Like some others, I kind of combine groups. SHIELD has absorbed GI Joe, and MASK. It gives me leeway to have fire team support for Cap, Black Widow, and the like.

it's Cavalry, not Calvary. :)

I always get it backwards too, but once I associated it with Air Cav, it was easier to remember which one.

It's also 'who's', not 'whose'.

And I'm like Killy, Joe is the American Task Force for SHIELD, altho SHIELD was formed afterwards. Joe was created to fight COBRA's American activities, then SHIELD was formed once it was found that COBRA's a foreign group. The Joes *are* the cavalry.

Since I really don't have that many Avengers figures, Shield isn't a part of my verse. GIJoe is an American Task Force that only takes the best from each set of Special forces (Navy SEALS, SAS, etc). They specialize in missions that are low drag, behind the scenes stuff. Who killed Bin Laden? Joe. They only pinned it on Seal team 6 because GIJoe is completely off the record. Who found Saddam? They did, only after the military couldn't find him. They are off the record completely, but do the most work.

I also incorporate the Steel Brigade as a Government regulated team. They are the only military group that knows of GIJoe. They specialize in being support and helping the team whenever they need it. (setting up roadblocks in New York or taking a whole power grid down while the team completes their mission).

Anything that is in scale plays a part in some way. If the Joes get in trouble on a mission they call more Joes. If that doesn't work they call in regular special forces (PTE, BBI etc.) If facing a super, alien, bio-engineered, and/or mystical beings, they will call in the equivilant to counter it. So Matt Trakker, Hellboy, Tony Stark, and Hal Jordan are on speed dial.

G.I.Joe is the cavalry for the other toylines... Joes in itself don't need no other help. Yo Joe!

My different "story arcs" are pretty much parallel.
PTE figures are generic enough to be used against different characters though.

A long time ago, every figure co-existed. Cobra Commander even stole Super Power Superman's cape and was able to fly for a while until he was attacked by a bear.

Me too.

Predator team also could give a hand.

That must've given Cobra Commander considerable paws.

So that means COBRA Commander is secretly Stephen Colbert? That explains a whole hell of a lot, actually.

My Joeverse is self contained and does not involve Marvel or DC Superheroes, MASK, or any other Toy line for that matter. The one exception is a UN sanctioned Stormwatch team based on custom figures I'm putting together. They have no super powers, but use high tech weapons to sort of emulate the powers they had in the comic series.
