The following don't exist in my Joeverse;

Lunartix Empire

GI Joe/Government Teams:
Anti-Venom Task Force – FBI/Homeland Security Group investigating domestic terrorist activities by Cobra or known Cobra agents
Battleforce 2000 – Originally a testbed team using experimental equipment. After their destruction in Benzheen City, the Battleforce 2000 is deactivated, the remaining equipment is mothballed and their combat related existence is recorded only on the roster of the fallen at GI Joe HQ. DARPA took over the research aspect and field testing.
Drug Elimination Force – Special DEA group assigned to battle more radical elements of the drug trade in US and US interests worldwide.
Sky Patrol – Does not exist. United States Air Force Joint Forces Command fills this role.
Steel Brigade – A special Pentagon security team sent to handle operations too “Hot” for regular or special forces.
Cobra Teams:
Dreadnoks – Classic “Bad Boy” Aussie biker gang. Zartan is the financial backer who uses them as hired muscle when needed.
Plague Troopers – Origins unknown, Mystery team
Python Patrol – Major Bludd’s personal combat group. No aviation units exist.
Strike Team - Urban Division – Alley Vipers? Uh…well NO! Regular Cobra operatives dressed either as non-descript terrorists or in Cobra Blue.
Other:
Iron Grenadiers - Destro’s personal security
Oktober Guard - Russian Special Mission force
