| The '''Dreadnoks''' are a mercenary biker gang often employed by Cobra. They love grape soda, chocolate covered donuts, and destroying things - not necessarily in that order, but all at once if possible. They'd really like that. They are led by [[Zartan]], and their members include the disgruntled intellectual '''Buzzer''', the vicious Tasmanian '''Ripper''', the pyromaniac '''Torch''', and Zartan's sibling [[Zarana]].

| The Dreadnoks Torch, Ripper, and Buzzer were ordered to monitor the unveiling of the powerful energy-creating device [[Power Station Alpha]], but since they were bored, they blew their cover and attacked it on their motorcycles. After being forced to retreat when their "plan" was ruined by [[G.I. Joe]], they failed to take potshots at [[Bumblebee (G1)|a little yellow car]] and then were chewed out by Zarana. {{storylink|Blood on the Tracks}}

| Torch, Ripper, and Buzzer were on [[Cobra Island]] later when the [[Decepticon]]/[[Cobra]] alliance was formed. Torch remarked that [[Shockwave (G1)|Shockwave]] looked like "an overgrown Tinker Toy." Buzzer told him to shut up, in case the Decepticon leader overheard. {{storylink|Ashes, Ashes...}}

| After the treachery of the Decepticons was revealed, Cobra found itself allied with both G.I. Joe and the Autobots against them. After having retreated to the Autobots' headquarters on Earth, the [[Ark (G1)|Ark]], the ground trembled underneath the feet underneath them, due to the effects of the renegade Power Station Alpha. Torch feared the giant robots surrounding them would topple over, sealing their doom. {{storylink|...All Fall Down!}}

| Despite defeating [[Cobra]] and the [[Decepticon]]s two years ago, [[G.I. Joe]] was still hunting down rogue Cobra members who had stolen away with Transformers technology. [[Stalker]], [[Scarlett]], and [[Beachhead]] invaded a [[Boston]] warehouse, finding Buzzer, Ripper, and Torch. These Dreadnoks had replaced their arms with prosthetic cyborg weapon-limbs. G.I. Joe defeated them (with the help of Transformers technology of their own) and the Dreadnoks were taken into custody. {{storylink|G.I. Joe vs. the Transformers II, part 1}}

| After an explosive accident with [[Teletran 3]] that flung dozens of [[Transformer]]s into the past and future of [[Earth]], [[Barbecue]], [[Spirit]], [[Tomax]] and [[Xamot]], and [[Dr. Mindbender]] traveled into the future to retrieve [[Ratchet (G1)|Ratchet]]. In this timeline, a severely disfigured [[Duke]] led a resistance movement (consisting of further cyborg-ized Dreadnoks riding [[Junkion]]s) against the ruling [[Decepticon]]s. {{storylink|G.I.
