BFTB Colouring Project - The Black Major

[DAMartin]

Ha-ha! Stupid assassins! Sanjit easily killed the 1st one, and now they are unknowingly acting against 's wishes! could teach those guys one or two things.

Ooh... Firefly vs Black Major... what a story that would make!

[The Kraken Wakes]

definately. have always felt firefly was a bit underused, maybe thats why i prefer him to ss though.

great colouring throughout this story!

Cheers Paul and Kraken Wakes, FireFly Vs The Black Major ..that would be a good retcon story .. there never was a Firefly (BAF version)origin story was there ? but we do get a glimpse of him without mask I reckon in World Enemy No1 (looks a bit like Johnny Red ) holding a knife in a bar that would make a decent clash I reckon , they'd be recruiting Red Shadows in that part of the world perhaps Fireflys working for ANC or Afrikana's lots of potential for a origin story there.

[The Baron]

We never saw his face. To the best of my knowledge he only appeared in World Enemy No. 1, Operation Stubborn, Project Highball and Maximum Kill!

I reckon that's him in the bar why draw it ?I doubt he's just any old Cobra Trooper the camo's a giveaway sign.. well that's my interpretation

[The Baron]

Which scene? I can't remember the bar at all.

Its after Ironblood has transformed into Cobra Commander there's a scene where Destro sends out message to criminal underworld network via computer firstly there's a panel featuring some gangster types which is then followed by the panel I described which has a white guy who I figure might be Firefly unmasked talking to a black guy there's a fat bartender speech bubble from black guy (i'm reading the black and white version btw) "It's true us mercenaries have been invited to call on a character called Cobra Commander" which the white guy whilst sharpening a knife responds "Lets get on the next flight east" ..this is followed by a scene introducing Storm Shadow.. I'd like to think that Firefly was South African seeing as they invented guerrilla warfare that kinda makes sense to me .

[The Baron]

Hrm... possibly... not convinced though!

[fuzzchile]

Well he's Mr Mystery anyhow but it may make a nice little retcon story (even if I don't show his face) somewhere down the line .
