Cross-Country

Cross-Country is a G.I. Joe team member who serves as a driver, operating the HAVOC (Heavy Articulated Vehicle Ordnance Carrier), a powerful ground combat vehicle used by the Joes against Cobra forces.

Cross-Country rolled onto the scene in 1986, debuting in the pages of Larry Hama and Rod Whigham's G.I. Joe, A Real American Hero #51 — right in the thick of one of Marvel's most beloved action franchises of the Copper Age. Over nearly four decades of publication, this character has kept distinguished company, sharing pages with heavy hitters like Hawk, Flint, and Dashiell R. Faireborn. While the appearance count is modest, a continuous presence stretching from 1986 all the way to 2025 speaks to genuine staying power in a universe that fans never stopped loving — and for completists and G.I. Joe devotees, tracking down every Cross-Country appearance across the main series and the Classic G.I. Joe trades is a rewarding corner of the collection.
