Firefly

This article is about the Cobra human. For the Autobot Aerialbot sometimes known as Firefly, see Fireflight (G1){{#switch:{{#sub:Fireflight (G1)|-1}} != .= ?= .

Firefly is a Cobra-aligned human from the G.I. Joe portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
He calls his gun Vera.

The true identity of Firefly is shrouded in mystery. Not even Cobra Commander, the mercenary's most common employer, knows his real name or true appearance. Only one thing is certain with Firefly: he's very good at blowing things up.

G.I. Joe vs. the Transformers

[edit]
Burn the land and boil the sea.

Along with Zartan, Firefly was hired by Destro to aid in Cobra's attack on the SPS Research Facility. The two traveled there on Flight Pods, before using Cybertronian cloaking technology to turn invisible and effortlessly infiltrate the facility. While Zartan stole a piece of technology, Firefly planted explosive charges that would distract G.I. Joe from following them as they escaped. Once out, he detonated the explosives, destroying the facility and injuring Quick Kick and Mutt. G.I. Joe vs. the Transformers #3

After both G.I. Joe had been shut down and Cobra had fallen, Joe Colton and Scarlett recalled Firefly's membership in Cobra. Secret Raiders

Not too much long after, G.I. Joe was reborn as an international organization and Cobra was rebuilt with Baroness as it's new Commander. Sent to the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg along with Ice Queen and Stiletto of V.E.N.O.M., Firefly blew a hole in the wall of the museum and stole an antediluvian bowl Cobra Commander had sent him there for, informing her that she could pick two between quick, quiet, and cheap with regards to how he did his job when she complained about him not doing his job quietly. Climbing into the sidecar of Stiletto's Piranha, Firefly made his escape with the V.E.N.O.M. agents, the pursuing G.I. Joe team not accounting for the fact that the Piranha could convert into a submarine.

Heading towards the Museum of Modern Art in New York City next, Firefly made a much more quiet approach into the museum to steal a dagger but was stopped by Quick Kick right as he reached his target. Firefly, however, hadn't come alone, bringing hordes of Red Shadows along with him to the museum. G.I. Joe: First Strike Though the ninjas caught Kick off guard, they still didn't give him much trouble, but Firefly believed that the Joe taking care not to break any of the artifacts on display would lead to his downfall. Pulling out a pair of Escrima sticks, Quick Kick hurled one at Firefly's head, knocking him onto the ground and sending his Uzi out of his hand. Though Firefly was able to recover in time to retrieve his gun by the time Quick Kick got back over to him, the Joe martial artist was fast enough to dodge his bullets even at incredibly close range. Though Firefly was again disarmed, he suddenly got an assist from Storm Shadow, who knocked Quick Kick out using his own meteor hammer. Finally retrieving the knife, Firefly prepared to kill Kick with it but was stopped by his ninja teammate. M.A.S.K.: First Strike
