I liked Firefly because he was Cobra's Snake-eyes in many ways. He and Storm Shadow were the two "Cobras" (not really in Cobra) that all wanted.

Firefly was my Ninja Trooper! Most of my Joe's were used so I never had file cards on most of them. So I would make up my own back stories. Basically he was a trooper that had been trained by Storm Shadow.

G.I. Joe has the best back stories for almost every character. They each have their own series. Incredible.

Rest in peace Ray. His Firefly was one of the things I actually liked in Retaliation.

You are nailing it with these history of episodes. You covered my favorite Joe, Beachhead, last week and now I get my favorite Cobra agent, Firefly reviewed! Hellz yeah! Solid work JLS!

Outlawstar79 He was the only high point of the film. Much like his role in Warzone, Ray Stevenson was perfect as Firefly.

My friend was going through his Transformers toys that was in a box and found Firefly as the only figure in his box. He gave it to me and I still have him. It's a cool figure.

I really loved the design in retaliation, he was vicious, sadistic and sarcastic and how cool the fireflies drones were, what's next, Gung-ho?

Firefly is a sneaky bastard, but I can’t help but like him. Great video.

These bring me back! Watching these are so awesome. Great job and please keep them coming. After watching these, I purchased the 87 GI Joe movie.

I gotta tell ya: the way they introduced his 1991 toy outfit to the comics along with the Faceless Master stuff was pretty kickarse.

Patiently waiting for Lowlight and Airtight 😎🇨🇦

If Firefly is not a ninja like Storm Shadow because Larry Hama said so, then what is he, just a merc with spec-ops and ninja training? His design is a bit confusing. I'm only familiar with his 80s cartoon presentation. I always saw him as a demolitions expert. With a name like Firefly I simply expected him to blow things up and set things on fire. I don't remember him ever showing off any martial arts skills in the show. Good videos! Thanks.

I love how you narrate these! You voice reflects your passion for your content! It is greatly appreciated!

At least Firefly was real about is motives

Fantastic! Firefly is one of my favorite COBRA Characters! So glad you heard us (your followers) out. 👍

In, what I thought was a very funny moment, the issue where Firefly, Destro and Fred attack Snake-Eyes cabin Airborne and Spirit Iron-Knife, who are trying, unsuccessfully, to keep a stealthy eye on Snake-Eyes, charge up the mountain to help. Both a Native American. When charging Airborne tells to Snake-Eyes not to worry because "the calvary is coming." Spirit Iron-Knife didn't like that. Airborne then said "What am I supposed to say, the Indians are coming."

Another great video! I crave these vids and love when you put out a new one! I humbly request a shockwave history and origins vid!

As someone who grew up through the early 2000s and mostly watched cartoons its so fascinating to hear ge history and lore explained Im sure the diehards will find the show awful but id love to hear your take on gi joe sigma 6 if you haven’t already done a video

One of the coolest looking GI Joe figures.

Just got the Cobra island exclusive today so I had to watch this video. Thank you for an awesome and thorough profile!

One of the coolest toys and best characters. Absolutely love this series of videos. Thank you for doing all this.

Please do Spirit & Freedom next! Really want to know his history!

So glad I stumbled upon your channel my brother!

Back in the 80's Transformers and G.I. Joe used to come on back to back from 4 o'clock to 5 weekday afternoons on WTXF TV 29 In Philadelphia. Very underrated character in the cartoon, but he was always one of my favorites.

Very interesting video its always fun to learn new facts about these characters. Keep up the great work.

We are huge fans. Thank you for making these!!

He was one of my favorite figures as a kid.

Firefly potentially could be a group.

Stevenson was also Black Beard in Black Sails for those like me that love that show

Firefly wad my 1st gi joe.

He has a cool look. Total badass

I been thinking about getting a Firefly tattoo.

Best GI Joe ever

Yeah im really enjoying these too. Please keep em coming!

Sweet video! But if you bring up Ray Stevenson, you have to mention him as Tituss Pulo in HBO's series "Rome", his best tough guy role. He's absolutely phenomenal in a wonderful underappreciated series. Sorry, off topic somewhat I know. Regardless, you history videos are extremely well done and informative! Your passion comes thru very well! Keep up the solid work

Do Roadblock. Especially when he lead the JOES after they were accused of treason. It was his finest moment. That arc really showed what he meant to the team and his leadership capabilities

As always this surpasses expectations and truly entertains

I can’t wait for him to show up in the newer gi joe runs it makes me so happy to see gi joe and transformers get some new love and attention

I hope you’ll do Overkill he’s one of the coolest Cobra villains along with Storm Shadow and Firefly.

I always get Firefly & Beach Head mixed up, even now

I have to correct you: Larry Hama did not answer letters back in issue 27. The editor, Denny O'Neil replied that Firefly was not a ninja. Since Larry wrote GI JOE page by page, I doubt that he knew that he was a going to make Firefly a ninja at that point....

I had the first version of this Action Figure when I was a kid. I had no clue what a Saboteur was but, I knew that it was cool and Firefly became one of my favorite characters. I think it was the mystique of the madk AND the shadow camouflage. Kinda gave me a Batman vibe. 😎🇨🇦

Cool dude

thank you for the information yes I would like to know why did Destro wear a metal mask I found out in the movies while he was a one but is the comic books is the same

I just got his classified fig in the mail today! It’s so fucking dope!

Totally awesome figure

Waiting for Shipwreck & Spirit-Iron Knife

Next, can you do Alley Viper or the Ninja Force? ? ?

He's a Pyro

My absolute favorite G.I. Joe character: he’s so dang awesome! Im actually trying to make an airsoft cosplay of firefly, but I’m a little stumped on the cross-bandolier. Anyone got any idea how to pull that off?

I guess all us kids made him a ninja because he looked like one.

There actually was no love triangle. The cartoon and the comic had their own continuities. Larry Hama never watched or referenced the cartoon. Snake Eyes and Scarlett were always an item in the comic and Duke was never part of that. Sunbow/Hasbro decided to make Duke and Scarlett an item in the cartoon and Snake Eyes was never part of that...

Actually, Firefly just showed up in the mini Hama did that focused on Helix. He was hired by the group Helix is after to stop her. He does, but in the end a team of G.I. Joes shows up (looking for Helix) and he ends up caught. He betrays his employer by rating her out so she shoots him. In turn, Firefly detonates an explosive device on her which blows her jaw almost off! The mini ended with Firefly in Joe custody.

I'm FIREFLY

Dang bro you forgot to mention Firefly live action debut in G.I. Joe: Retaliation portrayed by actor Ray Stevenson who was awesome in that role.

I’m always tough that Firefly was a Joe.

Gi joes villan names are cooler...

I was the 1000th like.

Uh are people aware that there's also a dc super villain who gose by the name firefly?
