Adventure Team
| This article is about the human military task force. For the Mini-Con team, see Adventure Mini-Con Team. |
- The Adventure Team is a human organization from the Generation 1 continuity family.
Adventure Team was a special mission force for the United States military. Created in 1963 by John F. Kennedy and led by Joseph Colton, Adventure Team assembled mission specialists to tackle threats anywhere from the four corners of the Earth... and beyond.
Adventure Team ceased operating in the late 1970s, but it served as the model for the later Counter-terrorist Group Delta which was named G.I. Joe in honor of Joe Colton.
Members include:
- Joe Colton (team leader)
- Mike Power, the Atomic Man
- Miles Manheim
- Bulletman
- "Adventurer" (Tom Stone)
Fiction
G.I. Joe vs. the Transformers
An Adventure Team mission managed to piss off General Mihai and they fled across the Himalayas to escape. Unfortunately, en route they (and their pursuers) ran afoul of Cobra-La and their Decepticon allies. Mike Power was killed by Bludgeon and Colton taken prisoner. G.I. Joe vs. the Transformers: Black Horizon
IDW Generation 1 continuity
The Adventure Team met Britain's own hero, Action Man! They were later replaced with G.I. Joe. Joe Colton and Miles Manheim would reminisce about their days in the Adventure Team days during a meeting. Road to Revolution, Part 1
Notes
- Miles Mayhem nee Manheim was never an Adventure Team member in the toyline (nor in the Joe line). He was added to the crew by IDW in order to tie the M.A.S.K. comic to G.I. Joe and made into the toyline's Sea Adventurer figure.
