Roadblock figured into the comic books as well on several occasions. Being the only Joe who could single-handedly tote a heavy machine gun made him an excellent asset on a number of missions. Early in the Marvel Comics run, the team had Cobra Commander tracked to Switzerland and set up a covert op to bring him in. Roadblock was instrumental in the mission, stopping the COBRA agents from escaping and seizing the evil leader. How did he do it? By standing in front of his car and shooting the crap out of it, of course.
