The time frame of AHO does not really apply to the end result of the event.

I definitely would not say "absolutely nothing has suggested that they are going to fight one another" Optimus is taking over human controlled earth by force, GI Joe represents a portion of human force on earth. For them not to have some form of conflict that results in a physical confrontation is illogical.

 

But if they make a Joe book that starts out with them fighting Transformers from issue 1 why would any GI Joe fans read the book? You're suggesting that the shared universe automatically makes GI Joe a companion series to The Transformers.

 

Joe issue #1? No they probably won't fight. The revolution event as a whole, I imagine avoiding a conflict will be hard. And by Joe I mean the franchise itself, it can be Cobra that fights them, point being worlds will collide violently and neither franchise will be better for it. Why? Because one is proportionately smaller than the other.

PS: very nice Galvatron, I like the shadowing  .

 

Why thank you!

I see what you're saying now. There should absolutely be a confrontation in the event series; it's SOP at this point for when comic characters meet one another. I just don't think you'll see too much of it once the event ends and they go their separate ways.

 

I am hopping it will end up like Infestation; it's canon, but can be easily ignored.

Same here, it would be nice if they had that much tact.
