History
Heavy Duty is seen along with the rest of the Joes stopping the Baroness and her forces from stealing a case of Nanites from a team consisting of Duke, Ripcord and a Ranger team. Using a gatling gun he stopped several Cobra forces and was in a stand off with Duke who thought they were also trying to steal the case. He later trained Duke and Ripcord in usage of the Accelerator suits and was seen with Sergeant Stone watching Duke train against Snake-Eyes. He believed Duke would lose but was disappointed when Duke managed to hit Snake-Eyes. During the attack on The Pit he was seen wielding dual grenade launchers, which he used to destroy the Cobra's main escape vehicle and shoving a grenade in a Cobra Trooper's helmet. He later drove the Joe's to their target in a white van where he briefed them on their objectives and explained to Ripcord how expensive the suits were only to have him fall on it. At the end of the chase he was arrested by the French Police in connection with the attack along with the rest of the Joes, save for Duke who was captured and Snake-Eyes who escaped. He participated in the attack on Cobra's base by leading an amphibious attack force to deal with Cobra's own amphibious attack force and to destroy Cobra's base.
