History: Thomas Ewing was a career arsonist who had developed a costume that allowed him to continue his heated career. However, he would eventually cross paths with Nova after Firefly set fire to a nuclear station in Westhaven. The two fought and while Firefly tried to stop Nova, he found that he was immune to most of the flame attacks. Nova eventually grew tired of the destruction and threw Firefly into a nearby lake, where the contact with the water shorted the circuitry in Firefly’s armor, allowing Nova to easily capture him and bring him into custody.
Thomas would, yet again, done the Firefly armor later, and continue his career as an arsonist as he tried to burn down a building; this time bringing him into conflict with Power Man (Luke Cage) and Iron Fist, who fought Firefly until the second Crimebuster came along and covered Firefly in fire-extinguishing foam, allowing him to quickly take Firefly into custody, yet again.
