This is your death, delivered to you personally by Firebug! Did you think Tombstone would forget his men you murdered in that alley?

Firebug[source]

History

The young man who bought the right to use the name of Firebug became a member of Tombstone's gang. He was sent to Lee Price's apartment to kill him after he had murdered several of Tombstone's men during a transaction job, unaware he had been able to accomplish that because he was the new Venom.

Firebug burned down Lee's apartment and called his boss to report back, but was caught by surprise when Lee transformed into Venom. Venom then tackled Firebug through a window and into an alleyway.[1] Venom was stopped from killing Firebug by FBI Agent Wambaugh. Firebug took advantage of the distraction caused by Wambaugh's arrival to attack Venom in an attempt to get him to let go his arm. In retaliation, Venom smashed him into a nearby wall, seemingly killing him.[2]
