"Power Struggle", GI Joe and the Transformers#2 (February 1987), with credits to Michael Higgins (script), Herb Trimpe (pencils), Vince Colleta (inks), Nelson Yomtov (colors), Joe Rosen (letters), Bob Harris and Don Daley (editors)
We open with the Aerialbots arriving on the scene and finding Bumblebee in pieces. They respond by forming Superion and threating to return the favor. The battle is underway when they get word that Prime has died (Transformers#24) thus they retreat.
Power Station Alpha is now under Decepticon control but Cobra opts to steal it. GB Blackrock witnesses this battle and his boat is sunk in order to act as a distraction for the escaping Cobra. Blackrock overhears the Cobra troops talking about giant robots and he realizes he might be able to help...
The kid Bombshell planted a cerebro-shell inside is about to undergo surgery to get it out of his brain.
The Decepticons and Cobra officially have a meeting but Dr. Mindbener starts to panic when he overhears two of the jets talking. They plan, not only to take the power station for themselves, their resulting actions will blow up the Earth!
Some slight continuity errors start to pop up but overall good. The stakes are now raised. How can our heroes handle this?
