Garfield Lynns (died January 2013) was a former firefighter who was presumed deceased in 2009, being thought to have died on duty. However, he survived and became obsessed with revenge, targeting and murdering members of his old team, who dubbed themselves The Fireflies (individual members of which, including Lynns, were referred to as The Firefly). During an attempt at killing fire chief Raynes at Oliver Queen's night club, Oliver intervened as The Hood, preventing the murder. When Oliver suggested getting him help as opposed to killing him, Lynns refused the offer and committed suicide by stepping into the nearby fire of the burning night club.
