Billy

Billy is the son of Cobra Commander, the ruthless leader of the terrorist organization Cobra. Raised in the shadow of his father's fanaticism, Billy's early life was shaped entirely by his connection to one of G.I. Joe's most dangerous enemies.

Introduced in the pages of G.I. Joe, a Real American Hero #10 back in 1983, Billy is a Bronze Age creation of the legendary Larry Hama — a figure whose presence in the G.I. Joe universe has quietly resonated across an remarkable four-plus decades of storytelling. Sharing the page with titans of the franchise like Cobra Commander, Snake-Eyes, and Hawk, Billy occupies some genuinely charged corners of this world, with three of his appearances earning key-issue recognition among collectors. With 34 catalog appearances spread across G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero, G.I. Joe: Frontline, and G.I. Joe proper, he's a recurring thread woven through one of comics' most beloved military adventure sagas — the kind of character that rewards the reader who pays close attention.
