Blackrock's chemical plant appeared exclusively in the UK portion of the Marvel Comics continuity.

Just before Christmas 1986, Jazz and Jetfire were taking delivery of a shipment of fuel at the plant when it was attacked by Thrust and Bombshell, starting a fire that threatened to set off a chain reaction amongst the chemicals. Horrified at the prospect of a toxic cloud being unleashed over Portland, Blackrock urged Jetfire to help and after neatly defeating both Decepticons the aerial Autobot dumped a vat of water onto the fire, averting catastrophe.

The next day, Buster Witwicky's studies of the American War of Independence would be interrupted by a TV news report about the incident at the chemical plant, and then again by Jetfire showing up in person to tell him about it. The Gift
