- Agent Helix is a G.I. Joe-aligned human from the IDW portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Agent Helix is a member of G.I. Joe. Much of her personal information, including her real name, is classified, with only a select few knowing anything about her. What is known is that she is possessive of a unique ability known as "Total Battlefield Awareness", able to make remarkably quick calculations regarding any data set present on the battlefield. Helix is also an expert marksman, an Olympic-classed gymnast, and a master of multiple forms of martial arts.

Notes
- Helix was designed by Mayan Escalante for the video game tie-in to the 2009 film, G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, developed by Double Helix Games (hence her name). She soon received an action figure and was introduced into the IDW comic book series around the same time.
- She’s like the G.I. Joe equivalent of both Drift AND Windblade!
