Powers and Abilities : Firefly has no superhuman abilities. A renowned expert in pyrotechnics and explosives, Garfield makes up for his lack of powers with a insulated battlesuit, equipped with a jetpack and wings that allow him to achieve atmospheric flight. Firefly's battle suit is also equipped with a flamethrower, heat rays, and grenade launchers.

Weaknesses: Firefly is a pyromaniac and is psychologically compelled to commit crimes involving fires. Subtlety is not his strong point.

History : A pyrotechnics and explosives expert, Garfield Lynns rose and fell in Gotham City, achieving fame and wealth as a consultant for motion pictures, only to lose his wealth to excess spending and the bankruptcy of his employer. With nothing to his name but his lifelong pyromania, Garfield turned to crime, attempting to rob a theatre by faking a fire. With the proceeds Lynns built a battlesuit, which was inspired by fireflies. Over his criminal career Firefly's sanity has degenerated; his arson has evolved from hobby to obsession, and he is convinced he can see the future in flames. So great is Firefly's madness that even Killer Moth, who Lynns adores, has attempted to get him professional help.

Firefly has good business relationships with most of the rogues of Gotham City. Recently he was attacked by a vampiric doppelganger of Batman, and was forced to set himself on fire to drive it away. He is currently recovering in Arkham Asylum.
