The Earth Corps are a geological sciences research team funded by the United States government...until the Inhumanoids emerged to ravage the surface world! Following that, they became a team of science-heroes out to protect America and the world from the monstrous menace.
G.I. Joe pilot Ace would become one of their number, under the new alias Sabre Jet.
Fiction
[edit]Animated cartoon
[edit]In the year 2021, Brandon "Big Boss" Babel freed five Inhumanoids...but the Earth Corps was indisposed battling the Lunartix Empire! Luckily, Ninja Gladiators are here to save us! At least, that was the story of the classic video game Ninja Gladiator, released by Flippy-Floppy Industries in 1987.
Presumably, there was a real Earth Corps in the 1980s who repulsed the actual Inhumanoid assault, under orders from President Edward Augutter: why else would the game go out of its way to say they weren't there another time? The AllSpark Almanac II
Notes
[edit]- The Earth Corps were the heroes of Hasbro toyline and Sunbow show Inhumanoids. Augutter was a member of the Corps, and in the final episode he did run for president (but didn't take the job). Presumably he was an Earth Corps member in Animated too.
- Via the clear presence of Ace as a character, references in Jem and the Holograms, and the presence of Hector Ramirez, Inhumanoids was casually placed within a wider "Hasbro/Sunbow-verse". This wasn't explicitly or canonically linked to Transformers until The AllSpark Almanac II came along and, in an Easter egg, explicitly stated all Hasbro-related 80s cartoons were in canon with each other. This is what fans do when they get the chance, and you love it (unless you're trying to reconcile all of it for the wiki).
- The Shattered Glass story "Eye in the Sky" had a character refer to a past attack by the Inhumanoids. Whether there's a Shattered Glass Earth Corps is unknown.
