Percy is a human in the G.I. Joe vs. the Transformers portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Talking to Percy? She's looking at the reader. Fourth-wall terrorism!

Percy is a Cobra Viper, the lowest entry-level position within the cobra ranks. He was recruited at a time when Cobra Commander was how-shall-we-say... hard up for personnel, and frankly it shows.

Percy isn't bad at his job per-se -- he can fire a gun, and he operates quite effectively within his comfort zone of killing, maiming, and making things 'splode. But outside of his comfort zone (say, transported to an alien planet or time traveling with the fate of the world on his shoulders), Percy crumbles. He starts to hyperventilate, suffers from panic attacks, and bangs his head against the wall to just make it all go away.

He's hilarious, unless he's a part of your team allegedly helping you save the world from a timestream holocaust.

Fiction

Devil's Due G.I. Joe vs. the Transformers continuity

G.I. Joe vs. the Transformers II

Percy was one of two Vipers that accompanied Cobra Commander's raid on the Teletran 3 computer on Cybertron. The other Viper got to fight dinosaurs with the Joes and have an awesome bonding experience.

Percy had a nervous breakdown upon arriving in 1937, and as a result the rest of the team wouldn't let him do anything for the rest of the mission, not even drive the truck. And the Baroness made fun of him the whole time.

The temporary G.I. Joe/Cobra truce (extending 1 hour after their return to Earth) theoretically allowed Percy time to escape capture, but some of the Cobras appear to have been taken into custody anyway. Percy's final fate is unknown.
