C's reverse-engineering was the short-lived Project: Centurion.

Scourge was taken to EDC Headquarters after his capture, as was Devastator and the remains of Superion.

Area 51 served as the production facility when Project: Centurion was restarted in 2004.

Devil's Due G.I. Joe vs. the Transformers
